Function & Importance of the Water Level Switch
The water level switch (also called a pressure switch) monitors the air pressure inside the washer’s tub to determine how much water is present. Based on this reading, it signals the control board to:
-
Start and stop water filling
-
Maintain correct water levels for different wash cycles
-
Prevent overfilling or underfilling
-
Ensure proper cycle progression (wash → rinse → spin)
A properly functioning switch is essential for accurate wash performance and appliance safety.
What Happens When It Fails
When the 6601ER1006F switch begins to fail or gives inaccurate readings, the washer may misinterpret water levels, leading to performance issues such as:
-
Washer not filling or underfilling
-
Overfilling or water spilling into the drum
-
Washer stopping mid-cycle
-
Long or stuck wash cycles
-
Drain/spin cycle not starting properly
-
Water level or pressure-related error codes (commonly LG PE-type issues)
These symptoms typically indicate the washer cannot correctly “sense” water levels, making this component a primary suspect in such failures.
Common Symptoms of a Faulty Water Level Switch
If your LG washer shows any of the following, replacement of the 6601ER1006F may resolve the issue:
-
Washer starts but does not fill with water
-
Drum overfills or fills continuously
-
Cycle does not advance past wash stage
-
Washer drains unexpectedly or behaves erratically
-
Inconsistent water levels across loads
-
Washer stops mid-cycle without completing wash
In many cases, replacing the pressure switch restores normal operation when inlet valves and hoses are confirmed to be working.
