John C March 24, 2022 for Model Number Maytag MEDC465HW0 My dryer is having heat issues. The element is tested and works fine. Dryer would not heat until I started rotating the front console temperature selection switch. It now runs fine on low heat but not on high. On high I get no heat at all. Could the issue be with one of the other rear sensors/fuses which is perhaps not working at high temp?... or do you think it's most likely the front console temp selection switch? Thanks in advance. John
1 Answer John C, Based on the information provided I would check it with a multimeter to see where the power is lost in the heating circuit. Read More...
James November 30, 2021 for Model Number medc465hw0 Guessing it's the temp control switch that is not working properly. The heat doesn't also come on. When you change the setting on the temp control back and forth most times it will begin to heat and go through the drying cycle. Any suggestions to trouble shoot before I purchase the switch ?
1 Answer James, Based on this issue, it would most likely be an issue with the temperature switch. Read More...
Ricky Pearson March 04, 2014 for Model Number medc300xw1 Have two new Maytag dryers. Both were hooked up with hot to ground. When I purchased them I wired them back right. When pushing start button it runs and will heat as long as you hold knob down. I have replaced timer and motor. Replaced the electronic board. Everything ohms out and I have no wires shorted. It still does the same thing. When I push start button. I had a tech check it and could find nothing wrong.
1 Answer Ricky, The start switch has a coil in it and is most likely the cause for the issue that you having. You can check from Light blue to Pink/black on the start switch to see if the coil is burnt out. The part number for the switch is WPW10117655. If this is not the issue then you will need to trace the neutral back to see where you are losing it. Read More...
