Door Switch kicking breaker

November 23rd, 2009

Model Number: DUB700XB-1 Brand: Whirlpool Age: More than 10 years

——————————————————————————–

Door switch is kicking breaker everytime the door closes and the latch clicks.
Could it be only the door latch switch? Looks like it depresses two switches at the same time. Has two wires going to each switch. Four wires total. Or do I have a wire grounded somewhere else? I haven’t checked the power supply underneath the unit.

When it comes to the breaker tripping there can be a short just about anywhere. However I do know the manufacturer has made a change on that door switch requiring you to change the harness.
