Description

The Door Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers, designed to ensure the appliance operates safely by detecting whether the dryer door is open or closed. This switch plays a crucial role in the dryer's operation, as it prevents the dryer from running when the door is not securely latched, thereby ensuring safety during its use. 

The primary reasons for replacing the Door Switch often involve wear and tear from regular use, damage from an overloaded door, or accidental impacts that compromise the switch's integrity. 

Symptoms for a replacement Door Switch include:

• The dryer not starting or operating when the door is closed
• The dryer continuing to run when the door is opened
• Unusual noises or the appliance starting and stopping abruptly, which may indicate a faulty connection

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
