How to Fix a Kenmore Washer With an F24 Code
The F24 error code on a Kenmore washer indicates a potential issue with the water temperature sensor. This sensor is responsible for measuring the water temperature inside the washer during the wash cycle. The control board relies on this information to regulate the water heating process and ensure the water reaches the appropriate temperature for the selected wash cycle.
Here are two possible reasons for the F24 error in your Kenmore washer:
- Faulty Water Temperature Sensor - Over time, the water temperature sensor can malfunction and send inaccurate readings to the control board. This can lead to the F24 error because the control board won't have the correct water temperature data.
- Incorrect Water Temperature - Less likely, but still a possibility, is that the actual water temperature entering the washer is outside the acceptable range. This could be due to a problem with your home's hot or cold water supply.
