Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before servicing.

Replace all parts and panels before operating.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

DRIVE MOTOR

Refer to page 4-7 for the procedure for servic- ing the drive motor.

1.Unplug dryer or disconnect power.

2.Turn off gas supply to dryer.

3.Disconnect the plug from the motor con- nector.

4.Set the ohmmeter to the R X 1 scale.

5.Touch one ohmmeter test lead to the blue motor wire connector, and the other test lead to connector pin 5 (white-orange wire).

The meter should indicate between 2.4 and 3.6 Ω (main winding).

6.Touch one ohmmeter test lead to the blue motor wire connector, and the other test lead to connector pin 3 (violet wire). The

meter should indicate between 2.4 and 3.8 Ω (start winding).

7.If either resistance is much larger than 4 Ω, replace the motor.

If the resistances at the motor are correct, check for a failed belt switch.

If the belt switch is okay, check for an open circuit between the motor and the elec- tronic control board.
