Armand for Model Number Whirlpool duet Dryer I get a code 3 on my readout window. and have determined that I need to replace the Thermistor. My question is where is it located and how do I acess the area to perform the replacement. Thanks
Answer Armand, You'll find your control thermistor located on the top, backside of the blower housing. Heres some help : "1. Turn off the gas to the dryer and disconnect the electrical power. 2. Open the dryer door and remove the lint filter screen, then close the door.3. Remove the two hex-head screws from the bottom flange of the toe panel. Pull the panel out at the bottom, pull down, and remove the panel.4. Remove the hex-head screw from the lint duct bracket and remove the bracket. 5. Remove the two hex-head screws from the lint duct and remove the duct. 6. To remove the thermal fuse or thermistor: a) Remove the two wires from the terminals. b) Remove the two hex-head screws." That should get you through the repair. Good Luck and Thanks Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Monday, October 10, 2011
