Rw for Model Number ADMIRAL ADE7000AYW DRYER My dryer quit working. Prior to it's stop, the inside space between the front panel and the collector was full of lint, to where the lint trap would not seat properly. I took apart and cleaned out. Right after that dryer ran, but then suddenly stopped. No power at all, door light off. I found your forum, and found it it could be the door switch, one of the fuses or thermostats. I am beginning my testing, starting with the door switch, which is out of the dryer. I have a rubber band holding down the button. Connection between COM and NC shows 1 on the Ohm meter, but connection between COM and NO leads fluctuates between 21-25. Is this normal?
Answer RW, First check and make sure you have 220/240 VAC at the terminal block on the back of the dryer. Then check the door switch and wiring WP53-0148 and make sure the switch "clicks" when you press and release the plunger. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
