Magic Chef Washer Switch

This water level pressure switch senses tub water level through the air hose and signals the control when to stop filling at the selected setting. It helps prevent overfilling and ensures proper wash and rinse performance.

• Monitors water level via internal diaphragm and air-tube pressure
• Signals the control/timer to open or close the inlet valves at the chosen level
• Allows the cycle to advance once the correct fill is reached
• Common failure symptoms include overfilling, underfilling, continuous filling, or cycle stalling while waiting to fill

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Access the console; move wire connectors and the pressure hose to the new switch one at a time
• Inspect the pressure hose for cracks, kinks, or leaks; seat it fully on the switch port
• Run a quick fill test to ensure water stops at the selected level before reassembly

This lid switch assembly kit is the washer's safety interlock. It detects when the lid is closed so the control can allow the machine to spin, helping restore safe, reliable operation when the original switch fails.

• Senses lid closed and enables the spin cycle
• Prevents spinning with the lid open for safety
• Common failure symptoms: no spin or intermittent spin
• Requires pressing or jiggling the lid to run; no audible "click" when closing the lid

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the switch under the top/console area; remove the old switch/bracket as designed
• Route wiring along the original path and secure away from moving parts
• Align the actuator so the lid reliably engages the switch; test spin operation before reassembly
