Description

This pressure switch senses the washer's tub water level and signals the control to stop filling and advance the cycle. Replacing a faulty switch restores proper fill levels and helps resolve overfilling, no-fill, and cycle-advance issues.

• Monitors water level via air pressure through the tub's pressure hose
• Signals the control to shut the inlet valves and begin wash/agitate or spin
• Helps advance the cycle once the target water level is reached
• Common failure symptoms include continuous filling/overfill, no fill or low fill, won't agitate/spin, or stopping mid-cycle with water-level errors

What's included: 1 pressure switch Install notes:

• Unplug the washer before servicing; turn off water supply
• Access the switch in the control console/top panel; move wire connectors to the new switch one at a time
• Inspect the pressure hose for kinks, cracks, or water in the line and seat it firmly on the new switch
• Run a test fill to ensure the water shuts off at the selected level
