Description

This double valve switch assembly controls two valve circuits to manage water flow and valve operation in compatible appliances. It replaces a failed switch to restore proper valve control and appliance function. What it does:

• Allows the appliance control board to open and close water valves as needed
• Commonly linked to symptoms like no fill, continuous fill, or intermittent valve operation
• Helps stop erratic or unresponsive valve behavior when the original switch fails

What's included:

• One double valve switch assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Verify power is off with a meter and document wire locations or take photos before disconnecting
• Handle connectors carefully; ensure proper seating and secure mounting during reassembly
