Description

This door tilt switch senses whether a door is closed or open and sends that signal to the appliance so cycles and lights operate correctly. Replaces a worn or failed door-position sensor to restore normal door-controlled operation. What it does:

• Detects door open/closed position and signals the appliance control
• Helps ensure cycles only start when the door is properly closed
• Commonly replaced when the appliance won't start or respond when the door is closed

What's included:

• One door tilt switch

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Handle surrounding trim or glass carefully; some disassembly of the door or control area may be required
• Test the switch with a multimeter before final reassembly
• Refer to the appliance's service manual or manufacturer instructions for exact replacement steps
