Toggle = back and forth, or on and off.

A toggle switch toggles (turns) a light or other device on or off.

Good example is a light switch (the wall kind)-- a toggle switch must also be of the "throw the stick back and forth" kind. Which a light switch basically is.

Synonyms for toggle: adjuster, dial, knob, on/off, power switch, switch, tuner, push button

One of the main advantages of a push button over a toggle switch is there is less room for accidental engagements. A toggle switch can easily be turned on or off by accident and a push button has to be intentionally touched to turn it on or off.

0 = off

1 = on

Yes! Find the wires going to the washer switch and just use a toggle switch in it's place. If you can't locate the wires, you can just run power straight to the motor from the toggle switch. I recommend you use a spring loaded on/off toggle switch, to make sure you don't accidentally leave it in the on position.
