Suzi November 03, 2014 for Model Number LGHC2342LF0 The auger moves real fast. It shoots ice out too fast. Ice and water over shoots glass. What causes this to happen?
1 Answer Hello Suzi, This is going to have to be an issue with the dispense board 241973711. Read More...
Donna September 27, 2014 for Model Number AEQ6000ES2 The thermistor #134587700 has two connections one solid blue and other is stripped blue. Does it matter which connector that attach to?
1 Answer Donna, It would not make a difference with which way that the wires are connected. Read More...
Michael P August 12, 2014 for Model Number EIED55HMB0 Hello, Electrolux electric dryer EIED55HMB0 will run for a few minutes and then shut down error code E63. It does seem to heat the clothing until it shuts down. I have to unplug it for a bit, plug it back in before the code will reset. Get same results after running it again. What part should I be looking at first. Google says heating element but if it is heating up how can it be bad?
1 Answer Michael, The E63 error code is a heater earth to ground. You will want to check the heater coils and connections for short circuits to the cabinet. Replace the heater and/or wiring and retest. Read More...
Mark August 12, 2014 for Model Number leq7000eso What is the resistance reading of thermistor control #ap3866842? Mine is reading 48k. All my other switches test OK
1 Answer Hello Mark. The control thermistor on your dryer should have a room temperature resistance reading of approximately 50K ohms. If not then the thermistor is faulty and would need to be replaced. Read More...
Steve August 12, 2014 for Model Number LEQ6000ES0 My dryer no longer heats up. I have done some research, and some diagnosis based on the code E5B. My voltage at the block is 240, my voltage at the heating element is the same. I tested the Thermistor next, which reads approx. 15K Ohms at room temperature, indicating that it would need replacement. Logic tells me that if the heating element has 240 volts, that it should heat, unless it's bad. I would think that if the thermistor were bad, there would be no voltage at the element. Is this not correct? I am trying to determine whether I need the thermistor, or the element.
1 Answer Hello Steve. That is correct. If there is 240 volts there, it should heat. Also, test the element for continuity. It should read closed. If open, it is bad. 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...
Corey July 28, 2014 for Model Number 417.94152500 Kenmore Dryer My dryer does not heat up. I have cleaned the vent to outside and already know about that. The gas burner doesn't come on. Sometimes I can unplug it and plug it back in attempting to reset it and it sometimes works. I listen for the burners to come on. I was wondering if it could be coils or a number of things? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Corey, This can be the coils 5303931775, the gas valve 5303207409, an ignitor 5304517325 breaking down, or it could be a relay issue on the board. The best way to determine this is with an amp meter. If the current is 3.2 to 3.6 amps of current, the issue is most likely the gas valve. If the current is below 3.2 amps, the problem is most likely the ignitor. Read More...
Dave J May 31, 2014 for Model Number 41794072301 The control panel works on my dryer but it will not turn on. When I tried to start it this morning I hit start, heard a "click" and nothing. It will simply now run. Do I need to replace the Thermstor Control? YouTube vids say that or the thermal fuse. I can't find the thermal fuse.
1 Answer Dave, The issue could be the control thermistor being faulty, but you will also want to check the door switch to make sure that it is good. Read More...
Darin B May 09, 2014 for Model Number faqg7073kw0 On model faqg7073kw0, when testing the Control Thermistor part #134587700 with a multi-meter, should it show continuity? I have a dryer that has slightly damp clothes when done and I've already tried changing the coils. The two limiters and high limit thermostat shows continuity. The control thermistor on the blower does not. Thanks!
1 Answer Darin, The control thermistor on your dryer should have a room temperature resistance reading of approximately 50K ohms. If not then the thermistor is faulty and would need to be replaced. Read More...
Tom May 04, 2014 for Model Number GLEQ2152ESO The dryer does not want to put out any heat it takes for ever to dry anything.
1 Answer Tom, Have you disconnected the exhaust vent and checked the vent pipe and vent hood for clogs, obstructions, kinks, twists, etc. You also need to make sure you have 220 - 240 VAC at the terminal block on the back of the dryer. The hi limit thermostat will reset once the dryer temp has dropped to acceptable levels, but it could be weak, especially if you've been operating with a clogged vent for an extended period. and the control thermistor should register 50K ohms across the terminals at room temp.

Dave B March 30, 2014 for Model Number fase7073lao Dryer starts normal but about ten minutes a code e64 comes up and the heater stops.
1 Answer Dave, The error code E64 represents a heater open circuit. Check heater coils and connections for shorts to the cabinet. Replace the heater and or wiring if damaged and retest. Read More...
