LG Washing Machine Cover,Front

The LG Dryer Moisture Sensor Grille (Part Number: MCK48435501) is an authentic original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement component designed for LG clothes dryers and washer-dryer combination units. Positioned on the front bulkhead directly adjacent to the lint filter duct, this curved housing guides airflow while holding the metallic sensor electrodes in place. As tumbling garments brush against the sensor bars seated in the grille, the system measures residual moisture levels and relays the data to the main electronic control board (PCB) to automatically terminate the cycle when clothes are dry.

Key Features

• Integrated Sensor Bar Channels: Engineered with precision slots designed to securely hold dual metallic moisture-sensing electrode strips.

• Hydrodynamic Curved Airflow Grille: Features a contoured intake profile that promotes smooth exhaust airflow into the lint trap without snagging delicate fabrics.

• Durable Heat-Resistant Polymer: Molded from heavy-duty, temperature-stable plastic engineered to resist continuous high drying heat, friction, and moisture without warping or cracking.

Benefits

• Solves auto-sense cycles shutting down prematurely while clothes remain damp, cycles running indefinitely causing over-drying, cracked/broken sensor housings, or garments snagging on worn plastic edges.

• Optimizes energy consumption and shortens drying times by restoring precise moisture detection.

• Direct OEM replacement guarantees exact alignment with the front bulkhead and lint screen housing.

Applications Designed specifically for select LG tumble dryers, gas/electric dryers, and washer-dryer combination models requiring part number MCK48435501.

What's Included

• 1 x Genuine LG Dryer Moisture Sensor Grille (MCK48435501)

Usage Instructions

1. Unplug the dryer/washer-dryer from the main AC electrical outlet and shut off gas or water supplies before servicing.

2. Open the dryer door and remove the lint filter assembly.

3. Unscrew the mounting screws securing the front lint duct and sensor grille housing to the front bulkhead.

4. Carefully disconnect the wiring leads from the moisture sensor electrodes behind the grille.

5. Transfer the metallic sensor bars into the new LG MCK48435501 grille (or connect to pre-installed electrodes).

6. Reconnect the sensor wire harness, secure the grille housing back onto the bulkhead with original screws, reinsert the lint filter, and restore power.

Safety Instructions

• Disconnect main AC electrical power and ensure the internal drum area has fully cooled before servicing.

Care Instructions

• Periodically wipe the sensor grille and metal electrode bars with a cloth dampened in rubbing alcohol to remove fabric softener or dryer sheet film.
