Ldf68105t/01 Parts

Sump assembly collects and channels a washer's drained water into the drain pump to let the machine empty properly. Replacing a worn or cracked sump helps stop leaks and restores normal draining performance. What it does:

• Directs and funnels tub water to the drain pump so the washer can evacuate water.
• Prevents water from leaking under the washer when intact and properly sealed.
• Can cause poor or no draining, standing water in the tub, or drain/pump-related error codes when damaged.
• May produce unusual noises during the drain cycle if cracked or clogged.

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before starting any repair.
• Access typically requires removing the washer's front or lower access panel; support the machine as needed.
• Inspect and replace any worn seals, hoses, or clamps when installing to ensure a watertight fit.
• After installation, run a short drain/spin cycle and check for leaks before returning the washer to regular use.

The Micro Switch is an OEM part for LG dishwashers. It plays a crucial role in detecting when the door is securely closed prior to starting a cycle. This important safety feature prevents accidental exposure to hot water, detergent, and chemicals. 

Causes of a bad micro switch include degradation from years of repeated use, debris interfering with mechanisms, or damage from attempts to force or slam the dishwasher door closed.

Symptoms of a bad micro switch include:

• Cycles failing to start despite a closed door
• Hot water or steam visible escaping when running 
• The dishwasher not detecting the closed door position
• Error codes displayed related to door position sensors

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore. Replacing only when truly faulty helps ensure safe and reliable dishwasher function.
