Error Code Explained
What Does the Wolf HUMIDITY SENSOR Error Code Mean?
Select Wolf warming drawer models (WD24, WD30) with moist heat capability use a humidity sensor to regulate the internal moisture level during moist warming modes. A humidity sensor fault means the sensor is not providing a valid signal to the control, preventing the moist heat mode from operating correctly. Dry heat modes remain available.
