Details

It allows the user to choose between temperature and drying options by routing electrical power to the correct heating circuit. A failed selector switch can cause the dryer to remain on one setting, skip cycles, or not heat properly. Replacing the switch restores full temperature and cycle selection control for reliable drying performance.
