Mike for Model Number 11085872400 Randomly my dryer has power to light up the interior but the control panel will not light up or start the dryer. I have opened it up and cleaned all the electrical connectors then it starts working again for a while. A couple of times I could get it to go into diagnostic mode before opening it up, and that started it back up. If not, taking it apart and cleaning connections seems to get it back up for a while. When I was not home it quit again and my wife tried to get it into diagnostic mode with no luck. She read on line that opening and closing the door 6 times in 12 seconds will reset it. Sounded crazy to me but it worked for her. Again today it would not come on with either method until I took it apart and cleaned the connections then applied dielectric grease. Started working again. Is the panel bad?
Answer Mike, First check and make sure the connections at the terminal block, on the back of the dryer are good and tight. Check/replace the door switch, and check the wiring. If the problem persists, then replace the control board WP8546219 . Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, October 18, 2017
