Andrew June 13, 2019 for Model Number EXPW10467289 Washer Temperature Sensor Hello, I was disconnecting the connector to the temp sensor and with no effort at all, the wires disconnected from the connector that you use to plug in the temp sensor. Is there any way to put the wires back into the white connector? Or will I have to replace the whole wiring for the temp connector? Does this make any sense? The wires that connect to the connector were pulled out. Can I splice a new connector to the wires? Someone help me please !
1 Answer Andrew, it is possible to put the wires back in place if the retaining clips have not broken off of the wire terminals. If the retaining clips that hold the wires into the connector are intact, they can be opened to cause them to grip onto the connector end and secure them back in place. If there has been any damage or missing retainer clips, then the recommended procedure would be to replace the wiring. Read More...

I could have bought a new washer
1 Answer Sue, Check the wiring between the temp sensor and the control board and make sure all wiring is connected properly. If this checks ok then the temp sensor would be the most likely cause. Read More...
Eric P. October 13, 2017 for Model Number WFW86HEBC1 The water temperature sensor code appeared on my washing machine. I opened the back and the wire connecting to the wire harness had severed and I attempted to strip the harness and insert the wire back in but the harness seems to be crimped and does not allow me to put the wire back into the harness. Thanks
1 Answer Hello Eric, I'm sorry but if you cannot replace the connectors for the sensor with two 1/4 inch spade connectors to reconnect them, you will have to purchase the complete lower wiring harness for the unit. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Rich April 10, 2017 for Model Number WFW8400TW00 My Whirlpool sport duet throws an F24 code about half the time when I wash in any cycle except quick wash, I measured the ohms at room temp(70F) and got 15.7 k omhs I didn't think at the time to check the heater resistance anythoughts don't want to waste my money replaced parts that aren't needed.
1 Answer Hello Rich. If the water temperature sensor (NTC) value is out of range(23°F to 217°F [-5°C to 103°C]) during the water-heating stepof the WASH cycle. At room temp, you were reading very high on the sensor. It needs to be replaced. Read More...
1 Answer Mike, If the sensor checks ok then you would want to check the wiring between the sensor and the board. If this checks ok then the issue will be a faulty main control board. Read More...
Will Schaefer February 27, 2017 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!
2 Answers Will, With the wiring harness being damaged then you will need to have the wire harness part number W10184856. Read More...

2 Answers 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. .

1 Answer Hello John. You may have a wiring issue or the connector for the sensor is bad. Read More...
Chris October 29, 2016 for Model Number GHW9150PW1 Hi, the washer does not stop putting water into the washer for long (it pauses occasionally. I looked for a water level sensor, and two sensors are mentioned, but I can only find one. My thinking is the washer is attempting to stabilize the temperature by adding water, but am unsure. Temperature sensor shows an open line from my meter, but the washer periodically sends 4.5 volts DC down the line from what I can tell. Any hints would be appreciated. Thanks!
1 Answer Chris, If water is continuing to come into the unit while the unit is running after it is full then the issue would be more likely that the water valve is not fully closing and may need a new valve. The other issue could be a faulty control board. the unit should only have water come in at the beginning of the cycle and at the rinse cycle. Read More...
Ron April 30, 2016 for Model Number MFW9800TQ0 Getting code F-05. Sensor shows 10k at room temperature. What should heating element resistance be? How do you test the heating element?
