Clean the sensors with windex or like cleaner. Farbic soften can build up on the sensors and cause you trouble, Also, the time displayed is an estimate not actual drying time.
The moisture sensor is located in front grill area inside the dryer. If you look inside the drum where the filter screen mesh is, you will find 2 curved metal bars. Those are your moisture sensors. Hope this helps.
probably ur sensor is dead or there is dirt and moisture accumulation over ur sensor.... it is a mechanical cover and the dirt-moisture ghlue is preventing it from opening and stimulating the sensor. take it to prf repairer and get the dirt removed.
your vcr is having condensation symptom.you can try 1,let it on for 2
hour, 2, you can open the upper body then you can use hairdryer the
mekanik near where you push the cass, the sensor near the left reel.
get some windex and clean the sensor strip located behind the filter ousing similar to this picture. Their might be something on it that is interfering with its moisture sensing ability. Check out my youtube channel about section for a link to a free dervice manual for you model. Thanks Dan Webster
To check the moisture sensors. Make sure the dyer is plugged in and all controls are set to off. Next to get into the diagnostic mode press more time, less time, more time, less time, all within 5 seconds. Now all indecator lights on the console are lit up with 88 in the " time remaining" display, if the test mode has been entered. Now this how to check the moisture sensors. Open the dryer door. You may hear a beep sound and the software revision number will be displayed on the console. If this happens there is a short in the moisture sensor system and the moisture sensors need to be checked and probably replaced. If this doesn`t happen,locate the moisture sensors on the face of the lintscreen housing and lay a wet cloth or towell across them. You should hear a beep and the software number will be diplayed on the console. If this happens then the moisture sensors have past the test and your problem is even deaper into the electronics and may reqiure a technician to trace this problem down.I hope this has helped you.
It could be the sensor. However, check the exhaust vent for restrictions first.
you can test the moisture sensor
Damp Dry Test
1. Set the following
Timer- DAMP DRY
Fabric Care/Temperature switch- COTTON HIGH
Wrinkle Guard switch- OFF
Signal switch- LOUD
Door- must be closed
2. Press the PUSH TO START switch. After approximately 16 seconds, the Timer will start to advance to the OFF position, and the ?End of Cycle? signal will sound. If one or more of these functions do not occur, proceed to the Factory Test.
Factory Test
The Factory Test allows factory/service personnel to test and verify all inputs to the Even Heat control. The basic operation of this test is to notify the operator with an audible beep every time the status of an input to the control changes state.
Activating the Test Mode
1. Set the following configuration:
Door- must be open
Fabric Care/Temperature switch- AIR FLUFF
Signal switch- LOUD
Timer- TIMED DRY OR AUTO MOISTURE SESING PLUS selection
2. Turn the Wrinkle Guard switch from OFF to ON three times within a five second period. A single beep will sound to indicate that the factory test mode is activated.
NOTE: If any of these initial conditions are not satisfied, the control will not enter the test mode.
Test Mode Functionality
When the control is in the Factory Test mode, every input change of state will result in a beep (with the exception of the Signal switch). This includes:
Door switch
Moisture Sensor (short/open Sensor will result in a beep) NOTE: A moistened finger or damp cloth may also be used.
Fabric Care/ Temperature switch
Wrinkle Guard switch
Push to Start (PTS) switch (with the door switch closed)
Timer (any cam input change will result in a beep) NOTE: Timer will advance during test.
If any of the inputs do not result in a beep, proceed to the following component tests
If the dryer shuts off too soon when set to the AUTO MOISTURE SENSING PLUS cycle, check the following:
-HARNESS/CONNECTION
-MOISTURE SENSOR
-THERMISTOR
-EVEN HEAT CONTROL
Procedure:
1. Test the Moisture Sensor by following the procedure outlined in ?Factory Test?, beginning on page 3. If the Moisture sensor fails the ?Factory Test? (does not produce a beep sound), check the Moisture Sensor.
a. If there is continuity to Ground for Yellow/Red (Y/R) wire with no load, look for a short in the Sensor or Y/R wire. Verify harness connections both at the Sensor and the Even Heat control.
b. If the Sensor and Y/R wire are good, replace the Even Heat control.
2. If Factory Test passed, verify thermistor by performing test procedures outlined in ?Thermistor Test?
3. If problem persists after replacing Moisture Sensor and thermistor
