Kenmore / Sears Washer Switch

• Won't start

I was searching the web for solutions and came across two folks who had similar trouble code. One fixed his by removing the pump strainer from the pump to find coins blocking water flow, thus the analog water pressure sensor provided a failure response. My issue was solved by following the other hints I got. I ordered a new sensor (switch). It was expensive for what it is, but the washer will not run correctly without it! The part arrived in a very timely manner, and it was the right part.... Read more

Ordered the right part, took the back off the top control panel, and popped it in. Read more

I replaced the assembly behind the water level knob. I watched the video on appliancepartspros.com before starting, and then watched it again in short portions while going thru the repair process. Read more

• No hot or cold water

I tested the Atc. mid level switch, with my multi tester and found it was not sending enough current to the cold water inlet valve, so it would not open and let cold water in. I replaced the switch, (it was a snap) literally it snapped in place. replace the front face and turned the water back on and plugged in the washer, and turned it on. It worked perfect and has been since. good and easy repair even for a novice like me.. Read more

After the part arrives, I was double check to make sure I got the right part. Importantly, unplug the electrical power first before do anything, also turn off the water hose for safety. Then removed 4 screw out side panel and 2 screw in side to get lose. After all, replaced a new part and put all panel and screw back together. Finally, plug in electrical power then a water hose and test a new part just installed. So far so good, seem like everything was function OK. Again, thanks for your web... Read more

Was set to pull the trigger on a new washer since this one was 10+ years old. Broke a $25 lid switch fumbling to get the washer open before I found the appliancepros video library. Once I got things apart the right way I was able to diagnose the problem in 5 minutes. Identified the $10 part needed. Got the $10 coupling and the $25 switch and had the washer working like new in 20 minutes. I'm pretty proud of myself.. not going to tell anyone about the $25 switch. Read more

Removed front of dryer panel, removed top, and removed drum. Replaced motor and wheel, because the old wheel was rusted on the motor shaft, and could not be removed, so I had to break it off. Replaced motor, and reassembled. Everything works now. I also replace the switch-Pb, because the start button was getting stuck. Read more

I installed it and now my dryer timer works great.Thanks to APPs for their help and ease of ordering and fast shipping. I highly recommend AppliancePartPros and will definitely use... Read more

Replaced with a new one. Read more

APPs stellar videos got me started with confidence. Your parts diagram exactly match mine for my 28 year old Sears Kenmore Gas Model 110-97588210 (75882). Teacher at TMM Appliance convinced me to approach from the simpler, cheaper, easier to access parts inwards using the wiring diagram. I’ve designed products for Klein, Halo, and JUNO but am just an advanced electrical amateur. 3 parts totaling $110 and two hours and it runs and heats to spec. Even had time to vacuum out all over the lower... Read more

Called appliance parts and asked, what was the fix. Told it was fill switch and that I could order it. I was amazed that I received the part the next day without even asking for overnight delivery. I installed the part in less then 20 min. Problem fixed.. Read more

The E32 diagnostic code that the Frigidaire washer was throwing after a quick water fill attempt was not in the supplied Data Sheet that came with the washer and Frigidaire would not provide and updated Data Sheet because, "it's a liabiliity issue" was their statement, but they did tell me that the problem was in the Fill Pressure Sensor/Wire Harness or the Main Control Board (the display board). I ordered the Pressure Sensor and Main Control Board from AppliancePartsPros after checking... Read more

I found that turning the water level switch back and forth would activate the machine So I replaced the water level switch and the plastic hose that connected to it. I purchased a clamp in the purchase, but it was the wrong size! There wasn't a clamp used in the original set up, so I installed the switch and hose without it! It was the video instructions and having the correct parts that made that made this a easy repair! Thank You Read more
