If it is free the go to the bottom and check the switch with a multi-meter for continuity. NC should be closed and NO should be open. If it reads bad replace it. Here is the part number along with the parts diagram. Hope this helps. Part number: AP2909457 Tub assembly replacement parts for WHIRLPOOL DU948PWKQ1 \| AppliancePartsPros.com
