Switch Removal And Replacement - Maytag LAT2300 Service Manual

The console is secured to the top cover
by seven locking feet which engage
through slots in the top cover.
3. Locate a small slot in the front of the
console underneath the endcap.
4. Place a small flat blade screwdriver
horizontally into the slot. Carefully
apply an inward pressure with the
screwdriver to disengage a retaining
tab located underneath the endcap of
the console.
5. While carefully applying inward pres-
sure through the slot, grasp the
endcap and slide the end of the
console forward 3/8". This will disen-
gage the hook feet under the console
which engage through slots in the top
cover. Repeat this procedure to the
other end of the console.
6. After laying a dropcloth across the top
cover of the washer, carefully lift and
roll the console forward onto the top
cover. You now have access to the
console components and wiring.
7. To Reinstall: Roll the console back
into an upright position, engaging the
locking feet into the slots in the top
cover. Slide the console rearward till
you hear a "click". This ensures the
locking tabs have engaged. Replace
the two screws to attach console to
top cover. Replace the three screws
to attach console back to console.
SWITCH REMOVAL & REPLACEMENT:
Switches are retained in the console by
means of locking tabs on the switch bod-
ies which engage with retaining features
on the console. Switches may be
mounted either horizontally or vertically in
the console. Please note orientation of the
switches prior to removal and replace-
ment. Removal of rotating knobs will be
necessary prior to switch removal. Knobs
are removed by pulling the knob from the
Ground Timer
