Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Unplug the washer before removing the top or rear panels.
Step-by-step checks:
- Inspect hose and dome: Remove the top panel. Follow the pressure hose from the switch to the tub. Look for splits, pinholes, or loose connections. Inspect the tub air dome for cracks.
- Leak test: Detach the hose from the switch and submerge it in water while blowing air through it; look for bubbles indicating leaks.
- Switch test: Use a multimeter to verify that the switch changes state when pressure is applied via the hose.
- Harness check: Confirm continuity from the switch connector to the main control board.
When to replace: Replace the pressure switch if it does not respond correctly to pressure. Replace the hose if any leaks are found. A cracked air dome may require replacing the outer tub or installing a repair kit if available.
