The WPW10312527 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Sensor Probe—also commonly referred to as a water level pressure switch—is a critical component designed for Whirlpool washing machines and compatible brands. This genuine OEM part is engineered to precisely monitor and control water levels during wash cycles, ensuring optimal performance and safety.

Available from Appliance Kingdom, this part ships across Canada, providing a reliable solution for common washer issues such as incorrect water levels, cycle errors, or machines that won’t start.

Function & Importance of the Sensor Probe

The WPW10312527 sensor probe (pressure switch) detects the water level inside your washer tub using air pressure from a connected tube. Once the correct water level is reached, it signals the control board to stop filling and proceed with the wash cycle.

This function is essential because:

• Prevents overfilling or underfilling

• Ensures proper cycle timing and efficiency

• Protects internal components from water damage

• Maintains consistent wash performance

Using a Genuine OEM Whirlpool part ensures accurate sensing and communication with the control system—something aftermarket or incorrect parts may fail to deliver.

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Sensor Probe

If your washer is showing any of the following issues, this part is a likely cause:

• Washer won’t start or initiate cycles

• Cycles are too long or too short

• Washer overfills or underfills with water

• Incorrect water levels during wash or rinse cycles

• Washer stops mid-cycle or behaves erratically

Will replacing this part fix your issue?
If your washer is not filling correctly, overfilling, or failing to progress through cycles, replacing the sensor probe is often a direct and effective solution.
