DIAGNOSTIC GUIDE

Before servicing, check the following:
Make sure there is power at the wall out-
let.
Has a household fuse blown or circuit
breaker tripped? Time delay fuse?
Is dryer vent properly installed and clear of
lint or obstructions?
All tests/checks should be made with a
VOM (volt-ohm-milliammeter) or DVM
(digital-voltmeter) having a sensitivity of
20,000 ohms per volt DC or greater.
Check all connections before replacing
components. Look for broken or loose
wires, failed terminals, or wires not pressed
into connectors far enough.
A potential cause of a control not function-
ing is corrosion on connections. Observe
connections and check for continuity with
an ohmmeter.
Connectors: Look at top of connector.
Check for broken or loose wires. Check
for wires not pressed into connector far
enough to engage metal barbs.
Resistance checks must be made with dry-
er unplugged or power disconnected.

DIAGNOSTIC TESTS

These tests allow factory or service person-
nel to test and verify all inputs to the machine
control electronics. You may want to do a
quick and overall checkup of the dryer with
these tests before going to specific trouble-
shooting tests.
