STEAM GENERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING

DLEX8388WM
The Steam Generator for the dryer is made
up of 7 major components. They are the
1100 watt heater @ 120 V
sensor, the high water sensor, the
temperature sensing thermistor, the water
tank, the water reservoir, and a 9 V
pump.
The water level sensors, the thermistor,
along with the control board determine IF
the steam generator heater will be activated.
See the wiring diagram for the water level
sensors and steam generator heater.
The picture above shows 3 connectors. The
left most connector with black and gray leads
is the temperature sensing thermistor.
The center connector with a black and
orange wire is the low water sensor. The
front connector with a single brown wire is
the high water sensor.
From the wiring diagram you will see that the
black wire is the GND reference. The orange
wire is the low water sensor lead. The brown
wire is the high water sensor terminal.
