Buddy for Model Number PYET444AYW S/N 15833128GL No heat. New LA 1053 hi temp and pink dot thermal in, continuity on all isolated. Continuity on element isolated only 8 weeks old. Cycling thermostat not replaced but tests closed large/7K small isolated. Continuity on door switch isolated. 240V confirmed at outlet. Vents clear, front panel disassembled and cleaned, lint path clear. Timer turns and seems to run normally. Before investing in a new timer (or trashing the entire dryer), is there a way to test for possible timer fault? Diagram or specific leads to test that might indicate timer is causing heating failure? Any other non-timer ideas I didn't cover? Thanks!
Answer Hello Buddy. Test for 120 VAC from the timer to the heater. If it is not there, then the timer is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
