  • Inability to switch between wash steps or advance through the cycle
  • Erratic or inconsistent temperature readings
  • Failure alarms or error codes displayed
  • Improper or incomplete washing even on high heat settings

Will Schaefer for Model Number WFW8400TW02

Hello, I have looked everywhere for the part I need but cannot find. The water temperature sensor code appeared on my washing machine. I opened the back and the wire connecting to the wire harness had severed. I attempted to strip the insulation cover of the wire and insert the wire back into the harness but the harness seems to be crimped and does not allow me to put the wire back into the harness. Every part supply I call and every website, including yours, does not offer the wire harness ONLY. Can you help me? Thanks!

Answer

Will, With the wiring harness being damaged then you will need to have the wire harness part number W10184856.

Answer

Will, If you cannot repair the temperature sensor wire, you'll need to order the main wire harness W10184856 / WPW10184856 . The sensor wire harness isn't available as a separate component. In some cases, some servicers have removed the wire terminals, and soldered the wire directly to the terminals on the sensor. Just be very careful, you coukld damage the sensor if you overheat it. .
