James May 07, 2017 for Model Number FAQE7011KR0 Dryer continuously runs, wont shut down unless I open door what wood cause this.
1 Answer James, The part that would most likely keep the dryer running unless the door is open will be a faulty control board 137070840NH. Read More...
Adam February 02, 2017 for Model Number AEQ6000ES2 Dryer will not start. I get no error code and it does give me a door open message. When I press 'Start' I hear the board click but nothing happens. The lights indicate it thinks it is drying, but it isnt spinning or heating. I just replaced the thermal fuse, but it did not fix it. Thinking possibly the thermistor, but not sure. Any suggestions?
1 Answer Hello Adam. You will need to check and see if the belt is bad on the unit. If it is good and the door switch and thermal fuse are good, you will need to check the motor and the control board on the unit. Read More...
Ileana February 19, 2016 for Model Number frigidaire dryer #FAS7073LW0 My dryer stopped working and it says door open but its not open. I checked to see what error code it gave me and it states E66 which has nothing to do with door, but with the thermostat. So if I order the outlet thermal limiter how do I know that will take care of problem.
1 Answer Ileana, The thermal limiter getting replaced will take care of part of the issue that you have come across with the E66 error. As for the unit saying door is open then you will want to check the door switch to make sure that it is good and that it has continuity when pressed in. If the door switch checks ok then the control will be the most likely cause for the issue. Read More...
Peter L November 20, 2015 for Model Number fase7073nw2 Dryer runs for 22 min then shuts off.Will turn back on Machine is hot.Vents all clear Mess board Do not say anything but when I run Diagnostic Ck it comes up ef2
1 Answer Peter, There is no EF2 error showing on the tech sheet for this unit. As for the EF error codes they are for blocked duct, a bad exhaust thermistor, inlet thermistor or a faulty control board. You will want to double check venting from the blower wheel to the outside of the home to make sure that there is no blockage. You can also disconnect the hose from the back of the unit and run a load to see if it still does the same thing, if it does then test the control thermistor and the inlet thermistor for resistance. If they both check ok then the issue will be the control board. Read More...
Vance November 11, 2015 for Model Number GLEQ2152ES0 the relay on my old control board loosened up. I got a new control board. The dryer worked 3 days then stopped heating. When taking the control panel off the dryer, the relay and both the black and red wires showed that they had become very hot. Beginning to melt the relay. What would cause this?
1 Answer Hello Vance. It sounds like the control board failed and will need to be replaced. Read More...
Kevin August 17, 2015 for Model Number 417.88042700 I am having trouble and went through the process of finding the trouble code on a non-digital model. What I came up with is a 3 . One time it repeated it two times and then a single beep and light on the cool down cycle. After clearing the code I only get e code of three. I don't know how to diagnose the trouble with this code? Could you please help me?
1 Answer Kevin, The 3 error is Water fill/ water level or drain pump problem. This type of fault could be temporary or permanent. If this fault occurs, the control will stop the washer and display F03. For the fill system, the problem could be the inlet water is turned off. To test the filling fault, run the washer with no load and check if the tub fills to the proper level. If the tub over fills or the water does not shut off, check the pressure switch. Wiring and the pressure tube connection to the air dome and pressure switch. If these check out, the problem could be in the pressure switch or water valve. If the tub fills correctly, run the washer in the Drain/Spin cycle to assure the pump operates and pumps out water. If the pump is not running, check the wiring connections. If the wiring is proper and seated, measure the voltage across pins 1 and 2 on the pump connector, it should be about 120VAC. If it is not, check the voltage between pin 3 of the 4-pin connector (JX) and pin 3 of the 8-pin connector (J11)(NEUTRAL). Voltage should measure about 120VAC. Read More...
David May 02, 2015 for Model Number 41788042700 I just replaced the heating element in my dryer, which I have done twice before since owning it, everything seemed fine and everything light up like normal but when I started it, it tripped my fuse, and now it keeps tripping the fuse. I checked for continuity on the heating element, thermal fuse and thermal limitor, all are okay. I checked the thermistor and there was no continuity but it did register about 50 ohms, I don't know if there is supposed to be continuity. Do you have any ideas why this keeps tripping my fuse?
1 Answer David, You will want to make sure that the heating element is not touching the metal housing and that the rear bearing is also not touching the element. If either of these are occurring then this would cause the unit to trip the breaker. Read More...
Keith J April 15, 2015 for Model Number GLEQ2152ES0 The thermistor right downstream of the blower P/N 134587700 has failed twice in the last two months. The most recent replacements about two months. There is no excessive lint or obstructions. Anything else to look at and / or replace that is causing this? When the dryer is operating it does not seem to heat as much as it should. Also, the large heating coil did fail and was replaced about 6 months ago. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
1 Answer Keith, You will want to double check the venting from the unit to the outside of the home to ensure there is no blockage. This issue sounds like it could be caused by a faulty inlet thermistor. Read More...
Steve March 15, 2015 for Model Number FASG7073LW0 Dryer control panel indicates "open door" , a code E66 flashed once. Even though door is shut. No light inside when door is opened.
1 Answer Steve, you'll need to check or replace the exhaust limiter 134711401. If the dryer overheats and the fuse opens, L1 power to the door switch and control board is eliminated and the dryer will not start or run and the control will not register the voltage on the door switch circuit and the E66 code and the drum light will not illuminate.

David R. January 03, 2015 for Model Number frigidaire feq1442es0 My dryer almost immediately starts to overheat when set to "normal" cycle setting and set to high temp, this problem also occurs at medium heat setting but never at low setting. I have zero air restrictions, have checked all thermostats/thermistors that are accesible besides what is in the control panel. Also, when temp gets up, it sounds as if either the drum or the fan is running out of balance (I am not sure if this is due to extreme temps or another issue). Hate to replace this thing, have replaced all bearings previously. Help, if you are willing!
1 Answer David, With all of the thermostats checking ok and there being no restrictions in the venting, this issue would most likely be caused by a sticking relay on the control board. It sounds like the heater relay is stuck and causing this issue. Read More...
