Whirlpool MED / GD 9600S Diagnostic Console switches and indica- tors, Diagnostic Moisture Sensor

Diagnostic: Console switches and indica- tors.

Pressing each button, or turning the cycle se- lector to each cycle, should cause a beep tone and control one or more LEDs. Pressing the Hold To Start button will also control the motor and heater, while the 2-digit display will indi- cate a software project identification number.

Diagnostic: Moisture Sensor

Locate the two metal strips on the face of the lint screen housing. Bridge these strips with a wet cloth or a finger. If a beep is heard, and a software revision number is displayed on the console, the sensor is okay. If not, or if a beep tone is heard before bridging the moisture strips, go to TEST #4, (Moisture Sensor Test), step 2, on page 6-10.

Diagnostic: Door Switch

Opening the door should cause a beep tone and a number and letter to be indicated in the 2-digit display. Closing the door firmly should cause a beep tone and the display to go blank, or indicate “88”.
