Description

This slide switch is the user control that changes settings by sliding a selector—commonly used on appliance control panels to select cycles or options. It restores reliable tactile control and clear position feedback. What it does:

• Acts as the sliding selector on the appliance control panel to change settings or modes
• Completes or interrupts the control circuit when moved to different positions
• Commonly replaces a worn, sticky, or non-responsive selector that fails to change settings
• Helps eliminate intermittent or no-response symptoms caused by a damaged slide actuator

What's included:

• One slide switch

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before attempting replacement to avoid shock or injury
• Access may require removing the control panel or console—keep fasteners organized
• Verify switch orientation and wiring before disconnecting; note wire locations or take a photo
• No calibration is typically required after replacement; test functions before full reassembly
