XPARTCO 6602-001717 Dryer Drum Belt
The XPARTCO 6602-001717 is an aftermarket replacement drum belt for Samsung 24-inch compact dryers. The belt wraps all the way around the outside of the drum, passes under the idler pulley, and loops around the motor pulley — as the motor turns, the belt drags the drum around with it. There is no other mechanical connection between the motor and the drum, which is why a broken belt produces the classic symptom set: the dryer powers on, the console lights up, the motor hums and the blower runs, but the drum sits completely still. Reach in and spin the drum by hand and it will turn freely with no resistance at all.
Samsung specifies this belt as "BELT-TIMING GEAR; 5PH2010, RUBBER, T2.7" — a 5-rib PH-profile belt, 2010 mm long (approximately 79-1/8 inches), 2.7 mm thick, in reinforced rubber. This is a compact-platform belt used on 24" Samsung dryers, and it is physically shorter than the 6602-001655 (5PH2337) belt used on Samsung's full-size 27" dryers. Belts fail from age and heat: the rubber hardens, the ribs glaze over and start slipping, and eventually the belt cracks through or snaps outright. Frayed edges, a squealing or thumping noise that tracks drum rotation, or black rubber dust in the cabinet are all signs the belt is on its way out. Installs in 45–90 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 6602-001717 Dryer Drum Belt fixes Samsung 24" compact dryers where the motor runs but the drum won't turn, the drum spins freely by hand, or the dryer squeals, thumps, or rumbles during operation. 5 ribs, PH profile, 2010 mm (~79-1/8") long, 2.7 mm thick, reinforced rubber. Also marked 5PH2010. Fits DV22K6800EW and DVE22N6850 compact platforms. Not the same belt as the full-size 6602-001655 / 5PH2337 — that one is over a foot longer.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dryer runs and hums but the drum does not turn — the classic broken belt symptom
Drum spins freely by hand with no resistance when the door is open
Loud squealing or screeching that starts as soon as the cycle begins
Rhythmic thumping or slapping noise timed to drum rotation — cracked or split belt
Grinding or rumbling from inside the cabinet as a frayed belt drags
Drum turns slowly, intermittently, or stalls under a heavy wet load — glazed belt slipping
Clothes not drying because the drum isn't tumbling to expose them to airflow
Black rubber dust or belt fragments found in the bottom of the cabinet
Visible cracking, fraying, glazing, or stretching on the old belt
Cross Reference Information
Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item.
Replaces Part Numbers
This dryer drum belt directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers:
6602-001717, 6602001717, 5PH2010, SAM6602-001717, AP5623743, EAP4133826, ASM30222, PD00060820, PS4133826.
Samsung has not superseded this belt with a newer number, so the cross-reference list is intentionally short. 5PH2010 is the belt's size designation rather than a separate part number, and it is often stamped on the belt itself — if your old belt is marked 5PH2010, this is the correct replacement. If your part number is not listed above, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility.
Heads up on bad cross-reference data: A number of online listings for 6602-001717 have incorrect cross-references copied onto them from a completely unrelated Frigidaire belt — numbers such as 134163400, AP3865318, 148270, PS1148434, and 5303283471, along with a long list of Frigidaire GLER, FDE, FER, and GLGQ model numbers. Those numbers do not apply to this Samsung belt and those Frigidaire dryers do not use it. If you arrived here from a listing showing those numbers, verify against your Samsung model number before ordering.
Compatibility
This drum belt is compatible with select Samsung 24-inch compact dryers, including:
Samsung DV22K6800EW/A1 and DV22K6800EW/AC compact electric dryers
Samsung DV22K6800EW series (all sub-variants)
Samsung DVE22N6850X and DVE22N6850 series compact electric dryers
Samsung DV22N6800 series compact dryers
Select Samsung-built compact dryers sold under other retail labels
These are Samsung's 24" ventless and compact-footprint dryers, commonly installed in apartments, condos, closets, and stacked laundry towers where a full-size 27" dryer will not fit.
Note — compact platform only: The 6602-001717 is a 2010 mm belt for 24" compact Samsung dryers. It is NOT interchangeable with the 6602-001655 (5PH2337) belt used on Samsung's full-size 27" dryers such as the DV42H, DV45H, DV40J, DV48H, DV48J, and DV50K series — that belt is 2337 mm, roughly 13 inches longer. A full-size belt will hang loose on a compact drum and slip immediately; a compact belt will not stretch far enough to reach around a full-size drum. Measure your old belt or check your model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Note Belt Orientation And Idler Routing Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves — the sheet metal edges inside the cabinet are sharp. Before you start, take a photograph of how the old belt routes around the drum, under the idler pulley, and around the motor pulley. If the belt is already broken and you cannot see the original routing, note that the ribbed side of the belt faces toward the drum on this platform, with the smooth back side riding against the idler pulley. Access on Samsung compact dryers is typically through the front: remove the top panel, then the control panel and front panel, which lets you lift the drum out or tilt it forward far enough to work. Vacuum out accumulated lint while the cabinet is open — lint buildup around the motor and idler is what cooks belts prematurely. With the drum accessible, slip the new belt around the drum roughly one-third of the way back from the front lip, ribbed side against the drum surface, and seat it in the wear track left by the old belt. Reach underneath, route the belt under the idler pulley, then loop it around the small motor pulley. A useful trick: tape the belt loosely in position on the drum with a strip of masking tape before you reach underneath, so it doesn't slide off while you're working the idler. Once seated, rotate the drum several full turns by hand and confirm the belt tracks straight and stays centered in its groove without walking toward the edge. While you are in there, spin the idler pulley and the drum rollers by hand — if either is noisy, gritty, or wobbly, replace them now, because a seized idler or worn roller will destroy the new belt in short order. Reassemble, restore power, and run a short empty cycle listening for squeal or thump before putting a load in. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver or socket set, putty knife, masking tape, flashlight, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know for sure the belt is broken and not the motor?
Open the door with the dryer unplugged and try to spin the drum by hand. With an intact belt you will feel firm resistance — you're turning the motor and idler through the belt. If the drum spins freely and easily, coasting like a bicycle wheel, the belt is broken or has come off its pulleys. The other tell is sound: with a broken belt the motor hums and the blower whooshes normally, so you hear a dryer that sounds like it's running perfectly while the drum sits still. A failed motor, by contrast, usually buzzes and does nothing, or trips the breaker.
Which way do the ribs face on this belt?
On this Samsung compact platform the ribbed side faces toward the drum, so the ribs grip the drum surface and the smooth back of the belt rides against the idler pulley. This is worth stating plainly because belt orientation is not universal across brands — some Whirlpool-platform dryers run the grooves against the motor pulley instead. Photograph your old belt before removing it whenever possible; the wear track polished into the drum will also show you exactly where the belt is meant to sit.
Will the full-size Samsung belt work if I can't find this one?
No. The full-size Samsung belt is 6602-001655, marked 5PH2337 — it is 2337 mm long against this belt's 2010 mm, a difference of about 13 inches. On a compact drum that extra length leaves the belt slack, so the idler cannot take up the tension and the belt slips or walks straight off the pulley. Going the other direction, a compact belt simply will not reach around a 27" drum. The rib count and profile are the same, which is exactly why these two get mixed up — always confirm the length.
My dryer squeals but the drum still turns. Is it the belt or something else?
It could be either, and it's worth diagnosing before you order. A glazed or hardening belt squeals as it slips on the motor pulley, usually loudest at startup and under a heavy wet load. But a dry or failing idler pulley bearing produces a very similar squeal, and worn drum rollers add a low rumble. With the dryer open, spin the idler and each roller by hand: they should turn smoothly and silently. If they're gritty, noisy, or have side-to-side play, replace them along with the belt — the parts share the same teardown, so doing them together saves you from opening the cabinet twice.
Why did my belt break in the first place?
