Questions & Answers

For Frigidaire Switch (Part Number: OEM16951617)

1 Answer

Frank, If you remove the middle panel between the washer and dryer there will be a screw on either side that will allow the control panel to roll forward and come off. Then you remove the knob and disconnect the wiring from the switch. There will be a tab you lift and then rotate the switch to remove it.

Joe, you will need to find the tech sheet, typically located in the console or inside the washer cabinet. The beeping is a error code and you will need to put it into a diagnostic mode and retrieve the error codes.

Jonathan for Model Number FARE1011MW1

My dryer won't turn on, it just beeps. I tried to put it into diagnosis mode but it wouldn't make the long beep noise to confirm it entered diagnosis mode. I took it apart to test for continuity and the thermal fuses, thermostat, and door lock are all fine, but the thermistor was showing 39k resistance on the 200k setting. Can the thermistor cause it to not start? Also is there a way to test the start switch, and both control boards? Thanks for your time

1 Answer

Jonathan, if the outlet thermistor 134587700 is registering 39KO, it will tell the control that the unit is much hotter than it should be which can cause operational issues. The outlet thermistor should only read 5KO at room temperature. Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not provide a testing procedure for the user interface control 137332400NH and the main control A00499002 would be considered if every other component tests good. The beep notifies that the user interface is registering input, so it would not be a likely failure.

Dave, This issue would most likely be caused by a faulty main control board on the unit.

Bradley, Yes it could be a defective switch 137493300 / 137493300, or a loose or damaged wire. There is also a thermal limiter/fuse 134120900 / 134120900 located on the rear of the dryer cabinet wall, that if "open" will not allow the dryer to start and run. You may want to check the limiter fuse first.

Brandon, While it is possible for the unit to have a control board issue, you will want to access the tech sheet located inside the unit and put the unit into the diagnostics. You will want to check for stored error codes as this could be a main control board, speed control or door lock issue. The error code will point you in the correct direction.
