697870152 OEM Sensor suits Smeg Appliances, Aftermarket Replacement Sensor for Smeg Part 697870152

Part 697870152 is an OEM sensor to suit Smeg appliances, made as an aftermarket match for the Smeg part with the same number. The record doesn't say what the sensor measures or which appliance it sits in. Smeg uses temperature probes, water level sensors and other sensing parts across its ovens, dishwashers and laundry, so the part number is how to confirm this is yours. Check the number on the old sensor before you buy.

How a failed sensor shows up

Sensors report conditions like temperature, water level or position back to the appliance's control, which then decides when to heat, fill, drain or stop. When a sensor drifts out of range or its wiring breaks, the control receives a wrong reading or none at all. You might see an error code, food cooking too hot or too cold, water heating poorly, a cycle that stalls part way through, or the appliance refusing to start. A multimeter test against the specified values confirms the fault before you replace the part.
