Description

This door switch completes the circuit that tells the appliance the door is closed so cycles can start or continue. It replaces a worn or non-responsive door switch to restore reliable door-sensing operation. What it does

• Detects when the door is closed and signals the control to start or resume a cycle.
• Stops operation or prevents cycle start when the door is open or the switch fails.
• Commonly replaces a switch that is stuck, intermittent, or not registering door closure.
• Helps resolve symptoms like appliances not starting, stopping mid-cycle, or failing to latch electronically.

What's included

• One door switch (single push-button style), exact OEM configuration as shown.

Install notes

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before accessing the switch.
• Access may require removing a panel or inner door assembly.
• Handle connectors carefully; remove and reconnect wiring harnesses by the plug, not the wires.
