Answer

Hello Kerry, You need to check the thermal fuse 675796. You can just check both sides to ground and if voltage is present on both sides, check the door switches 4318273. This model uses one switch for 120Vac and the other for neutral. Since you said you have 120Vac to the board, you need to check the other switch that carries neutral. You can use the hot terminal to test to so you will see a reading. Using the hot terminal as the reference for the test, go to both sides of the door switches and the one that shows 120Vac is the switch for neutral. It needs to read the 120Vac to both sides of this switch when the switch is closed. If this tests good, the control WP8530929 will be at fault.
