easy fix
It's just a fuse. The website was easy to navigate. The tutorial was great and explained the process clearly to determine what part was needed. The parts page had the fuse highlighted as a most common problem. Shipping was fast, the part was not too expensive. ALL GOOD! It needed a cleaning anyway.

Take that extra step
Straightforward in the replacement. Make sure you take the wires off the old one before removing and place it on the new one then install the new one. Ensure that you clean all shoots and the fan section before replacing this particular sensor and it is a good idea to blow out and vacuum out the machine totally.
