Description

This service access switch is the OEM-style replacement switch that detects and secures the appliance's service or control access point, helping technicians safely access internal components during diagnostics and repair. What it does:

• Detects whether the service/access panel or console is opened and signals the control board accordingly
• Helps prevent operation while the access panel is open for safer service
• Restores proper access-sensing when a worn or failed switch causes service-mode or control interlock issues
• Compatible where the appliance uses a dedicated access/service switch for control-board interlock functions

What's included: One service access switch Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Remove necessary panels or console to access and replace the switch
• Handle near control boards with care to avoid ESD damage; reconnect all wiring securely
• After installation, restore power and verify the switch correctly senses panel position and that the appliance operates normally
