Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Washer overfills or continues filling longer than expected.
• Washer does not fill properly or stops filling at an incorrect level.
• Washer may stop during a cycle or display a water-level sensor fault such as F3E1 on applicable models.

Check Before Replacing

• Run a small-load or service diagnostic test and observe whether the inlet valves stop filling when the expected water level is reached.
• Disconnect power before access. Visually inspect the pressure hose and air-trap connections for disconnection, kinks, pinching, leaks, water, suds, or debris.
• Check that the pressure-switch harness connector and related control-board connector are fully seated.
• Do not condemn the switch until the hose, air trap, wiring, inlet valve, and control are also considered; the same fill symptom can have multiple causes.
