About the Temperature Switch

The temperature selector switch allows power to be sent to the water inlet valve to release hot or cold water. If the temperature selector switch is faulty, the valve may only allow only one temperature of water to fill the tub. You can use a multimeter to test the switch for electrical continuity. If the switch tests negative for continuity, the part will need to be replaced.
