Troubleshooting Chart Troubleshooting Chart TROUBLE CAUSE REMEDY Motor will not start. No power. Check fuses on circuit breakers. Make sure main control switch is “on”. Check bonnet thermostat (gas only). Incorrect power. Check power source; voltage, phase and frequency must be the same as specified on electrical rating plate.
Page 39
Troubleshooting Chart Troubleshooting Chart TROUBLE CAUSE REMEDY Dryer noisy or vibrating. Not leveled. Check manual for proper leveling procedures. Fan out of balance. Accidental damage to the fan blade can change the dynamic balance. Damaged fans should be replaced. Basket rubbing. Adjust basket clearance.
Page 40
Troubleshooting Chart Troubleshooting Chart TROUBLE CAUSE REMEDY Dryer runs, but no heat. Air switch out of adjustment. See air switch adjustment sheet. (continued) Air switch defective. Replace air switch. Gas pressure too low. Check manifold pressure and adjust to pressure specified on rating plate.
Page 41
Troubleshooting Chart Troubleshooting Chart TROUBLE CAUSE REMEDY Dryer too hot. Incorrect main burner orifice. Replace orifices. Check factory for correct size. Inadequate make-up air. Make-up air must be 4 to 6 times the exhaust area of the dryer. Lint accumulated. Remove lint.
