Ge WE04M10004 Dryer Control Board (Mounted Assembly) OEM Part

On/Off switch was not working on our GE dryer. An appliance repair person told me he would charge $350 for the part and service. Purchased the part needed from AppliancePartsPros.com for around $130 (including S&H). The part was delivered within a few days and took literally minutes to install with socket set, pliers and a phillips head screwdriver.

Ordered the new board assembly, installed it, and all is good again! Was very impressed by how quickly the part was delivered! Had it within three days, so there was virtually no actual down time or problems with keeping up with the laundry needs.

I disassembled the dryer and through troubleshooting found that only one of three heater elements on the back wall of the fryer was working (turning orange). I traced the wiring from the heater elements back to the control board assembly where I found a severe short (burn mark) on the surface of the board. I purchased a new control board assembly which solved the problem. When installing the new board, be sure to transfer the jumper assembly from the old board to the new board. Otherwise the digital display will flash "88" and the dryer won't work.

Smelled a little bit of a burning smell. Unplugged the machine and tested the outlet. No heat and no smell from plug and power was good. I had no digital readout at all, so I took the control panel apart and found a transformer on the board had burnt out. I ordered a new board. When the new board arrived it was just plugged and play even though there was a little bit of a difference between the new and old boards.

After a professional diagnosis of the problem (which I paid for, but declined the ensuing estimated cost to repair) I ordered this board and replaced it myself. It worked perfectly and cost less than half.
