The Door Switch is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. This part ensures that the dryer operates safely by only allowing the machine to run when the door is completely closed. Positioned typically at the door frame, the switch activates when the door is shut, signaling the control system that it's safe to begin the cycle.

Over time, door switches can wear out or become damaged, which can interfere with the normal operation of the dryer. 

Symptoms of a faulty Door Switch include:

• The dryer not starting when the door is closed.
• The dryer stopping unexpectedly, which might be due to a loose or faulty switch.
• A lack of the usual "click" sound that indicates the door has latched properly, suggesting the switch isn’t engaging.
• The dryer continuing to run when the door is opened, which poses a significant safety risk.

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

The Push to Start Switch is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. Located on the control panel, it allows the user to initiate the drying cycle with the push of a button. This switch is designed to withstand the repetitive motions of starting countless loads over the dryer's lifespan.

Causes can be gradual wear of internal components like contact pads from activations, or moisture intrusion corroding circuit pathways over time.

Symptoms of a faulty push-to-start switch include:

• The dryer failing to start even when powered on
• Inconsistent or intermittent operation of the start button
• The dryer starting unintentionally without input

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

The Temperature Selector Switch is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. This electro-mechanical switch allows consumers to choose between heat settings that adequately dry different fabric types.

Causes of a damaged selector switch can include regular wear from hundreds of cycles over the appliance's lifetime. Mineral deposits accumulating inside linkage mechanics may cause rotational movements to stiffen. The physical impacts of shifting internal contact positions could potentially lead to switching issues as well.

Symptoms of a faulty temperature selector involve:

• Inability to change heat level for desired drying performance  
• Temperature remaining stuck on highest or lowest settings
• Lint filter or duct cleaning lights failing to illuminate properly

This OEM replacement is compatible with some Kenmore and KitchenAid electric dryer models too.

This door switch senses whether the appliance door is closed and signals the controls to run only when it's safe. Replacing a worn or intermittent switch restores dependable starts and proper shutoff when the door opens. What it does:

• Interrupts operation when the door opens for safety
• Common symptoms include: won't start, stops when the door is moved, or "door open" message/error
• Intermittent starts due to worn actuator or internal switch contacts

• 1 door switch

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the switch from the front or top panel; release mounting screws or tabs
• Move wires to the new switch one at a time to maintain correct positions, then secure the switch
• Test operation before reassembly
