Description

The Push-to-Start Switch is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. This component is the button you press to initiate the drying cycle. Once pressed, the switch sends an electrical signal to the dryer's motor, activating the machine and beginning the drying process.

Causes for a malfunctioning Push-to-Start Switch can include electrical issues, wear and tear from frequent use, or damage due to mishandling or accidental impact.

Symptoms of a bad Push-to-Start Switch include:

• Dryer not starting despite pressing the button
• The need to press the button multiple times for activation
• Intermittent starting and stopping of the dryer
• Unusual sounds when pressing the switch

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