Frigidaire Dryer Switch

The Turn Start Switch is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It is responsible for initiating the drying cycle when the switch is turned. This switch is a critical component that engages the dryer’s motor and starts the drying process, ensuring your clothes are dried effectively.

You should replace the turn start switch if it becomes faulty or unresponsive. Causes of a bad start switch can include regular wear and tear from frequent use, electrical issues, or damage due to excessive force or mishandling.

Symptoms of a bad turn start switch include:

• Dryer not starting when the switch is turned
• Intermittent starting issues
• The switch feeling loose or not engaging properly

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

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.

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:

• Detects door position and allows operation only when the door is fully closed
• 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

The Door Switch is an OEM part for Frigidaire clothes dryers. It is an electronic component located on the door frame that detects when the dryer door is latched closed. The switch communicates this information to the control board, allowing the dryer to operate properly by preventing operation if the door is open.

Causes of a bad door switch can include normal wear and tear from opening and closing the dryer door over time. Physical damage from accidental impacts or overtightening of door mounting hardware may also cause switch failure.

Symptoms of a bad dryer door switch include:

• The dryer starting a cycle even when the door is open
• Error codes or failure to start/run if the door switch does not detect proper closure
• Other control issues related to incorrectly sensing door position

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

This door-activated light switch controls the interior lamp in your refrigerator. Replace a worn or sticking switch to restore dependable lighting and prevent the bulb from staying on and warming the compartment when the door is closed.

• Opens and closes the light circuit as the door is opened and closed
• Helps prevent the light from staying on with the door shut
• Common symptoms: interior light won't turn on, stays on with the door closed, or works intermittently
• Physical signs may include a stuck/broken plunger or damaged housing

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Gently pry the old switch from the liner/panel and release its locking tabs
• Transfer wires one at a time to the same terminals on the new switch
• Press the new switch fully into place; restore power, and test

This door switch detects whether the appliance door is open or closed. A working switch lets the machine start when the door is fully shut and stops operation when the door opens for safety.

• Monitors door position and allows the cycle to run only when closed
• Interrupts power to stop operation when the door opens
• Common symptoms of a failing switch: appliance won't start with the door closed, must press/hold the door to run, interior light stuck on/off, or a "door open" message on models with a display

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Access the switch at the door opening/front panel; release mounting screws or locking tabs and remove the switch
• Move wires to the new switch one at a time to maintain correct positions
• After reassembly, test switch operation before running a cycle

This push start switch is the user-operated momentary button that completes the start circuit so the appliance begins its cycle. It replaces a worn or unresponsive start button to restore reliable start control. What it does:

• Acts as a momentary contact to send the start signal to the control
• Commonly used when the appliance does not begin a cycle after pressing the start button
• Can fail from wear, corrosion, or broken actuator, causing no response or intermittent starts
• Works with the factory wiring and mounting for direct replacement

• One push start switch

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before performing service
• Handle terminals carefully; ensure secure, corrosion-free connections
• Test the switch for continuity with a meter after installation and before restoring full use
