Dryer Door Switch

This door switch assembly is used in many Whirlpool, Kenmore, and affiliated-brand dryers. It detects whether the dryer door is closed and prevents operation if the door is open, ensuring safe operation and preventing heat or motor run when the door is ajar.

Key Features

• Signals the control system to disable the dryer when the door is open and enables it once the door is closed.

• Designed as a leaf-switch type with two leads (SPDT) and integrated mounting tabs for secure installation.

• Constructed from durable plastic and metal contacts that are tolerant of heat, vibration, and repeated use.

• Engineered to match factory form, terminal spacing, and mounting footprint for direct replacement.

• Compatible with many Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, and related dryers—can replace earlier numbers like 3406104 and “Door Switch” listings.

• Always confirm compatibility with your dryer’s model number before ordering.
