Test 4
Moisture Sensor
NOTE:
This test has two parts. The best test of the moisture sensing system is done in the diagnostic mode.
This FUNCTIONAL TEST will test the sensor bars, wiring harness and PCB operation. If the results of this test
are normal, the sensor system and PCB response are normal. The problem is somewhere else.
FUNCTIONAL TEST (Control)
1. Enter the diagnostic mode. (See DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE.)
2. With the door closed, press the START/PAUSE button once. The dryer will start tumbling without heat.
3. Open the door. The drum will stop tumbling and the “dE” error code will be displayed and the chime will sound several times (if turned
on).
4. With one hand, reach into the drum and place your fingers across the moisture sensor bars.
(CAUTION: The dryer drum will turn in this test. Your hand will be close to the rotating drum vanes. Keep your hand close to the filter
housing to avoid being hit by the moving vanes.)
5. Use your other hand to press the door switch. The dryer drum will start rotating automatically.
6. Observe the numerical display. Depending on conditions, the number displayed should be between 30 and 255. The numbers should
start decreasing as the control senses the moisture in your skin.
7. After you have observed the number decreasing, remove your fingers from the sensor bars. The numbers will continue to decrease for a
few seconds (minimum 30) and the begin to increase (maximum 255).
8. If this test fails, proceed with the MECHANICAL TEST below.
Disconnect the NA6 connector
from the main PCB. Measure
the resistance between the NA6-
⑥ (GN) pin and a chassis ground
screw. Is the resistance <1 Ω ?
Put a jumper between NA6-
②
(OR)
and NA6-
④
(BL) to create a circuit
connection for the continuity test in
the next step.
Measure the resistance between
the two moisture sensor bars on
the in the lint filter housing inside
the drum. Is the resistance <1 ?
Check all connections and wires
between the NA6 terminal at the
main PCB and the sensor bars.
Check the resistance is 0
Ω
•
Check all
wiring harness
connections wire
and Ground screws.
•
Replace the main
PCB.
•
Measure the resistance of all wires.
Resistance should be <1 ?
•
Check all sensor harness connectorsfor corrosion, loose/
bent pins, broken wires, etc.
•
Check all harness wires between the main PCB and the
sensor for cuts, or broken wires.