Most often heat and age — rubber hardens over years of thermal cycling until it cracks. But two things dramatically accelerate it. Restricted airflow from a lint-clogged vent makes the cabinet run far hotter than designed, cooking the belt. And a seized idler pulley or a flat-spotted drum roller forces the belt to drag against a stationary surface, which shreds it quickly. If your belt failed early, clean the vent ducting end to end and inspect the idler and rollers before assuming the new belt will simply last.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the dimensions (2010 mm length, 2.7 mm thickness), 5-rib PH profile, reinforced rubber construction, and drum-drive function of the original 6602-001717 belt used in compatible Samsung 24" compact dryers.

XPARTCO DC64-00828B Dryer Door Switch
The XPARTCO DC64-00828B is an aftermarket replacement dryer door switch (also called a door jamb switch) compatible with a wide range of Samsung and Kenmore Samsung-built electric and gas dryers — including the DV2, DV3, DV4, DV5, DVE, DVG, 592, 401, and 402 series. The door switch is a small safety component mounted near the dryer door frame that detects whether the door is closed. When the door closes, the switch is activated, signaling the control board that the dryer is safe to start or continue running. If the switch fails to detect the closed door, the dryer will not start, will stop mid-cycle, or in rare unsafe failure modes, may continue running with the door open.
This switch directly replaces DC64-00828A (the prior version), 2071595, AP4578931, EAP4210965, PS4210965, PS4210964, 2071594, and PD00028436. It is constructed from durable plastic and metal in white, with dimensions of approximately 1.73"L x 1.73"W x 0.47"H. Note: while this switch looks easy to remove, the front panel actually needs to come off to access it cleanly. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power and turn off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Although the door switch appears easy to access from the front, on most Samsung dryer models the front panel actually needs to be removed to install the new switch cleanly. Unscrew and lift off the front panel — be careful not to drop it during reinstallation. Locate the old door switch mounted near the door frame opening. Photograph the wire connections before disconnecting. Unplug the wire harness from the old switch, release the retaining tabs or remove the mounting screws holding the switch in place, and pull it free. Install the new DC64-00828B switch in the same position, reconnect the wire harness, and reinstall the front panel. Restore power, then close the dryer door and start a cycle to confirm the door is properly detected and the dryer runs normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do error codes dC, dF, dE, and d0 mean on Samsung dryers?
These door-related error codes on Samsung dryers all indicate the control board is not receiving the expected "door closed" signal from the door switch. dC and d0 commonly appear when the dryer cannot detect a closed door at the start of a cycle, while dF and dE appear when the door signal is lost during a cycle. The dryer's safety logic prevents operation under any of these conditions. Replacing a failed DC64-00828B door switch resolves these codes when the switch itself is the cause; if the codes persist after replacement, check the wiring harness between the switch and the control board for damage.
My dryer is running with the door open — what should I do?
A dryer that continues to run with the door open is a serious safety concern and should be addressed immediately. This usually indicates a failed door switch that is stuck in the "closed" position electrically, even though the door is physically open. Disconnect power to the dryer right away and avoid running it until the switch has been replaced. The DC64-00828B replacement restores normal safety behavior. Until the repair is complete, do not run the dryer.
What is the difference between DC64-00828B and DC64-00828A?
These are the same door switch across successive production revisions. DC64-00828A was the original part number and DC64-00828B is the current updated version. Both are fully interchangeable — if your dryer's parts diagram shows DC64-00828A, the DC64-00828B is the correct current replacement and is covered by this listing.
My dryer suddenly stops mid-cycle even though the door is closed — could this be the switch?
Yes — a door switch with intermittent contact failure is a common cause of unexplained mid-cycle shutdowns on Samsung dryers. The switch may be working correctly when first activated but losing its signal momentarily during operation due to vibration or worn internal contacts, causing the control board to interpret a momentary "door open" condition and stop the cycle. If this is happening repeatedly without any other identifiable cause, replacing the DC64-00828B door switch is the recommended fix.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured from durable plastic and metal to match the dimensions, switch contacts, and function of the original DC64-00828B dryer door switch.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power (and shut off gas for gas dryers) before beginning. Remove the lint screen and unscrew the screws inside the lint screen housing. Use a putty knife to release the top panel spring clips and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to access the drum. Release the drive belt from the idler pulley, lift the drum forward, and set it aside. The rear drum support rollers are mounted on shafts on the rear bulkhead — each roller is secured with a tri-ring clip and a retaining washer. Use needle-nose pliers to remove the old tri-ring clips, then slide the old rollers off the shafts. Install the new rollers, new retaining washers, and new tri-ring clips on the shafts. Reinstall the drum, re-route the belt around the motor and idler pulley, and reassemble the front and top panels. Restore power and run a test cycle to verify quiet, smooth drum operation. Tip: while the dryer is open, inspect and replace the drum belt (341241) and idler pulley (691366 or 279640) if worn. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" or 5/16" nut driver, putty knife, needle-nose pliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do the drum support rollers do?
