The Pressure Bulb Assembly is an OEM part for Speed Queen washers. It senses water levels and detects leaks in the washing machine. The pressure bulb works with other components to monitor water levels and cut off water flow if an issue is detected.
Causes of a bad pressure bulb can include cracks, leaks or bursting due to age, pressure fluctuations or impact damage.
Symptoms of a bad Pressure Bulb include:
- Erratic or inconsistent water levels during fills
- Inability to properly detect leaks
- Premature or delayed shut-off of water inlet valves
- Potential water damage due to undetected leaks
