• Provides the structural mounting surface for control assemblies and trim
• Protects internal components from dust and everyday wear

This Door Switch is an OEM part for GE dryers. This switch is designed to detect the state of the dryer door, allowing the appliance to operate only when the door is securely closed. This safety mechanism prevents the dryer from running with an open door, which could pose risks and reduce efficiency. 

The need to replace the door switch can arise from mechanical wear, damage from frequent usage, or electrical faults. A faulty door switch can lead to several operational issues in the dryer.

Symptoms of a bad Door Switch include:

• The dryer not starting or operating, despite the door being closed.
• The dryer continues to run when the door is opened.
• Intermittent stopping or starting of the dryer during cycles.
• Unusual behavior or responses from the dryer when the door is interacted with.

This GE OEM replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
