1 Answer

Vinny, With no button function, this would most likely be caused by a faulty control board on the unit.

Robert, the high heat condition may have ruined the motor relay on the control board. go to the control board that is mounted just above the drum on the left side. Find pin 1-4, with your meter, check to see if 120 volts is present from P1-4 and P1-2, if there is voltage, replace the control.

Earl, There are 2 components other than the thermostats which would cause the heating element not to work. First is the motor and second the Control board. The best option is to disconnect the power to the unit and access the heating element. Disconnect one wire that is going to the heating element, preferably the one on the thermostat side. Plug the unit back up and using a multimeter you will want to turn the dryer on and test for 120 vac at the terminal on the heater where the wire was disconnected. What this will do is eliminate the heater element itself and the motor. If there is 120 vac at this point then you know the heater is good and the motor is good because the other 120 vac coming through the thermostats is the control board side of the circuit. If there is not 120 vac at that point then you will want to test the other terminal on the heater and check for 120 vac. If there is not 120 vac then the motor would be bad .

Kevin for Model Number YGEW9250PW1

My dryer out of the blue (while idle) started beeping. The Control Locked light keeps going on and off and beeping each time it changes about every 2-3 seconds. None of the controls are responsive. I can't get it to go into the diagnostics mode. I am pretty sure the board at fault is P/N 8449531. I have read of many others having this same issue. Most are solved by unplugging and plugging back in, but mine is not responding to this. Is this something you have reported before? If so is this the part (one of the parts) responsible and seeing I was redirected to P/N AP4297114 is this the right part for the YGEW9250PW1 PS: visually inspection of both sides of the boards reveals nothing wrong. Everything looks clean, no burn marks or anything that should cause an issue so not sure why it is acting up. Any help is greatly appreciated.
