Float

The Float Assembly is an OEM part for LG washing machines. This part monitors and controls the water level within the appliance. It's a safety feature that prevents water overflow and potential flooding, contributing to the efficient operation of the washing machine by maintaining the correct water level for each cycle.

Causes of a bad Float Assembly can vary from simple blockages that prevent the float from moving freely to electrical faults within the switch mechanism. 

Symptoms of a bad Float Assembly include:

• Water overflowing from the washing machine
• Inadequate water levels that affect the washing cycle's effectiveness
• The washing machine failing to start the fill cycle due to a malfunctioning float switch

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

This replacement ball is the small spherical component used in select Whirlpool-built mechanisms. It acts as a moving seal or detent to control flow or position, restoring smooth, reliable operation when the original ball is worn or missing. What it does:

• Provides the sealing or detent action within its valve, hinge, or track assembly
• Helps prevent backflow, leaks, or unwanted movement
• Restores smooth operation when mechanisms feel rough, bind, or won't stay in position
• Replace if the original is deformed, pitted, corroded, or missing

• 1 ball

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply if applicable
• Access the specific assembly per your model's service documentation and note part order
• Place the ball in its seat/track with any companion spring or seal as designed
• Inspect mating surfaces and related seals or springs and replace if worn

A small sealing ball used in a valve assembly to control fluid flow and maintain a watertight seal. Replaces a worn or damaged valve ball to restore proper sealing and prevent leaks or improper filling. What it does

• Acts as a one-way seal inside a valve or dispenser, allowing flow in the intended direction and blocking backflow.
• Helps stop leaks by seating against a valve seat to create a watertight seal.
• Worn, cracked, or stuck check balls can cause slow or no fill, continuous flow, or leaking from the valve area.
• Functions silently; failure may present as intermittent filling issues or visible leakage.

• One check ball

• Designed to fit inside the valve/dispenser assembly—access requires removing the valve housing or relevant cover.
• Inspect the valve seat and surrounding components for wear or debris; clean before installing the new ball.
• Use manufacturer-recommended tools and follow safety steps: disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off water supply before servicing.
