4. Check for voltage on pin #2 (yellow wire) of the computer 9-pin connector (top 9-pin connector is for the
top basket [tumbler] and bottom 9-pin connector is for the bottom basket [tumbler]). If voltage is present,
replace the computer.
5. If the above steps were performed correctly, the problem could be a bad wire(s) or termination(s), from the
24 volt transformer through the I/O J4 (top basket [tumbler]) or J3 (bottom basket [tumbler]) connectors,
or to the main and lint drawer switches.
G. “dSFL” Condition
When the display reads “dSFL” it is an indication that there is a fault in the microprocessor’s heat sensing circuit.
This circuit includes the microprocessor controller (computer), the temperature sensor, or the wires or connectors
leading to and from these two points.
1. Check to see if the 1/8-amp fuse located on the computer is blown. To verify, check with an ohm meter. If
no continuity, replace with ADC P/N: 136048 fuse. If fuse repeatedly blows out, refer to Step #4.
2. Replace the temperature sensor (ADC P/N: 880111).
3. Discontinue power to the dryer. Disconnect the 9-pin connector from the computer top basket (tumbler)
(top connector) or bottom basket (tumbler) (bottom connector). The temperature sensor is wired into pins
7 and 8 of that 9-pin connector. Check for continuity on each wire from the 9-pin connector to the
temperature sensor connector above the lint screen. If there is no continuity on either one of these two
wires, the problem is a bad wire or termination from the computer to the temperature sensor bracket.
4. If the computer fuse repeatedly blows, there is a short in one of the sensor wires.
