The Door Switch is an OEM part for Frigidaire clothes dryers. It is an electronic component located on the door frame that detects when the dryer door is latched closed. The switch communicates this information to the control board, allowing the dryer to operate properly by preventing operation if the door is open.

Causes of a bad door switch can include normal wear and tear from opening and closing the dryer door over time. Physical damage from accidental impacts or overtightening of door mounting hardware may also cause switch failure.

Symptoms of a bad dryer door switch include:

• The dryer starting a cycle even when the door is open
• Error codes or failure to start/run if the door switch does not detect proper closure
• Other control issues related to incorrectly sensing door position

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

This 3-position fabric selector switch is the control behind the knob that lets you choose the fabric setting on your unit. Replacing a worn switch restores positive detents and ensures your selection is recognized instead of ignored or stuck.
