Key Features

  • Precision Momentary Contact: Engineered with a high-durability internal spring mechanism that provides the momentary electrical "pulse" required to engage the motor relay and initiate the drying cycle.
  • Silver-Alloy Terminals: Features two 1/4-inch male spade connectors coated in a corrosion-resistant alloy, ensuring a low-resistance connection and preventing the "pitting" that often leads to switch failure.
  • High-Impact Heat-Stabilized Housing: Manufactured from a premium polymer designed to withstand the vibration and ambient heat of the dryer console without warping or cracking.
  • Tactile Feedback Design: Provides a distinct, audible "click" upon activation, allowing for confirmed cycle starts and reducing the likelihood of partial contact that can arc and damage the switch.

Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

  • Primary Part: W10117655, WPW10117655.
  • Industry Standards: PS11748542, EAP11748542.
  • Legacy Cross-Reference: 1448106, AH1491565, EA1491565, PS1491565.

Compatibility & Fitment

This start switch is the standard ignition component for dozens of dryer series produced by Whirlpool. Key compatible brands include:

  • Whirlpool & Maytag: Fits hundreds of YWED, WED, and MED series models (e.g., YWED4815EW1, YWED4915EW1, MEDC215EW).
  • Kenmore (110 Series): Compatible with many 110-prefix models produced by Whirlpool (e.g., 110.60022010, 110.70022010).
  • Crosley, Amana, & Roper: Direct fit for dozens of CDE, NED, and RED series budget-friendly dryers.
  • Admiral & Inglis: Compatible with standard top-lint-filter dryers utilizing a mechanical push-to-start system.
  • Note: This is a 2-terminal switch. Verify your terminal count before ordering, as some models utilize a 3-terminal variant.

When to Replace

  • Dryer Won't Start: You turn the timer knob, the door is closed, and you push the button, but nothing happens.
  • Intermittent Starting: You have to push the button multiple times or hold it in a specific way to get the motor to catch.
  • No "Click" Sound: The button feels "mushy" or stays stuck in the "in" position, indicating the internal spring has snapped.
  • Burning Smell in Console: Localized overheating at the terminals can cause the plastic housing to melt, creating a distinct electrical odor.
  • Continuity Failure: The switch fails to show continuity on a multimeter when the button is actively pressed.

Installation Tips

  • Safety First: You MUST unplug the dryer. Working inside the console involves exposed 120V and 240V terminals.
  • Access the Switch: Remove the screws securing the back of the control console. The switch is usually held in place by two small tabs; press them inward to pop the switch out.
  • Terminal Transfer: Use needle-nose pliers to move the wires one at a time from the old switch to the new W10117655 to ensure they stay in the correct position.
  • Check the Knob: Ensure your plastic Start Knob isn't cracked. If the knob is stripped, it won't be able to apply enough pressure to the switch.
  • Tighten Connectors: If the wire terminals feel loose when you push them onto the new switch, use your pliers to gently squeeze the female connectors for a tighter grip.

Perfect!
Scent: White Peach, Size: 14oz
Everything you would want in a pet hygiene product. Pet hair type I used this on: low shed, dense cork screw (tight curl) hair/fur. Excellent lather, even application, clean and easy rinsing. The scent is lovely and gentle, perfect for my human senses and -more importantly- the animal minded fragrance notes are happily accepted by my pet’s delicate olfactory system. I start spa bath time by offering an open cap sniff of the products. This is one we both prefer. My pet hasn’t run from the room or attempted to flee the wash basin 🙂

A Gentle Clean That Leaves My Pups Smelling Incredible
Scent: White Peach, Size: 14oz
Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day 3-in-1 Dog Shampoo in White Peach is a breath of fresh air compared to the harsh, chemical-heavy formulas often found on pet store shelves. The 3-in-1 claim—cleansing, softening, and freshening—actually holds up; the formula lathers well enough to cut through dirt and grime but rinses out quickly without leaving any sticky residue. Because it is made with essential oils and plant-derived ingredients, it feels very gentle on the skin, which is a huge plus if your pets are prone to itching or dryness after bath time. The standout feature, however, is the scent. The White Peach aroma is light, fruity, and natural, avoiding that overpowering "wet dog covered in cheap perfume" smell that other brands tend to produce. It strikes a perfect balance: strong enough to neutralize odors but subtle enough that it doesn't seem to bother the dogs' sensitive noses. It makes the entire bathroom smell like a summer orchard rather than a grooming station. Most importantly, the lasting freshness is unbeatable. After using this, my dogs smell absolutely amazing—clean, sweet, and huggable—for days, not just hours. It completely eliminates that lingering "doggy odor" and leaves their coats feeling soft and fluffy. If you are looking for a shampoo that makes you actually want to bury your face in your dog's fur, this is the one to buy.

Works as advertised
Scent: White Peach, Size: 8oz
Exactly as described. My dog seems to enjoy the spraying and wiping process - no struggles. I am not fond of the aroma, even though I usually love anything peach. The smell lasts several days on the dog, so we're not smelling the "dog" smell as much.

Mrs Meyer's works well for stinky pets.
Scent: White Peach, Size: 14oz
This is the best shampoo I've tried to get rid of stinky dog odor and I've tried many! Another shampoos when you wash the dog the smell would return the next day. But with this one the smell lasts for days, ridding her body odor & leaving her coat soft fluffy and the peach smell is pleasant enough to cuddle.
