Water level sensors - says to add water but it is full

1 comments:

The Magic Chef MCIM30SST water level sensor may indicate to add water even when the tank is full due to the following reasons:

1. Sensor Malfunction – The water level sensor may be faulty or obstructed, causing it to incorrectly detect the water level.
2. Improper Positioning – If the sensor or internal components are not positioned correctly, the machine may not register the actual water level.
3. Dirt or Deposits – Dirt, mineral deposits, or air bubbles in the water reservoir can interfere with sensor readings.
4. Electrical Issues – A wiring problem or loose connection might cause incorrect signals from the sensor.

To resolve this, ensure the sensor is clean, properly positioned, and free of obstructions. If the issue persists, a reset or inspection of internal wiring may be needed.
