The washer door can be removed by removing
the upper left shield cover and hinge cover. Open

Access to the door switch requires that the water
seal boot be removed from the front of the washer.
(Fig. 4-11) Use a flat bladed screwdriver at the
location of the retainer spring and pull the retainer
forward and then off the perimeter of the boot.

Release these tabs in sequence from left to right
around the Touch Pad/LED Assembly until all of
the tabs are free and the Assembly can be lifted
from the console. (Fig. 4-9)
Ease the edge of the boot off of the lip of the
washer front near the door switch. (Fig . 4-12)
Remove enough of the boot to gain access to
the door switch behind the washer front panel.
The door switch is secured to the washer front
panel with three screws. Once these screws are
removed, the door switch will remain in place until
it is lifted slightly and pulled back from the washer
front panel.
