134422700 - Genuine OEM Frigidaire Washer Water Level Switch

134422700 – Genuine OEM Frigidaire Washer Water Level Switch
The 134422700 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Washer Water Level Switch is a precision control component designed for Frigidaire washing machines. As a genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part, it is built to factory specifications to accurately sense and regulate water levels during wash cycles.
Available through Appliance Kingdom, a trusted Canadian supplier of OEM appliance parts, this component ships quickly across Canada and is commonly used to resolve water level detection and cycle control issues in Frigidaire washers.
Function & Importance of the Water Level Switch
The water level switch (also known as a pressure switch) is responsible for monitoring the air pressure inside the washer tub to determine how much water has filled the drum.
In a Frigidaire washer, it ensures:
-
Correct water fill level for each cycle setting
-
Proper cycle progression (wash → rinse → spin)
-
Protection against overfilling or underfilling
When operating correctly, it sends signals to the control system to stop water intake at the right time and move the cycle forward.
Using a genuine OEM switch is essential because even small calibration differences can lead to incorrect water levels, inefficient washing, or cycle failures.
Common Symptoms of a Faulty Water Level Switch
If this component begins to fail, your washer may show:
-
Washer overfilling or continuously filling with water
-
Washer not filling at all or filling inconsistently
-
Cycle not advancing past fill stage
-
Washer stops mid-cycle or behaves unpredictably
-
Incorrect water levels for load size
-
Long or abnormal wash cycles
These symptoms directly point to a water level sensing failure, and replacing the switch is often the correct solution.
Will Replacing This Part Fix the Issue?
If your Frigidaire washer is experiencing:
-
Incorrect water levels
-
Filling or draining issues caused by level detection
-
Cycle not progressing due to water sensing failure
Then replacing the 134422700 water level switch is a commonly effective repair.
However, proper diagnosis is important, as similar symptoms can sometimes be caused by hose blockages or control board issues.
