METHOD OF USING TURBIDITY MEASUREMENTS TO DETECT WASH ADDITIVES IN A WASHING MACHINE APPLIANCE

Abstract: a method for operating a washing machine appliance includes initiating a rinse cycle of the washing machine appliance, operating a dispensing assembly to dispense wash fluid into the wash tub, obtaining a wash fluid turbidity of the wash fluid using the turbidity sensor, determining that a target volume of wash additive was added to the wash fluid based at least in part on the wash fluid turbidity, and implementing a responsive action in response to determining that the target volume of the wash additive was added to the wash fluid.
