• Helps resolve symptoms like controls that don't respond, intermittent operation, or failure to detect a door/position
• Restores reliable signaling between the user/door mechanism and the appliance control
• Used where a failed switch prevents normal start, selection changes, or safety interlocks from engaging

What's included:

• One switch-sensor switch assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any service to avoid shock or injury
• Access typically requires removing a panel or bezel; handle clips and connectors gently to avoid damage
