WP22001308 – Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Level Switch

The WP22001308 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Level Switch is a precision-engineered control component designed for Whirlpool washing machines. This is a genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part, built to Whirlpool factory specifications to ensure accurate water level detection, reliable cycle control, and long-term performance.

Available through Appliance Kingdom, a trusted Canadian supplier based in Edmonton, this washer pressure switch ships quickly across Canada and is commonly used by homeowners, landlords, and professional appliance technicians to restore proper washer operation when water level sensing issues occur.

Function & Importance of the Water Level Switch

The water level switch (also known as a pressure switch) monitors the air pressure inside the washer’s tub to determine how much water is present during a cycle.

It plays a critical role in:

• Controlling water fill levels (low, medium, high loads)

• Preventing overfilling and potential flooding

• Signaling the control board when to start, pause, or stop filling

• Ensuring proper wash performance based on load size

Because Whirlpool washers rely on accurate pressure sensing, a correctly functioning OEM switch ensures safe operation, efficient water usage, and consistent cleaning results.

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Water Level Switch

A failing WP22001308 switch can cause noticeable washing machine problems, including:

• Washer overfilling or underfilling with water

• Machine stops or pauses during the fill cycle

• Washer continues filling without stopping

• Incorrect water level for load size

• Cycle stuck on “sensing” or early stages

• Poor wash performance due to incorrect water volume

If your Whirlpool washer is showing these symptoms, replacing this part is often a direct and effective fix for water level control issues.
