No matter the setting, my Kenmore Elite dryer only runs on the highest hot temp setting. Even on air dry setting, the heat is on high. Timer works fine, etc. Is this a thermistor problem or a control board problem? THANK YOU.

Tom L for Model Number Kenmore Elite dryer - 11084836201

Answer Hello Tom. Check and make sure the heater is not grounded. If not, then you will need to order and replace the control board on the unit.

My dryer will not start intermittently. When you select a cycle and hold the start button it clicks and the drum moves about an inch. However, sometimes it will start and run normally for 10min or so and then stop. And other times the motor will continue to run even when the stop/cancel button is pushed (if you open the door it will stop but when the door is closed again it will start back up even with the dryer off and no lights on the control panel. Any ideas?

Michael for Model Number 110.84836201

Answer Hello Michael. If there is power to the motor, and it does not run, then the motor is bad. If the power is start and stopping on it's own, then the control board is bad. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

When I hit "start", I hear the normal "click" and the timer starts counting down, but the motor never starts. I ran the diagnostics test and got no errors. I checked the thermal fuse, and it has continuity. The thermal cut-off also shows continuity. I accessed the machine control electronics and removed the main harness plug but left the others still connected. When I checked the resistance across P1-3 and P1-4, I got "OP" for open. My tech sheet says to replace the machine control electronics if the resistance reads 1-6 ohms. Does that mean that if my meter reads OP this board is good? I haven't checked the belt switch or the motor yet since they are harder to get to.

Jodi for Model Number GEW9260PW0

Answer Jodi, If you are getting an open reading then the machine electronic control is good. You will want to check the belt switch and check continuity of the door switch with door closed to make sure that it is good.

I have a whirlpool Duet dryer that is about 6 yrs old. I had the thermal fuse blow and I replaced it. I now see that the temp control is stuck open (keeps requesting heat) even if on "AIR ONLY CYCLE." I check the circuit and noticed that one of the wire leads attached to the control panel must have become real hot. The plastic connector melted a bit. Based upon my diagnostics (as limited as they are) it sounds like a control board. How can I be sure?

Rob for Model Number GEW9250PW1

Answer Rob, If the unit is calling for heat even on the air only cycle then it sounds like the heater relay on the control board is stuck. If you look at the heater relay there is a black and red wire coming off of it. If this is where the melting took place then the relay is bad and control board needs to be replaced.

Hello, my dryers control panel will lite up as normal, but when I push the start button it makes its normal clicking sound but will not start. Do I need the complete panel or should I look at other things.

Mike for Model Number gew9200lw1

Answer Mike, You will want to check to make sure that the door switch is showing continuity when door is closed. You will want to check the exhaust thermal fuse for being blown. It should have continuity and if not it will need to be replaced. If thermal is blown you will also want to check your venting to make sure that the vent is clear from the blower wheel all the way to the outside of home. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

Hi , My whirlpool gas dryer was stop couple day ago. I can turn on but when I hit start and then I heard the machine was "click" then nothing move the cycle. I though that eclectronic control board was bad. Is that right? Because when I open that I saw liitle burn on leg of the relay thing. Please give me some idea.

Brian for Model Number GGW9200LW1

Answer Hello Brian. If the control board has a burnt spot on it, you will need to order and replace the control board on the unit.

My dryer is heating up only for a short time period. After checking airflow, as well as the coil, thermostat and hi-temp sensor with an ohm meter, they all are working fine. I've switched to normal cycles and it seems to work. Am I going to have to replace the control board or is there something else I can check? Thanks, Mark

Mark for Model Number 110-82822102

Answer Hello Mark. If the unit works on one cycle, but not on the other, then you will need to replace the control in the unit. It should be the user interface board, but you will need to test and make sure the main pcb 8546219 is not shorting out on the relay. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

My dryer does not get hot enough to dry the clothes completely. The burner comes on but has a very short burn cycle maybe 2-3 seconds then goes off .I did moisture sensor test it appears ok.

Larry for Model Number 110.94821300

Answer Hello Larry, You will want to check the coils on the gas valve. Based on information this appears to be what would be wrong with unit.
