Replacing the Main Power Switch

This is a covered rocker switch, which in the ON position, sends power to all the controls and filter motor.

To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the power switch to OFF and disconnect power.

  1. Remove right side panel.

  2. Label and remove wires from the switch.

  3. From the inside of the control area, squeeze in on the tabs on the back of the switch and push the switch out the front of the control area.

  4. Check across the two sets of terminals of the switch for continuity. With the switch in the ON position, the circuit should be closed. With the switch in the OFF position, the circuit should be open.

  5. If the switch is found to be defective, replace it by connecting the wires to it (as labeled) and push new switch into place.
