Sensor Rods
The sensor rods consist of two sensors attached
to a plastic housing on the inside of the drum
support.
The sensors are connected to the main control
board. The sensors are spaced approximately
1/2-inch apart, creating an open circuit to the
control.
• When wet clothes tumble across the two
sensors, the clothes create a very low
resistance between the sensors.
• As the clothes become dry, their resistance
value increases.
• Operation of the touch sensors can be
checked by using the service mode test (see
Service Mode Test in the Diagnostics and
Service Information
section of this service
guide).
• Proper leveling of the dryer is vital for
accurate sensor drying. If the front of the
dryer is raised too high, clothes will tumble
toward the rear of the drum, preventing
contact with the sensors. This could produce
a false dryness reading.
Sensor Rod Removal
1. Remove the front panel to access the sensor
rods and harness (see Front Panel Removal
under
Front Panel
in the
Dryer Components
section of this service guide).
2. Disconnect the harness connectors from
sensor rods. A flat-blade screw-driver works
well.
3. Remove the sensor rods from housing by
using a flat-blade screw-driver to push the rod
terminal to the inside of the drum.
4. Remove the sensor rod from the dryer.
