The Pressure Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This switch monitors the water level inside the washer tub and signals the control board to stop filling and start the wash cycle once the desired water level is reached. 

Causes of a bad pressure switch can include electrical malfunctions, wear and tear from regular use, or blockages in the pressure hose that connects to the switch.

Symptoms of a bad pressure switch include:

  • The washing machine overfilling or underfilling with water
  • The washer not advancing to the next cycle
  • Error codes related to water level sensing
  • Inconsistent water levels during different cycles

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
