Venkat for Model Number dpsb613ed1ww

Thanks for helping. Dryer starts and heat fine for few minutes and then it suddenly switches to Delicate/lowheat mode. When you press the high heat again, runs for few minutes and back to Delicate/lowheat mode. I see the Orange colour behind the drum when running. also I checked the element which shows 20 ohms +20 ohms (2 coils). I checked the Thermistor (thermodisc) which seems fine. all the thermostats show continuity when dryer is off. Not sure what is the issue. But sometimes the entire high heat cycle works.

Answer

Venkat, Your post would indicate all the heating components are working properly. So the issue would most likely be in the control board WE4M296, either the relay is failing, and "drops" out or the board is selecting the low heat setting on it's own due to a loose or weak solder joint.
