Washer-dryer combo reports water temperature sensor out of range; wash temperatures inconsistent.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Drifting NTC sensor, Poor thermal contact with tub, Incorrect replacement sensor, Main control miscalibration

Safety first: Disconnect power before servicing.

Verify correct part: Ensure the installed NTC sensor is the correct Frigidaire part number for your model.
Check mounting: Make sure the sensor is fully seated in the tub wall and making good thermal contact.
Compare resistance: Measure sensor resistance at known temperatures (room temp, warm water) and compare to spec. Replace if significantly off.
Replace control board: If a correct, known-good sensor still reads out of range, the main control may be misreading and require replacement.
