Midmark Water Level Installation Tip
- Unplug the unit from the wall before proceeding
- Make sure the unit is level in all directions (front to back and side to side)
- Remove the exisiting water level sensor
- Insert the new water level sensor into the hole inside of the chamber, make sure the spacer seats in the hole
- Install the compression nut and hand tighten only (leave it loose enough you can still manipulate the sensor)into position
- Pour distilled water directly into the chamber until it reaches the front dam
- Move the sensor disk until it just touches the water
- Tighten the compression nut 1-1/4 turns past finger tight
- Install the terminal and terminal nut onto the Teflon tube
- Reconnect the sensor wire
If it is installed correctly, you should be able to start a cycle. It should go directly to the heat up mode (the water is touching the sensor.... completeing the circuit and telling the PC Board that there is sufficient water to proceed)
