S EXAMPLE WR IS WHITE WITH RED TRACER e When the water level rises in the washer tub air is trapped in the reservoir As the water level rises the air pressure in the reservoir increases The pressure is translated into an electrical signal frequency by the pressure sensor e frequency will vary from approximately 27 kHz empty tub to 22 kHz full tub e This frequency can be measured at the pressure sensor between the purple and orange wires The frequency is monitored by the inverter which turns off the water valves when the desired water level is achieved Note The water level will vary depending on the load size which is measured by the dry load and wet load sensing cycles This information is sent to the inverter which then determines the appropriate water level Pressure Sensor Test If the pressure sensor is not operating correctly perform the following test 1 Setthe wash cycle to SNEAKERS This cycle bypasses the load sensing feature and defaults to the minimum water level 2 Measure the water level from the center hub of the infusor it should be approximately 2 inches deep in the tub 3 Setthe washer to COMFORTER This cycle bypasses the load sensing feature and defaults to the maximum water level 4 Measure the water level from the center hub of the infusor it should be approximately 11 inches deep in the tub Note Before disconnecting the hose from the pressure sensor
