Water‑level and load‑sensing sensors are now standard in both front‑load and top‑load washing machines, but they behave differently across the two designs. For technicians and homeowners in Nairobi, understanding how these sensors work in each type of machine helps avoid overfill, underfill, and error codes such as “IE”, “OE”, or “E1” during washing‑machine repairs. How water‑level sensors work Water‑level sensors (often pressure‑type or electronic pressure‑sensing modules) monitor air pressure in a small tube connected from the tub to the control board. As the tub fills, the rising water compresses the air in the tube, and the sensor translates this pressure … Continue reading Water‑level and load‑sensing sensors in Front vs Top Load Machines
