• Carries mixed water from the mixing valve to the tee fitting for distribution
• Restores proper water routing when the original hose is damaged or leaking
• Helps stop drips, sprays, or puddling caused by cracked or failed hoses
• Helps maintain consistent water flow needed for correct wash temperatures

• One hose

• Turn off water supply and run a drain cycle to relieve pressure before replacing
• Inspect and reuse or replace any O-rings or seals as required; ensure fittings are clean
• Hand-start fittings, then snug with a wrench; avoid overtightening which can damage fittings
• After installation, check all connections for leaks during a short test cycle

• Helps prevent overfilling or underfilling caused by a bad level signal
• Resolves symptoms like no fill, overfill, or erratic cycle advancement
• Works as the washer's water-level sensor interface to the main control

• One variable pressure switch

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before servicing
• Replace only with the exact part number; match electrical connector and hose fittings
• Handle the pressure hose and terminals carefully to avoid damage
