Sowers Sowers you are not giving us all the information with tested all the usual stuff. Start with this and let us know what you get when you test those.

1. Heater. See TEST #4.

2. Check harness connections.

3. Check installation.

Of course you can run the heater/motor diagnostics test first to see what it displays first.

DIAGNOSTIC TESTS

These tests allow factory or service personnel to test and verify all inputs to the machine control electronics. You may want to do a quick and overall checkup of the dryer with these tests before going to specific troubleshooting tests.

ACTIVATING THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE

1. Be sure the dryer is in standby mode (plugged in with all indicators off, or with only the Clothes Dry indicator on).

2. Select any one button (except Stop) and follow the steps below, using the same button (remember the button):

Press/hold 2-5 seconds ➔ Release for 2-5 seconds ➔ Press/hold 2-5 seconds ➔ Release for 2-5 seconds ➔ Press/hold 2-5 seconds

DIAGNOSTIC: Motor, Heater, and Console ID

Close the door. Press the Start button. The motor and heater will turn on, and the display will show one of the following console IDs:A0,A2,A4,A5,A6,A7,A8,A9.AA,AC or AD. If none of the Console IDs listed above are displayed, replace the user interface assembly.

➔ If the motor does not turn on, go to TEST #3a, page 4.

➔ If no heat is detected, go to TEST #4, page 6.

DEACTIVATING THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE

Press the Stop button twice to exit diagnostics.

Here are the tests #4 for the heater components for your dryer
