Diagnosing The Pressure Sensor
The pressure sensor can be tested by either using
Test 10 in the Service Mode, or by checking the
output DC voltage of the pressure sensor at the
control board.
To measure the output DC voltage, connect the
meter probes between pin 3 and pin 4.
Depending on how much water is in the basket
will determine what output DC voltage will be read
according to the chart.
Accidentally shorting between pin 2 and pin 3 will
cause the board to shut down, but it will not be
damaged.
Water Levels
Approximate Minimum Water Levels
• Impeller Models: 7 Gallons or 3 in. deep from
the bottom of the basket.
• Agitator Models: 9 Gallons or 3-3/4 in. deep
from the bottom of the basket.
Approximate Maximum Water Levels
• Impeller Models: 26 Gallons or 13-1/2 in. deep
from the bottom of the basket.
Press and hold the Deep Fill button for 3 seconds to
achieve.
Impeller Bulky setting water level is 25 gallons or
12-3/4 in. deep from the bottom of the basket.
Agitator Models: 26 Gallons or 12-1/2 in. depth
from the bottom of the basket set to super.
NOTE: These levels are measured starting from an
empty tub.
Pressure Sensor
The pressure sensors purpose is to sense the level of
water in the tub when a cycle is being run, or if the
washer is sitting idle.
The pressure sensor cannot be replaced by itself if it
malfunctions or is damaged. The complete control
board will need to be replaced, as the sensor is
mounted directly to it.

Option Selector Switches
The option selector switches allow the consumer to
select soil levels, water temperatures, rinse levels
and second rinses, and stain pretreat. The option
switches cannot be ordered separately if one
switch malfunctions. They all come together as one
assembly.
