6.6 Residual Moisture Sensor Circuit Test
T1576
Purpose
This serves as a test of the complete moisture sensing circuit between the
control module and the moisture sensor.
Procedure
1. Electrically connect one lifter bar and the drum body using clip leads or a wire
to simulate wet laundry and high conductivity.
2. Select "Rotary Iron" In the service mode. Press Start and wait for
approximately 30 seconds.
The "Cooling down" LED Illuminates
The "Cooling down" and "Drying" LEDs

sensing circuit).
5. Select "Fluff" position in the service mode, pres Start. Wait approximately 30
seconds.
The "Cooling down" LED Illuminates
The "Cooling down" and "Drying" LEDs

Circuit Is In proper working order
(Resistance of connection between
controls and sensors Is too high or
open circuited).
Check circuit outside of the Control
Electronic. (e.g.~ slip rings, wiring, lifter
bars, sensor contacts etc).
Replace the Control Electronic.
Proceed to step 6.
