Linda E. April 18, 2019 for Model Number WED9200SQ1 When we put the dryer on a normal 40 minute cycle after it had run for 23 minutes we checked the clothes they were dry and hot to the touch. The timer still had 17 minutes left on the readout. Why did the dryer not shut off? What could cause it to still keep drying the clothes when it should be sensing the clothes are dry?
1 Answer Hello Linda, When the unit is placed on a timed dry cycle it does not use the sensor bars so it will run until the time is up. This is normal operation. If the unit dies this on an automatic cycle you will need to use a cotton cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol to clean the residue from them that is accumulated from the use of softener sheets. You should also use the rubbing alcohol on the lint screen so it can pass moisture instead of repelling it. Read More...
Dave March 30, 2019 My dryer works but after a while it just turns off like it is overheating. What would be the problem?
1 Answer Hello Dave, I'm sorry but we will need to ask you to post a new question including the model number from your units' I.D. tag so we can provide a proper diagnosis and recommend parts that can be guaranteed to work properly on your unit.

Joe C December 12, 2018 for Model Number MED3000BW0 We have a 5 year Maytag Gas Dryer (MED3000BW0) and have noticed the "Check Vent" light comes on with automatic settings but not on manual setting. The vent has been cleaned out from end to end, so a blockage is not the likely cause. Any thoughts? Thanks!
1 Answer Joe, With the check vent light coming on check the blower wheel to ensure that the blower wheel is not damaged and no clogs in it. If this checks ok then the issue will most likely be with the control board of the unit. Read More...
Jay November 07, 2018 for Model Number GEW9868KQ2 Trying to replace thermistor # AP6013514 The video shows a duet dryer and mine is a whirlpool with the tilt down door. How do I take the front off to get the old thermistor?
1 Answer Jay, to remove the front panel, use a putty knife and there should be a clip located on both sides of the front panel, in between the front panel and the door. It will fold down and then you should be able to access the thermister on top of the blower housing. You should be able to use a small 1/4 inch socket to remove the nuts on the thermistor.

Stephen Clark July 02, 2018 for Model Number Whirlpool Duet Dryer Model WED9400STO My 9 yrs old Whirlpool Duet Dryer Model WED9400STO stopped heating. I discovered that the heater element was broken. I replaced the heater element, thermal cut-off, Inlet Thermistor/High Limit Thermostat Assembly, Thermal fuse, and Outlet Thermistor. After a thorough cleaning, I power the unit on and everything appears to be working fine, including heating. After a short time the unit now cuts off displaying a F22 code. This code has never appeared before. Since the Outlet Thermistor is new and reads 12.43 Kohms, any idea as to the problem and a possible solution approach? Thanks,
1 Answer Stephen, the error code F-22 is an outlet thermistor open error code. make make sure the wiring is correct. If the resistance is correct then you would need to replace the main control. WPW10110641 Read More...
Nick K February 20, 2018 for Model Number WED70HEBW0 Power to dryer fine and control panel lights up. When I turn to run with any cycle all I get is "click" like a circuit opening. Replaced circuit board, thermal fuse and dryer thermistor. No difference, still clicks but will not run.
1 Answer Nick, This issue would most likely be caused by a faulty main control board WPW10542001. Read More...
Brad January 05, 2018 for Model Number 11085872400 How do you test the thermistor, my multi meter shows no continuity across the terminals. thanks
1 Answer Brad, You will need to test the thermistor for resistance and it should read 10K ohms of resistance at 77 degrees. Read More...
Bob N October 01, 2017 for Model Number Ggw9250pwg The dryer shut down. No display,no codes. The next day the dryer display came back, the dryer started normally. It shut down again, same symptoms, but no recovery. So with no display or codes, what do I have?
1 Answer Hello Bob, you'll want to make sure your door switch WP8283288 is testing good when the switch isn't being pressed and when it is. You'll also want to test the broken belt switch part number 279782. Hope this helps! Read More...
Ed Call September 20, 2017 for Model Number WED9450WW0 WHEN I TURN THE DRYER ON IT WILL NOT RUN. I GET THE WORD " SENSING" ONTHE DIAL. WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE?
1 Answer Hello Ed, you'll want to look at part number thermal fuse part number WP3392519. To access the thermal fuse, pull the lower access panel off, behind blower duct is a long white piece with 2 light blue wires on it. That's your thermal fuse. If you have a multimeter test for continuity or no resistance. If your meter says oL or inf that's your problem. Hope this helps! Read More...
