1 Answer Hello Lorraine. Make sure there is power coming to the dryer. If so, make sure the new timer, door switch, and the thermal fuse is hooked up correctly. If so, you will need to test the push to start switch 33002750 and make sure it is working properly. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...

Lorraine September 01, 2011 for Model Number MDE64ooayw (serial number 12513144cc) Dryer will not turn on, have replaced door switch and timer (AP4042974) . Help!
1 Answer Hello Lorraine. You will need to test the thermal fuse WP33001762 on the side of the heater housing. It should read closed for continuity. If it is bad, the unit will not run.

Honoree August 04, 2011 for Model Number LDE9304ACE Our dryer went out, and popped the circuit breaker. When we reset, everything worked except there was no heat. I have replaced the heating coil, but it's still not heating. What else might have been damaged.
1 Answer Honoree, Yes, If the heater element shorted, and the thermal fuse on the heater housing assembly WP307473 has an open circuit, the dryer will still not heat, you need to check or replace the thermal fuse as the next logical step. Good Luck. Read More...
Rodney June 28, 2011 for Model Number mde7400ayw No heat in my dryer everything else is working just no heat.
1 Answer Hello Rodney. First you will want to make sure that you are getting 240V to the unit by testing the outer outlet prongs or the terminal box on the dryer. If you are getting 240V you could have a defective element WPY308612 or a open thermostat WP3387137, WP303396. You will need a multi meter MA-DM1 to test. Here is a link you can refer to for help with using a multi meter: http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html . Thanks!

Martin June 07, 2011 for Model Number MDE5500AYW Received manual, thank you. Going through the troubleshooting matrix the "dryer runs a few minutes and stops" is close to the symptoms I'm experiencing. The check refers to a sensor bar may be the root problem. Could the sensor bar on the inside right of door open and cause the dryer to stop and not start?
1 Answer Hello Martin. The sensor bar can cause the dryer to stop early, but should not prevent it from starting back. Hope this helps. Read More...
Martin June 07, 2011 for Model Number MDE5500AYW I've replaced the control board, p/n AP4044079. According to the schematic mini-manual LED dryer 1214.doc (came with dryer), the LED tested good. It was the only diagnostic test I could perform with the original control board. Is the control panel just the LED pad? Or are there digital control circuits included? Could it cause the symptoms I've described?
1 Answer Hello Martin. If you would provide your email address, we can send you the service manual. There are several test you can perform to find the problem. Hope this helps. Read More...
Martin June 07, 2011 for Model Number MDE5500AYW I've replaced the control panel yesterday but still have the same symptoms. All panel lights work but the dryer will not start. Disconnecting power and reconnecting for an hour plus will allow the dryer to function a short time and locks-up again. What else could cause the dryer to freeze/lock and not function?
1 Answer Hello Martin. Did you replace the control panel 22004445 or the control board 33003028? Thanks. Read More...
Martin June 06, 2011 for Model Number MDE5500AYW Can the thermal fuse cause the signal alarm to sound at a set interval? Can it cause the dryer not to start sometimes?
1 Answer Hello Martin. No, if the thermal fuse is bad, the dryer will not work at all. It sounds like you may have a control 33003028 problem. Hope this helps. Read More...
1 Answer Hello John. You can test these with a multi-meter MA-DM1. They should read closed for continuity. Hope this helps. Read More...
