Dan October 03, 2016 for Model Number MEDE300VW0 Several weeks ago the dryer stopped working. Upon investigation I found the Primary Control board was fried. I replaced the board and the dryer began working, unfortunately it runs 10 minutes and shuts off. I ran the diagnostic test as per tech sheet and got F28 error code. I replaced the moisture sensor but the problem still persists. What would you recommend the problem could be? I don't know if I should replace the thermistor or the machine control electronic board. Thank you in advance for your help.
1 Answer Hello Dan. This fault code appears ONLY when in the Diagnostic Test Mode. It sounds like the motor may be overheating. If the dryer has to sit a few minutes and cool off before it runs again, then the motor is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Luis April 28, 2015 for Model Number MEDE300VWO Dryer has power and when I press start button will not run. The circuit to the motor is good and tech sheet says to change the dryer electronics. What part is that? Is part number AP4514565 the correct part to change?
1 Answer Hello Luis. If there is an error for the main board, you will need to order and replace part number WPW10174745 on the unit. Read More...
Joe A December 31, 2014 for Model Number MGDE300VF0 Everytime I shut the door the dryer starts to tumble. No heat or anything. While it is tumbling, I can touch the POWER button and choose my cycle and press START. then the heat starts and I can hear the door lock engage and all. The dryer works like normal and the heater will turn off when the cycle is done but the dryer will continue to tumble although all lights are off. Weird I know, perhaps a new control panel?
1 Answer Joe, This issue would most likely be caused by a control board. It sounds like the relay for the motor is stuck and causing the unit to run when door is closed. Read More...
Wantadry May 21, 2014 for Model Number FRS23KF5DW4 Dryer will work fine for several days then it will blow the thermal fuse. All duct is clean, air flow is good. The thermistor reading is correctly and I have monitored the duct temperature and all is within specifications. Why does it work some days and then fail. What part should I change? AP4514565 or 8577274 or look at something different? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Wantadry, The only thing that will cause the thermal fuse to open is excessive temperature. If the ducting is a full four inch diameter, there are no clogs or crimps, and it is not excessively long, (equivalent to 25 feet or less), the only thing it can be is a seal/seals allowing the heated air to re-enter the unit cabinet instead of exiting the appliance. I would have included some part numbers as examples but have no idea what unit you have in your home. The model number you listed was for a refrigerator. You will need to get the dryer model number from the units' I.D. tag most likely located inside the door on the front panel. Read More...
Curt July 06, 2012 for Model Number Mede300vwo Dryer was reported to not work at all, upon inspection I found dryer was not responding to any pushing of buttons. I unplugged dryer for around 30 seconds and then reconnected and everything started working. Is there a diagnosis for this scenario. If there is another problem please let me know. Thank you for your help.
1 Answer Hello Curt, It sounds like the microprocessor on the electronic control was confused. Discontinuing the power to it was enough to reset it to factory default. It sounds crazy, but it's just like when a home computer says it has to reboot to continue. The microprocessor had to reboot. Read More...
