Gfw450ssmiw Parts

The Pressure Switch is an OEM part for GE washers. This part monitors and controls the water level inside your GE washer during the different cycles.

The water level pressure switch ensures accurate water level detection and regulation. It senses the pressure changes in the washer's tub as it fills with water, signaling the control board to stop the water flow once the appropriate level is reached.

A bad water level pressure switch can occur due to mechanical failure, electrical issues, or clogs in the pressure hose. If you notice symptoms such as the washer overfilling or underfilling with water, the water level not adjusting correctly, or error codes indicating a faulty pressure switch, it may be time to replace the component.

Symptoms of a bad water level pressure switch include:

• Washer overfilling or underfilling with water
• Water level not adjusting correctly
• Error codes indicating a faulty pressure switch

Ensure water level control by replacing the faulty water level pressure switch with this genuine OEM part.

This GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
