I have code heat sensor 01 coming up needing the part to fix it
Hello Keith, thank you for the question. The "Heat Sensor 01" error code indicates a temperature sensor fault. It means the sensor or its circuit is open, shorted, or reading inconsistent temperatures. This sensor comes with the heater, part number PS12742459. Also, check the air flow and lint for blockages. If airflow is restricted, the internal temperature can spike rapidly and trigger this error as a safety precaution. Clean the lint filter. Wash it with warm, soapy water and a soft brush to remove any residue from fabric softeners. Check the vent hose by pulling the machine away from the wall and ensure the exhaust duct isn't crushed or kinked. Check the exterior vent. Go outside while the unit is running and make sure the exterior flapper is opening and expelling air forcefully. We hope this is what you were looking for!
Won’t drain but drain pump has been replaced and is functioning
Hello Laura, thank you for the question. Check the drain pump filter. Unplug the washer and empty the small drainage hose near the pump filter. Remove the filter and check for debris, even if it looks clean inside. Inspect the sump hose. The ribbed hose connecting the tub to the pump is a common spot for small items to get trapped. Check the drain hose. Ensure the external drain hose is not kinked, pinched, or clogged. Ensure it is not pushed too far down the standpipe, which can cause siphon issues. Check the pressure switch, part number PS12581329. It could be faulty, not draining the unit properly. We hope this is what you were looking for!
It is the door on top of the unit that you clean the vent out where buildup from the dryer is stored. My unit is brand new, but the door on the top of the unit has two pegs at the end of it that have been broken off, probably at Lowe’s. Can I order this part and have it shipped?
Hi Rocky, thank you for reaching out. The part that you are referring to is the lint filter assembly, part number PS17630456. You can order it from us. If you require assistance to place an order, please contact customer service!
