Humidity Sensor (Microwave)
Genuine Whirlpool part
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: W10853313

This sensor monitors humidity inside the microwave cavity so sensor-cook and reheat features can automatically adjust time and power. Replacing a failing sensor restores accurate automatic cooking and helps prevent premature shutdowns or "Sensor" error messages.

Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You Dryer not heating   Jeffrey F. • Apex , NC • September 16, 2017

Our dryer seemed to be taking a long time to dry, often needing a couple cycles to complete the job. Then one day it stopped heating at all. After watching a couple videos and testing with a multimeter I figured out not only the thermristor had blown (can happen due to bad airflow) but also half the heating element was shot. I ordered both parts for overnight delivery and received them at noon the next day. Replacement was easy and the dryer is good again. Side note: After the repair was... Read more
