Customer Questions and Answers for Dryer Moisture Sensor Bar by Lg

4.89 (64)
By: Lg
Part Number: OEM13335393
Manufacturer Part Number: 6500EL3001A

The Dryer Moisture Sensor Bar is an OEM part for LG dryers. It plays a critical role in detecting the moisture level of clothes during the drying cycle, enabling the dryer to adjust the drying time automatically. This ensures efficient operation, preventing over-drying, which can damage fabrics and increase energy consumption.

Symptoms of a bad Dryer Moisture Sensor Bar include:

  • Clothes remaining damp after a complete drying cycle
  • The dryer continually running without stopping
  • Inconsistent drying results, with some clothes over-dried and others still wet

Causes of a bad moisture sensor bar can stem from a buildup of lint and fabric softener residue, which insulates the sensor and impairs its ability to accurately detect moisture. Additionally, wear and tear or damage from loading and unloading can affect its functionality.

Regular cleaning and maintenance are recommended to ensure that your LG dryer operates efficiently and preserves the life of your clothes.

Matthew G for Model Number DLEX5680W

I have the LG dryer DLEX5680W and recently the sensor dry settings auto-timer shortens the "time to dry" drastically to the point of not fully drying the clothes. I've ran the tests suggested and ran the smartphone diagnostic tool and no issues were detected. I ensured the vents were properly functioning as well and vacuumed out all that I could. My hunch is this may be a moisture sensor bar issue from what I've read online but I don't see any other comments/questions that have the same issue I'm facing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Answer

Matthew, The moisture sensor bars would possibly be the issue. If you use fabric sheets in the dryer you will want to try to clean the sensor bars with rubbing alcohol and see if that does not correct the issue. If this does not correct then check the wiring that goes between the sensor bars and the control board as the wiring may be faulty.
