Description

This turbidity sensor measures how cloudy the dishwasher wash water is so the machine can adjust cycle length and cleaning intensity for better results. It replaces a failed or intermittent sensor to restore proper soil detection. What it does:

• Detects cloudiness/soil level in dishwasher wash water to inform cycle controls
• Helps the washer lengthen or shorten cycles based on detected soil levels
• Commonly replaced when the dishwasher runs unusually long, cleans poorly, or loses soil-sensing function
• Works as the electrical sensor module that sends signals to the control board

What's included:

• One turbidity sensor assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and water supply before accessing internal components
• Handle the sensor carefully; avoid touching the sensing surface and wiring pins
• Ensure connector is fully seated and any mounting grommets or clips are returned to their original position
