Restore proper fill control with this washer water level pressure switch. It senses air pressure from the tub and signals the controls to start or stop filling, helping prevent overfilling and ensuring the correct water level for each cycle.

• Monitors tub water level through the attached air hose and opens/closes switch contacts to control the inlet valves
• Helps prevent overfilling and underfilling by signaling when the selected level is reached
• Common symptoms of a failing switch: overfilling, won't stop filling, incorrect water level, or cycle won't start/advance because level isn't detected
• Replacing a faulty switch can resolve fill/level issues once the pressure hose is clear and intact

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before servicing
• Access the control console; remove the old switch and label/transfer wire connectors
• Move the air tube to the new switch; ensure an airtight, kink-free connection and inspect/clear the tube of debris
• Mount the new switch, reassemble, and run a test fill to verify proper operation

This lid switch detects when the washer lid is closed and signals the control to allow motor operation. Replacing a faulty switch restores normal cycle starts and the washer's safety interlock. What it does:

• Detects lid position and completes the electrical circuit so the washer can start and run.
• Acts as the safety interlock that prevents the motor from running with the lid open.
• A failing switch can prevent the washer from starting, stop spin or agitation, or cause cycles to stop unexpectedly.
• Replaces the lid-actuated switch used in top-load washers' control/interlock system.

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before beginning work.
• May require removing the washer top or control panel to access the switch—keep track of fasteners and connectors.
• Handle electrical connectors gently and verify connections are secure; test the new switch only after restoring power per manufacturer guidance.

The Dispenser Switch is an OEM component for Whirlpool washing machines. Located inside the detergent compartment, it detects when the door is properly closed to enable cycle functions.   

The sensitive switch utilizes durable contacts to reliably connect without false readings due to vibration. Its secure plastic housing contains electronic components regulating additive distribution during selected cycles.

Symptoms of a bad dispenser switch can include:

• Inability to start cycles despite closed door
• Dispenser door fails to lock properly   
• Fault codes relating to dispenser issues  
• Cycles unexpectedly terminating mid-load

Replace yours today with this genuine Whirlpool switch to ensure detergent and other additives activate at optimal times for thorough, even cleaning. Compatible with Kenmore, Maytag, and some Jenn-Air washers.

This compressor overload protects the refrigerator's compressor by interrupting power when it overheats or draws excessive current. Replacing a weak or failed overload can stop repeated click/no-start symptoms and help restore normal cooling performance.

• Opens the circuit to protect the compressor during overheat or over-current conditions
• Automatically resets after cooling to prevent sustained damage
• Symptoms include: compressor won't start, rapid clicking from the compressor area, starts then stops, and a warm refrigerator/freezer
• Helps prevent motor and wiring damage caused by repeated overload events

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear appropriate PPE
• Access the rear machine compartment and remove the compressor/start device cover
• Note wire positions; pull the old overload straight off the compressor terminal and push the new one on fully seated; reconnect wiring and covers
• If the overload trips again after replacement, further diagnosis of the start relay, run capacitor, or compressor may be required

This Temperature Controller regulates cooling by switching power to the compressor and related circuits to hold the set temperature. Replacing a failing controller restores accurate temperature control and reliable operation. What it does:

• Cycles cooling components to maintain the temperature you set
• Helps keep cabinet temperatures consistent for proper food storage
• Coordinates on/off operation to prevent overcooling or warm conditions
• Common failure symptoms: too warm or too cold, runs constantly or won't start, control/dial unresponsive

• 1 temperature controller

• Disconnect power before servicing—this is a line-voltage control
• Access the control area, label or photograph wire positions, and move wires one at a time to the new controller
• Reuse existing mounting hardware and any knob/overlay as applicable
• After install, set to mid setting and allow up to 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize

This lid switch assembly kit is the washer's safety interlock. It detects when the lid is closed so the control can allow the machine to spin, helping restore safe, reliable operation when the original switch fails.

• Senses lid closed and enables the spin cycle
• Prevents spinning with the lid open for safety
• Common failure symptoms: no spin or intermittent spin
• Requires pressing or jiggling the lid to run; no audible "click" when closing the lid

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the switch under the top/console area; remove the old switch/bracket as designed
• Route wiring along the original path and secure away from moving parts
• Align the actuator so the lid reliably engages the switch; test spin operation before reassembly

This start relay controls power to the compressor's start winding so the refrigerator can start and run. Replacing a weak or burned relay restores dependable compressor start-up and can stop repeated clicking with warming temperatures.

• Energizes the compressor's start winding to provide initial torque, then disengages from the circuit
• Common failure symptoms: refrigerator not cooling or intermittently warm; compressor hums/clicks and won't start; relay rattles, smells burnt, or shows heat damage; overload trips
• Helps prevent hard-start conditions that stress the compressor
• The relay contacts are open/shorted, the compressor may fail to start and cycle off on overload

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear appropriate PPE
• Access the rear machine compartment; remove the relay cover on the compressor. Note wire positions, pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins, transfer wires, and fully seat the new relay in the same orientation
• If equipped, safely discharge the run capacitor; inspect the overload, wiring, and terminals for heat damage and address as needed
• Reinstall the cover. If the compressor still won't start, further diagnosis of the start device, capacitor, or compressor is required

This overload relay protects and helps start the refrigerator/freezer compressor by cutting power if the motor overheats or draws excessive current. Replaces a failed relay to restore normal compressor start and protect the compressor from damage. What it does:

• Senses excessive compressor current or heat and interrupts power to prevent motor damage
• Works with the compressor start device to help the compressor start reliably
• Commonly replaces a failed relay when the compressor hums but won't start or the refrigerator is not cooling
• Helps prevent repeated compressor attempts that can trip breakers or overheat wiring

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing electrical components
• Handle terminals carefully; ensure correct seating on the compressor motor pins
• Only install parts that match the appliance's service literature and wiring configuration

A film radial capacitor used in appliance electrical assemblies to stabilize voltage and support motor and control circuits. Replaces a worn or failed film capacitor to restore consistent operation and reduce electrical noise. What it does:

• Smooths and stabilizes voltage in motor and control circuits to help maintain reliable operation
• Reduces electrical noise that can cause humming or erratic behavior in appliances
• Helps ensure consistent motor start/run performance when the capacitor is the cause of symptoms
• Commonly replaced when appliances exhibit intermittent starts, humming, or control board errors linked to compromised capacitors

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing electrical components
• Discharge the capacitor safely before touching terminals to avoid shock
• Observe correct polarity/terminal orientation and secure connections per OEM guidance
