Washing Machine Pressure Switch

Washing Machine Pressure Switch

Important: Use the "Check this part fits your appliance" box above to make sure this product fits your appliance.

Washing machine and washer dryer level switches are essentially the component that detects the water level in the drum.

Ordinarily, this is done via a pipe or hose that connects to either the sump hose (the hose from the tub to the pump housing) or directly from the pump housing chamber.

As the machine fills with water the air in this pipe is "pushed" by the incoming water allowing the pressure switch to determine the volume of water in the machine.

When faulty the machine will generally overfill although blockages in the pressure system will also cause this fault to be evident.

These switches are known as a pressure switch, pressure sensor, analogic pressure switch and pressostat.

The correct one for your specific machine must be fitted or the water fill levels will not be correct. Please ensure that you order the correct pressure switch for your model.

This part is a genuine spare part made by the original manufacturer.

Always unplug your appliance before beginning work and replacing any parts.

Suitable for a range of AEG, Electrolux, Tricity Bendix, White Westinghouse and Zanussi Washing Machines.
