Table for codedenition).
• Start/Pause rotary selector dial functional.
• Control Board operational.
• Belt o or broken and Belt Cut-o Switch operates.
• Drive motor functional.
• Check motor winding resistance: 2.88ohms between pin #3 and
4, 3.5ohms between pin #4 and 5.
2
Motor runs/ tumbler
will not turn
• Belt o or broken/damaged.
• Idler tension spring too weak or stretched.
• Idler pulley jammed or stuck.

Runs a few minutes
and then stops
• Lint buildup around drive motor.

Blows fuses or trips
circuit breaker
- Is the belt connected well?
- Is the winding of the motor continuous?
(Rotor winding, stator winding, generator)
- Is the motor protector normal?
• If above points are not found, the PCB assembly is out of order.
Replace it.

Blows fuses or trips
circuit breaker (Gas
Model)
• During ignition the dryer will draw X amps. With the burner ON,
the dryer will draw X amps. If the dryer is drawing amperages
above this, then the house wiring, fuse box or circuit breaker is
suspected to be at fault.
• Igniter harness loose and shorted to base.
• Incorrect wiring or wire shorted to ground.
• Drive motor winding shorting to ground.
6
Will not heat (motor
runs)
Open heating element.
• Hi-Limit trips easily or is open.
• Regulating thermostat trips easily or is open.
• Membrane switch open.
• Check Thermistor.
7
Will Not Dry Gas
Model Poor Gas
Ignition
When the dryer is operated on a heat setting, the igniter should be
energized and burner shall re within 45 seconds at 120 VAC. The
failure of a component in this system will usually be indicated by one
of three symptoms:
