Don Bergherm January 25, 2012 Please instruct me on the terminals to which I connect the pigtail on a Maytag Clothes Dryer.
1 Answer Don, Here's some help," 3-wire or 4-wire Plug Connection Four-wire cord is required for mobile homes or where codes do not permit grounding through neutral. 1. Remove access cover from rear of dryer. 2. Use a strain relief and insert end of power cord through power supply hole. 3. Use the three screws from envelope located in the drum to attach the remaining power cord wires to the terminal block as follows: • Red wire or left side wire terminal to “L1” terminal (left side outer terminal.) • Black wire or right side wire terminal to “L2” terminal.(right side outer terminal) • White wire or center terminal to Neutral terminal (center terminal). • 4-wire Plug Only—Remove ground screw and detach ground wire from bulkhead. Attach power cord ground (green) wire to rear bulkhead using ground screw. Attach free ground wire, previously attached with ground screw, with white wire to the neutral (center) terminal on the terminal block." Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
Su November 03, 2011 Are there wiring instructions for the ceramic terminal block AP2021501? Do not even know how to get into the panel behind the dial which is to the right of the upper oven on my old 2 oven, 4 burner Hotpoint Range.
1 Answer Hello Su. No, there is no wiring instructions with the terminal block WB17X5051, but you will remove the wires from the old terminal block and install them into the new terminal block. There are clips on the terminals you will release to remove the wires from the old block assembly. Hope this helps. Read More...
F. D. September 12, 2011 for Model Number J BP23 OF3WH I think I also need the wires for the terminal block AP2021501, long enough to go to the rotary dial switch that controls the element. Would you have a kit or do you sell the correct wire? Many thanks, FD
1 Answer Hello! The manufacture does not offer this part. However, we have a high temp wire available you can use, part number TJMA0514G. Thanks! Read More...
Guest March 18, 2011 On the third picture, on the bottom row what is the square piece with the hole? I did not see a corresponding part when I removed my old block, and therefore have this piece leftover. Is that Ok?
1 Answer Hello. Yes, that is a mounting clip. If your model does not use it, then it is ok to be left off. Hope this helps. Read More...
