Sharmaine N October 30, 2012 for Model Number cabrio dryer hi, dryer will not shut off even when cloths are dry or they aren't dry so put on second dry cycle and then they are so hot when it does shut off. so it over dry's them. is the sensor gone?
1 Answer Sharmaine, The sensor is probably not "gone", but you do want to check and clean the assembly, with rubbing alcohol, to remove any chemical build up on the metal sensor bars, and any lint or debris that may have accumulated on the assembly. If the problem persists, then repalce the assembly. Thanks Read More...
John July 16, 2012 for Model Number Whirlpool WGD 6400 SWO Hello, When set in the automatic mode, this dryer is suppose to sense when the clothes are dry and shut off, based upon heat setting. It does shut off, but the clothes are still damp. Starting it again, it does the same thing in approximately the same amount of time, with the load still being damp, although less. Eventually, you'd get the load dry if you continued in this manner. Drying the load on a timed cycle works fine. Would part no. AP3083393 be the culprit or is there another solution to the problem?
1 Answer Hello John. Yes, need to check and make sure the venting system is clear and the blower wheel on the unit is not clogged. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Fred. The F2 code is for a stuck key and you will need to replace the control panel WPW10110325. Hope this helps. Read More...
Dennis February 13, 2012 for Model Number WED6400SW1 If the sensor bar is out will it cause the unit to not heat?
1 Answer Hello Dennis. No, the sensor bar WP8576468 will not cause the unit not to heat. Check and make sure you have 240 volts coming to the dryer. Check and make sure the unit is not set to Air Fluff. Also check the heater and thermostats and see if they are good. You can test these with a multi-meter MA-DM1. They should read closed for continuity. 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...
