How to Fix LOADSENSOR Error (Step-by-Step)

See the ‘LoadSensor’ indicator on the display. This is not an error but an indication of a smart feature at work.
This feature uses sensors to automatically detect the size of the load of dishes inside the dishwasher.
Based on the detected load size, the dishwasher’s control unit adjusts the water and energy consumption for that specific cycle.
This ensures optimal cleaning performance while conserving resources for smaller loads.
No action is required from you. The process is entirely automatic.
You can continue to use your dishwasher as normal, knowing it is operating efficiently.
Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

Still Not Working?
If the replacement part didn’t fix the issue, you may have a wiring problem or main board failure.
