279366 Whirlpool Sensor Kit

This Dryer Moisture Sensor Bar monitors the moisture levels of the clothing during the drying cycle and communicates a signal to the control board indicating when the clothes are dry and the cycle can finish. If your appliance shuts off too early or continues running after the clothes are already dry, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. Includes the sensor bars, pads and clips. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the dryer and novice repair experience. You must unplug the dryer or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before installing this part. The sensors are located in the plastic lint screen housing.
