Dishwasher Switch Surface Element Parts

This push-button door switch detects when the appliance door opens and closes, enabling the interior light and informing the control system. Replacing a faulty switch restores normal door-sensing and light operation. What it does:

• Activates the interior light when the door opens and turns it off when closed
• Sends a door-open/closed signal to the appliance control so timed features behave correctly
• Commonly replaces a switch that causes the light to stay off or fail to turn off
• Helps eliminate intermittent lighting or door-sensing problems

• Disconnect power before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Access may require removing the light housing or door trim; keep fasteners for reassembly
• Verify the old switch matches this part number and connector style before installing

An integrated door switch for dishwashers that senses when the door is closed and allows the machine to start. Replacing a worn or damaged switch restores normal operation and helps prevent cycles from running with an open door. What it does:

• Detects door-closed position and tells the control board the door is secure
• Enables the dishwasher to start cycles only when the door is properly latched
• Prevents operation or pauses cycles if the door is open or not fully closed
• Common symptom: dishwasher won't start or stops mid-cycle when the door is opened

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any service.
• Access typically requires removing the inner door panel or toe-kick; handle the door carefully to avoid damage.
• Replace the switch and reconnect wiring exactly as removed; ensure connectors are fully seated.
• After installation, restore power and ensure the door registers closed and the unit starts normally.

The Push Button Switch is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. It is an electro-mechanical button located on the control panel that allows users to select options and operate wash cycle features. 

Causes of a bad switch could be repeated pressing over time deteriorating the button mechanism. Liquid intrusion into the switch housing may also cause the failure of electronic components.

Symptoms of a failed switch include:

• The associated function no longer responds to button presses  
• Erratic or intermittent behavior when selecting options
• The switch button becomes stuck in the depressed position

Compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore models as well, this switch helps prevent further control panel issues down the line.

This switch interlock assembly secures the appliance door and completes the electrical circuit so the unit can start and run safely. Replacing a worn interlock restores reliable door sensing and helps ensure normal cycle operation. What it does:

• Detects and holds the door/lid closed so the appliance will start
• Completes the electrical pathway for motor and control circuits
• Prevents operation when the door is open or not fully latched
• Can stop mid-cycle or prevent starting when the interlock fails

• One switch interlock assembly

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off the breaker) before replacing the part
• Handle mounting screws and wiring harness carefully; match connector orientation when reinstalling
• Verify door alignment and latch function before restoring power

The Float Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It is a safety component that detects water levels and monitors flood conditions. The float switch ensures the dishwasher only runs water when needed and shuts off water flow if it detects a potential leak or overflow situation. 

Symptoms of a bad float switch include: 

• The dishwasher fails to fill with water or stop the water when the cycle is complete
• Loud buzzing or humming noises coming from the float switch area  
• Water leaks inside or outside of the dishwasher due to overfilling
• Repeated error codes related to flooding or water level detection

Causes of a bad float switch could be wear and tear over time, defective wiring or electronic components inside the switch, or damage from moisture or leaks. 

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This heating element assembly supplies heat for tumble drying, restoring warm airflow so clothes dry efficiently. It replaces a failed or burned element to help return normal drying performance. What it does:

• Generates the hot air used to dry clothes by heating incoming air that circulates through the drum
• Commonly replaces a burned-out or open element that causes no heat or reduced heat
• Helps address symptoms like cool air from the dryer, extended dry times, or loads that never fully dry
• Works with the dryer's safety thermostats and fuses to regulate operating temperature

• Heating element assembly (1)

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the dryer before starting any repair
• Allow all components to cool and wear gloves to avoid sharp edges
• Basic hand tools are typically required; follow the dryer's service manual for safe removal and reassembly
• If the dryer still has heating issues after replacement, inspect thermostats, thermal fuses, and wiring

This motor wax lubricant conditions dryer motor bearings and helps reduce noise from dry or worn spots. It's a simple maintenance item that restores smooth rotation and can help extend motor life when applied as directed. What it does:

• Lubricates motor bearings and low-friction surfaces to reduce squeaks and grinding noises
• Helps prevent metal-on-metal wear caused by dry spots during operation
• Restores smooth rotation for quieter, more efficient motor performance
• Safe for typical dryer motor materials when used per manufacturer guidance

• One motor wax lubricant packet

• Apply only to the exact bearing or shaft surfaces specified by the manufacturer; do not over-apply
• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the motor or applying lubricant
• Avoid getting wax on belts, pulleys, electrical components, or brake surfaces
• If motor noise persists after application, inspect motor and related parts for wear or damage
