Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Dryer Belt Switch Kit (Part Number: OEM9282699)

1 Answer

Hello John. You need to test the thermal fuse and make sure it is good. If so, then test the door switch aslo. Both parts should read closed for continuity. If both parts are good, and there is power to the motor, but the motor does not run, you will need to order and replace the motor in the unit. 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

Hello Scot. No, you will need to replace the belt and make sure the idler is pushing the switch 279782 with the belt on to close the circuit. Hope this helps.
