Description

This start button and light guide assembly replaces the control panel start key and its internal light diffuser to restore push-button operation and the illuminated start indicator. It fits behind the console to engage the washer/dryer cycle and show status. What it does:

• Provides the tactile start button surface and the internal light guide that directs the panel illumination.
• Restores proper button actuation when the start key no longer responds or feels loose.
• Re-establishes the illuminated start indicator when the button backlight is dim, cracked, or misaligned.
• Works with the console overlay to transmit user input to the control board.

What's included: One start button and light guide assembly. Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or damage.
• Access typically requires removing the control panel or console; handle plastic clips and connectors carefully to avoid breakage.
• Align the light guide to the button and seat clips fully before reassembling the panel.
• If the button still does not operate after installation, verify the switch and control board function—this part replaces the button/light assembly only.
