If the door switch is faulty, it can prevent the washer from starting or cause it to stop mid-cycle. This repair is relatively quick and easy, and with the right tools and instructions, you should be able to complete it in no time.

We recommend consulting your manufacturer&#8217;s documentation or<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/repair-help\/\"> <b>contact us<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with any questions.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What does the door switch do?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you start a wash cycle, the door switch engages, locking the door to prevent it from accidentally opening while the washer is in operation. This safety feature prevents any potential hazards that may arise from an open door while the drum is spinning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The door switch communicates with the main control board, relaying information about the door&#8217;s position. This information is used for the washer to initiate or continue a cycle. If the door switch is faulty, the washer may not start at all or may stop working midway through a cycle.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is the door switch bad?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Testing the door switch with a multimeter is a great idea before replacing it unnecessarily. Here&#8217;s a guide on how to test it:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that the washer is completely disconnected from the power source to avoid any risk of electric shock.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Set your multimeter to the resistance or continuity testing mode. Refer to the user manual of your multimeter for specific instructions on how to set it to the appropriate mode.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take the two multimeter probes, one red and one black, and insert them into the corresponding ports on your multimeter. The red probe should be inserted into the port labeled &#8220;COM&#8221; or &#8220;Common,&#8221; while the black probe should be inserted into the port labeled &#8220;\u03a9&#8221; or &#8220;Ohms.&#8221;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Touch the metal tips of the multimeter probes together to check that the multimeter is working correctly. The reading on the multimeter should show near-zero resistance or indicate continuity.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the door switch disconnected from the washer, touch one multimeter probe to each of the switch&#8217;s terminals. The terminals are the metal contact points where the wires connect to the switch.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Observe the multimeter reading. If the door switch is functioning correctly, the multimeter should display a reading close to zero resistance or indicate continuity. This indicates that the circuit is complete and the switch is working as intended.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the multimeter shows infinite resistance or does not indicate continuity, it suggests that the door switch is faulty and needs to be replaced.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manually activate the switch and test again. It should read open or closed depending on the position it is in.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tools needed<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flathead screwdriver<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Phillips screwdriver<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locking pliers<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Safety precautions<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always power off and unplug your appliance or switch off the circuit breaker before attempting any maintenance or replacement work.

Keep children and pets away from the work area.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Never work on internal parts with bare wet hands. Make sure the work area is completely dry.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check your user manual to see if there are specific installation or safety instructions for your part or appliance.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be gentle when handling or removing parts. Excessive force might damage the appliance or cause injury.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wear safety glasses when working with chemicals, dust or cleaning large debris to prevent injury.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the appliance has recently been used, give it plenty of time for any heating parts to cool down before working on it.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Replacement steps<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Step 1<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open the door of the washer and locate the door boot seal clamp.
