replace of out of balance switch F&P 5.5 Smartdrive 9 excellence ?

I want to replace the out of balance switch on my F&P 5.5 Smartdrive 9 excellence washing machine and need to know which switch it is

The out of balance switch is a microswitch situated under the main control box inside the panel. Disconnect the power from wall, open the panel & unplug all wires going in to the control box. The plugs on each group of wires are all different & will only fit back in the same way they came out so you can't mix them up. Once wires are removed, lift the control box out & you will see out of balance switch on right hand side. Gently pull the switch out of the holding plate being careful not to break the two plastic pins that hold it.
