The Sensor is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It detects the level of dirt and food particles in the wash water to help the dishwasher adjust the wash cycle accordingly, providing efficient and thorough cleaning results. It monitors the clarity of the water and determines when additional rinsing or detergent is needed.
Symptoms of a faulty sensor include:
- Inadequate cleaning performance
- Dishes remaining dirty or stained after a wash cycle
- Extended cycle times or the dishwasher not completing the cycle
A bad sensor can occur due to regular usage, buildup of residue or debris, or electronic malfunctions. If you notice issues such as poor cleaning results, dishes not being thoroughly washed, or the dishwasher not completing the cycle, it may be time to replace the sensor with this genuine OEM part.
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
