Dean January 02, 2013 for Model Number MEDE200XW1 Any chance you know if the black wire from the wire harness plugs in on top and if the white one goes on the bottom??
1 Answer Hello Dean, This is a one way sensor and goes from moist to moist return. It should not matter which side you would hook to which. Read More...
Jake September 08, 2012 for Model Number Whirlpool cabrio electric dryer DRyer does not turn activate, powers up but when you hit start it just blinks sensing, put in diag mode and blinks F25; thinking i need to replace the mositure sensing strips or the harrness connection part 3406653.

John September 01, 2012 for Model Number ggw9250pw1 Gas dryer starts to heat up and then shuts off, dryer keeps running.
1 Answer Hello John! You will need to test and replace the coils 279834, if defective. Thanks! Read More...
Lorenzo T August 23, 2012 for Model Number 11073052100 Hi I have a Question About My Dryer in the digital panel say FP what is that
1 Answer Lorenzo, It's most likly a "P F" code. This would indicate a power failure, or a low voltage situation. You may want to check and make sure the power cord connections at the terminal block are good and tight, and that the outlet maintains 240 VAC when the dryer is running. We'll send you some additional information that should help. Thanks Read More...
Roy August 22, 2012 for Model Number GEW9250PWO Could you tell me if it is possible for the door switch to be bad if the light comes on when the door is open. Thank You.
1 Answer Hello Roy! Yes, the light can still activate even with a bad door switch WP8283288. Thanks! Read More...
Mark August 07, 2012 for Model Number ggw9250pto I was cleaning the dryer vent and disconted the sensor wire harness.
1 Answer Hello Mark. Hook the terminals to the spades by the air duct assembly. Then connect the connector to the wiring harness on the unit. Read More...
Troy July 25, 2012 for Model Number gew9200lw0 I have the moisture sensor wire harness and wish to know if it matters which wire connects to each moisture sensor?
1 Answer Hello Troy. This is a closed circuit and the wires can go on either sensor bar WP3387223. Read More...
Amanda June 21, 2012 for Model Number wed6200sw1 My dryer starts. It doesn't heat the clothes or make any noise and its stuck on sensing but the numbers count down. what could be wrong ?
1 Answer Hi Amanda. Moisture sensor test: Open the door and locate two metal strips on the inside of the dryer (on the lint filter intake). Bridge these strips with a wet cloth or a finger. If a continuous beep is heard and an alphanumeric number is displayed on the console then the sensor is OK. If not,or if a continuous beep tone is heard before bridging the moisture strips, go top step #5. It will be advantageous to find the supplied tech sheet inside the cabinet to aid you in the diagnosis. It allows you to put the unit in a diagnostic mode which brings up fault codes and tells you which circuit needs assistance.Make sure the vent is entirely clear and not restricted. Make sure the outside vent cap / hood is opening and closing properly 4-5x /yr. so lint and moisture does not back up and create a restriction causing these issues. The sensor wiring harness is part # WP3406653. Thank You. Read More...
Rob April 08, 2012 for Model Number GEW9868KQ2 Dryer will not turn on. Passes Diagnostic test but still gets power failure code. All I hear is a click when the start button is pushed. Timer counts down, unit shows it's sensing but nothing else. Dryer motor does not power up or hum. Door switch passed it's test, Fuse passed it's test, Termistor seemed to be close of it's ranges. When I tested the Moisture sensor it appears to have failed and gave me the code 7E or E7 on that test. Will this cause these problems or does it just make the thing run forever?
1 Answer Hi Rob. The therrmister is part # WP8577274. It will read 10,000 ohms good. If not within 5% then replace it. E-1 and E-2 is a thermistor open or shorted code. Thank You. Read More...
Bmxdad March 25, 2012 for Model Number Kenmore HE3 110.94832201 All settings always thinks the clothes are wet. I have cleaned the electrodes for mositure sensing. I get 3.7v on each lead from the sensors (after the caps) Yellow/red stripe and black/yellow stripe referenced to ground. I applied a wet towel to the sensors and get 1.5v on each lead. I'm not able to get the spec sheet because of current dryer location. Do I need to replace the harness that connects the sensor strips or could it be a main board failure? There are no other issues at this time. So again the problem: Start the machine in auto detect mode and it just continues to run. Cloths are hot, machine cycles correctly, clock stops sometime after 40+ mins and machine says cloths are wet. Even with empty drum. Thanks in advance.
1 Answer Hello, I would first check the exhaust duct. Since the dryer drum rides on felt seals, if the exhaust is crimped or otherwise restricted, the exhaust will blow past the drum seals putting the heat, lint, and moisture back into the cabinet where it is recirculated back through the clothes. (The vents on the units' back is the air inlet so when the air blows into the cabinet it is a recirculation of the same moisture which was just removed form the clothing).As you can see, this will cause a very long dry cycle and the moisture sensor will sense the same moisture again. Also try running the unit disconnected from the duct. There is a definate problem if it still doesn't advance. If none of this pans out, the main board WP8546219 has probably got a problem. (The tech. sheet should be behind the bottom front panel in a plastic bag). Read More...
