Reynolds for Model Number SHE45M06UC/48 During the drying portion (last 20 minutes of the "normal" cycle), I heard a humming noise that was not consistent with drying (i.e. no noise) and noticed a smell like electrical circuitry had overheated, opened the door and heard some gurgling like a pump was running, but the tub was empty and dishes were dry. How do I troubleshoot this? Today I will remove the door covering and check wiring for obvious signs of melted insulation, etc.Any thoughts on these symptoms?
Answer Reynolds, Most likely you are hearing the drain pump running. Especially if it continues when the door is open. You will probably find water down in the base of your unit wich has activated the flood switch. The machine thinks there is overfilling and initiates the drain pump. Most of the time the valve needs replaced because it will not open all the way and leaks water out of a air gap on your left side water inlet system. Remove the unit from the cabinets and check the base for water. Dry thoroughly and with the unit still out start a cycle and look the leaks as it fills and runs. Keep an eye on the left side water inlet during fill. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, February 1, 2023
