Randy for Model Number gew9250pw1 My dryer works in the timed dry cycle but will not shut off in auto dry. I have checked the moisture sensor and wiring harness ok. p1 p2 on the control board measures 1.6 megohms.diagnostics show beep as soon as buttons are pressed twice indicating shorted moisture sensor. Can the board be fixed?
Answer Hello Randy, When the unit will advance in timed dry but not in the automatic cycle, there is an airflow issue causing the hot moist air to blow past the drum seals where it is sensed again and prevents the timer motor from getting voltage. The fix for this is to correct the exhaust duct issue restricting the airflow to outside atmosphere. There are no parts that can be replaced to correct this. The ducting should be as short and straight as possible and there cannot be any crimps or clogs in the ducting. All of the manufacturers recommend against lint trapping flexible ducting. Read More...
