Dishwasher Latch Switch Parts

Color: Bisque

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.
