Washing Machine pressure switch

removing and checking a pressure switch. Do not try to adjust a pressure switch as they are increasingly being used to monitor fault conditions.

Thanks for the video. Because of the video, I was able to find my washer’s pressure hose. When I found it, it came undone after being moved into my new place. I reconnected it and now my washer is working again. Thanks. 😀

Thanks! I have Whirlpool AWE2316 top loader and I have been experiencing problem with pressure switch according to the self diagnostics lights. I managed to reset this fault code for now (Select drain program and press 4x Reset button within 5 sec) but now I know what to do when this wont help anymore :)

The 'tube' you are refering to is the tube which leads from the pressure vessel to the pressure switch diaphragm. You may find that this tube is blocked or it maybe a blockage in the pressure vessel. I would replace the tube if its blocked and clean out the pressure vessel. If this doesnt work I would then replace the pressure switch. The pressure switch tube doesnt go to the pump. When you complete the repair you might be in an area where you should use something lke Calgon water softener tabs.

great video - where does the tube lead to in the machine? i have a sign on my hotpoint that tells me there is a switch issue. the fiter is clear and its pumping out - i did have a blockage so and the machine still doesnt complete its cycle. i assume there is a block in that tube. how would i clear it and where doest it go it you blow down it - to the pump?

Great video mate. What is in the pressure tube that presses on the pressure switch's diagphragm? Water or air? Also, I have a faulty Electrolux EWF1090 front loader. After running the machine's self test I get an error code E35 which I'm pretty sure refers to a faulty pressure switch. Unfortunately when I consulted a parts manual, the machine has 2 pressure switches. One switch is similar to the pressure switch in your video but there is also one next to it which is described in the parts list as an anlogic pressure switch. Any idea what the anlogic pressure switch is for?

Thanks so much for your video. I have a Beko WMD 67105 washing machine that doesn't fill up with water and stops filling after 1 second. The spin cycle however works ok. I already checked the water inlet valve and it's Ok. Could the problem be what this video is about and if not what else could it be (it's not a kinked cord or blocked filter). ? Thanks again!