The rear drum support rollers are cylindrical wheels mounted on fixed shafts at the back of the dryer cabinet. As the drum rotates, its rear outer rim rests on these rollers, which carry the drum's weight and allow it to spin smoothly and quietly. When the rubber wheels wear down or the bearing hubs corrode, the drum no longer rides smoothly on the rollers — causing thumping, rumbling, or squealing noises that get progressively worse. In severe cases, worn rollers allow the drum to sag and drag against the cabinet rear panel.
Why must I replace both rollers at the same time?
Both rear drum support rollers carry the same load and experience the same wear through every drying cycle. When one roller fails, the other has been under the same stress for the same number of cycles and is almost certainly near the end of its useful life. Replacing only the failed roller leaves one worn roller supporting the drum unevenly, which puts extra stress on the new roller and causes it to wear out much faster. Replace both rollers at the same time to ensure even drum support and get the full service life from the new parts.
Should I also replace the belt and idler pulley at the same time?
Yes — this is the ideal time. Since the dryer must be fully disassembled to access the rear drum rollers, replacing the drum belt (341241) and idler pulley (691366 or 279640) at the same time is strongly recommended. All three parts wear at similar rates, and a worn belt or idler pulley is often what caused the rollers to wear prematurely. Doing all three in one repair eliminates the most common drum drive failure points and saves you from repeating the teardown in the near future. The 4392065 maintenance kit includes all three parts together.
What causes dryer drum rollers to wear out?
Drum rollers wear naturally over time from the continuous load of supporting the rotating drum. The most common accelerating factors are operating the dryer with a worn or broken belt (which allows the drum to sag and puts extra weight on the rollers), running very large or heavy loads frequently, and allowing lint to accumulate around the roller shafts, which causes the bearings to run dry and wear faster. Regular dryer maintenance — including cleaning lint from around the drum and periodically checking the belt — helps extend roller life.

279570 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Door Catch Kit
The 279570 is a Genuine OEM Whirlpool dryer door catch and strike kit compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, Kenmore, Roper, Estate, Amana, Crosley, Inglis, KitchenAid, Maytag, and Admiral dryers. The door catch is the spring-clip mechanism on the dryer door that snaps over the door strike to hold the door firmly closed during operation, activating the door switch so the dryer can run. When the catch breaks, wears out, or loses tension, the door will not stay closed, the door switch will not be activated, and the dryer will either not start or will stop mid-cycle. The strike is the corresponding post or tab on the dryer cabinet that the catch engages.
This Genuine OEM kit includes three color-coded door catches of different tensions and two metal door strikes, plus one screw. Because the tension of the catch must match the original, Whirlpool includes three options in the kit — each is color-coded and numbered on the back. Refer to identify which catch is correct for your model. The kit directly replaces a very large list of older cross-reference numbers including 279570VP, 3493, 2003, 8208, 279280, 279337, 696144, 693717, AP3094183, PS334230, and dozens more. Installs in under 15 minutes with a Phillips screwdriver.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dryer Before Starting Disconnect power before beginning. using the wrong tension catch will result in incorrect door resistance. Open the dryer door and locate the old door catch on the inside of the door panel and the strike on the dryer cabinet opening. To remove the old catch: press the retaining tabs and pull the catch free from its slot, or unscrew the mounting screw. Install the correct new catch into the same position. To replace the strike: remove the old strike (typically held by a single screw) and install the new strike in the same position. Close the dryer door to confirm it latches firmly with a satisfying click. Restore power and run a short test cycle to confirm the door stays closed and the dryer operates normally. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver; needle-nose pliers may help with catch removal on some models.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the kit include three different catches?
