The gas models utilize a single 15-amp fuse installed
in series with L1. The electric models employ two
30-amp fuses, 1 in series with L1 and 1 in series with
L2. (See

Schematics and Wiring Diagrams
Excessive current draw in any dryer circuit will open
the fuse. An open fuse on the gas model will result in
a totally inoperative dryer.
On the electric model, an open fuse on the L1 (red
wire) will result in a totally inoperative dryer. An
open fuse on the L2 (black wire) will allow the control
panel to function, including the service test mode,
but the dryer will not operate. Identify and correct
the problem when replacing an open fuse.
