W11410464 Whirlpool Turbidity Sensor for Dishwashers

The Turbidity Sensor for dishwashers is a genuine OEM replacement part designed to fit Whirlpool models, as well as appliances from Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, it is compatible with certain Sears-Kenmore and Ikea dishwashers. This sensor plays a critical role in the dishwasher's operation by measuring the cleanliness of the water during the wash cycle. It assesses the amount of dirt and food particles present and adjusts the cycle to ensure optimal cleaning efficiency. This may include altering the duration of the wash cycle or adding more detergent and rinse aids as needed.

Common signs that may indicate a malfunctioning sensor include dishes that are not completely clean after a cycle, stains or residue left on dishes, and cycles that run longer than usual or fail to complete. These issues can arise from normal wear and tear, accumulation of grime and debris, or electrical faults within the sensor.

If you experience any of these symptoms, it might be necessary to consider replacing the sensor to maintain the dishwasher's performance. Using this specific OEM part ensures compatibility and reliability with your appliance.