Whirlpool used door catches with different spring tensions across its dryer lineup — a lighter catch on some models and a stiffer catch on others. To cover all compatible models in a single kit, Whirlpool includes three catches of different tensions, each color-coded and numbered on the back. It is important to use the correct one — using a catch with too little tension may allow the door to pop open, while a catch with too much tension may make the door difficult to open.
Do I need to replace both the catch and the strike, or just one?
It depends on which component has failed. The catch (the spring-clip on the door) is the more commonly replaced part — it wears out from repeated use faster than the strike. Inspect both: if the catch is cracked or has lost its spring tension, replace the catch. If the strike is bent, cracked, or missing, replace the strike. Since the kit includes both catches and strikes, you have everything needed for a complete repair. When in doubt, replacing both ensures the full latch system is renewed.
My dryer will not start even after replacing the door catch — what else could it be?
If the dryer still will not start after the catch is replaced, the door switch may also need to be tested. The door switch is the electrical component that the door catch activates when the door closes — if the switch itself is failed, replacing the catch alone will not restore function. Test the door switch (3406105 for most Whirlpool-family models) with a multimeter for continuity in both the open and closed positions. If the switch reads open in both positions or closed in both positions, it has failed and needs replacement.
How is the 279570 different from the W11429587 dryer door catch?
The 279570 is the door catch kit for older Whirlpool-family dryers — it includes multiple catches of different tensions and metal strikes because it covers a wide range of older models. The W11429587 is a single snap-in door catch for newer Whirlpool-family dryers (Cabrio and newer platform models). If your dryer is a newer model with a snap-in catch slot rather than a screw-mounted catch and strike, you likely need the W11429587. Verify your model number to confirm which part is correct.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM kit manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications. It is the exact same door catch and strike kit supplied by Whirlpool for compatible dryer service repairs — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting Unplug the washer from the power outlet before beginning any repair. The damper vent is located in the drain system — typically accessible from the front lower panel or by removing the washer's access panel. Locate the existing damper vent on the drain hose or drain port. Press the tabs or release clips to remove the old damper vent from its snap-in mounting position. Align the new WH16X29509 damper vent with the mounting port and press firmly until it snaps into place. Restore power and run a short drain or rinse cycle to verify the washer drains correctly and no error codes are displayed. Tools needed: None for the damper vent itself; a screwdriver may be needed to remove the access panel on some models.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the washer damper vent do?
The damper vent is a one-way valve on the washer's drain system. During the drain cycle, it opens automatically to equalize the air pressure inside the drain hose, which allows water to drain quickly and completely. When draining stops, the flap closes to create a seal that prevents residual wastewater and lint from flowing back up the drain hose and into the drum — which would re-soil clothes that have already been washed.
What error codes does a failed damper vent cause on GE washers?
A blocked, stuck, or failed WH16X29509 damper vent is a known cause of error codes 38, 39, 40, and 84 on compatible GE GFW510, GFW550, and GFW650 series front-load washers. These codes are typically triggered when the control board detects a drain pressure or flow issue. Replacing the damper vent resolves the issue in many cases when the drain pump and hose are otherwise clear.
How do I know if my damper vent has failed?
Common signs of a failed damper vent include slow or incomplete draining, one of the error codes listed above, dirty water or lint reappearing on clothes after a wash cycle, or a stuck flap that is visibly open or closed when it should not be. You can inspect the damper vent by removing the access panel and checking whether the flap moves freely — it should open easily when you apply gentle pressure and spring closed when released.
Is the WH16X29509 compatible with GE Profile and GE Café washers?
