Function & Importance of the Water Level Switch
The water level switch (pressure switch) monitors the amount of water inside the washer tub. It uses air pressure from a connected hose to detect water levels and signals the control system when to stop filling.
Key functions include:
-
Preventing overfilling or underfilling
-
Ensuring proper water levels for each cycle
-
Maintaining wash performance and efficiency
A genuine OEM switch ensures accurate calibration, reliable signalling, and long-term durability under repeated wash cycles.

-
Washer not filling with water
-
Washer overfilling or continuously filling
-
Cycles stopping prematurely or running too long
-
Washer not advancing through cycles

Poor washing performance due to incorrect water levels