The WH16X29509 is confirmed compatible with select GFW and PFW series models from GE and GE Profile. GE Café washers use different model series — verify your specific model number before ordering. Contact our support team if you need help confirming compatibility for your Café or Profile model.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured from high-strength plastic to match the dimensions and performance of the original WH16X29509 damper vent.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Safety First — Unplug Dryer Before Starting Unplug the dryer from the power source (and shut off the gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair. Remove the lint screen and unscrew the Phillips screws inside the lint screen housing. Use a putty knife to release the top panel clips and lift the top panel. Remove the front panel to access the drum and drive components. Release the drive belt tension by pushing the idler arm, then slide the belt off the idler pulley. Remove the mounting screw securing the old idler arm assembly and lift it out. Install the new W10837240 idler assembly, secure with the mounting screw, then re-route the drive belt around the new pulley and motor pulley. Reassemble the front panel, top panel, and restore power before running a test cycle. Tip: While the dryer is open, inspect the drum belt (WPW10112954) and drum support rollers for wear and replace if needed. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife or flat pry tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the idler pulley do?
The idler pulley is a spring-tensioned wheel mounted on an arm and bracket inside the dryer. It presses against the drive belt to maintain the correct tension needed to keep the belt gripping the drum and motor pulley. Without proper tension, the belt slips, loses contact, or causes the drum to stop spinning. A worn or seized idler pulley is one of the most common causes of dryer squeaking and drum spin failure.
Does W10837240 replace W10547287 and W10547290?
Yes. The W10837240 is the updated part number that directly supersedes both the W10547287 and W10547290 idler pulley assemblies. If your dryer originally used either of those older part numbers, the W10837240 is the correct current replacement.
How do I know if my lint screen is inside the door?
Open the dryer door and look for a slot or housing just inside the door opening — typically at the top or bottom of the door opening — where you pull out the lint filter. If the filter pulls out from inside the door frame, the W10837240 is designed for your dryer style. If the lint screen pulls out from the top of the dryer cabinet, contact our support team with your model number to identify the correct idler pulley for your machine.
Should I replace the drive belt at the same time?
Yes — since the dryer is already disassembled to replace the idler pulley, it is highly recommended to also inspect and replace the drum belt (WPW10112954) at the same time. The belt and idler pulley wear together, and a worn belt on a new pulley — or vice versa — significantly shortens the life of the new part.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured from durable plastic and metal to match the dimensions and performance of the original W10837240 idler pulley assembly.

The XPARTCO W10820036 is an aftermarket replacement door switch used on select Whirlpool-built combination washer/dryer units. This switch is a safety interlock: it detects whether the door is fully closed and latched, and it signals the control board that it is safe to run the motor, heater, and water valves. On a combo unit, this single interlock typically governs both the wash and dry portions of the cycle, since both functions share the same drum and door. If the switch fails to detect a closed door — or fails electrically even when the door is closed properly — the control will refuse to start the cycle, or will stop mid-cycle if the switch drops out while running.
Typical failure modes for a part like this include a cracked or worn switch lever that no longer depresses fully when the door closes, internal contacts that have pitted or burned out from years of cycling, and a housing that has come loose from its mounting bracket so the plunger no longer lines up with the door strike. A functioning door switch should click firmly when the door closes and should show continuity across its terminals only when the lever is pressed.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W10820036 Washer/Dryer Door Switch is a door safety interlock switch for select Whirlpool-built combination washer/dryer units.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug The Unit Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access to the door switch on combo units is typically through the front or top control panel — photograph the wiring harness before disconnecting it so you can match it exactly on reassembly. Confirm the new switch's lever aligns with the door strike before securing the mounting screws, and test for a firm, positive click when the door closes before restoring power and running a cycle. If your unit's service manual is available, follow its specific access and mounting steps rather than relying solely on general guidance.
Frequently Asked Questions
My combo unit won't start. Is this definitely the door switch?
It's one of the most common causes when a unit refuses to start with the door visibly closed. Before replacing the switch, confirm the door is latching fully and that nothing (a stray sock, a bent strike bracket) is preventing it from closing all the way. If the door latches firmly but the unit still won't start, or a multimeter shows no continuity across the switch terminals when the lever is pressed, the switch itself is the likely culprit.
Does this switch control both the washer and dryer functions?
On combination washer/dryer units, yes — a single door and drum typically serve both functions, so one door switch acts as the safety interlock for both the wash and dry portions of the cycle.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the mounting, switching function, and door-interlock behavior of the original W10820036 switch used in compatible combination washer/dryer units.
