c)With an ohmmeter, check for continuity between the neutral (N) terminal of the plug and
•If there is continuity, go to step d.
•If there is no continuity, disconnect the white wire of the harness from the power cord at the location shown in step 3b. Test the continuity of the power cord neutral wire as shown below. If an open circuit is found, re- place the power cord.
•Otherwise, proceed to step d.

d)In a similar way, check the continuity be- tween the L1 terminal of the plug and
•If there is continuity, replace the con- trol board.
•If there is no continuity, check the continuity of the power cord for the L1 wire.
•If an open circuit is found, replace the power cord.
•Otherwise, proceed to step e. e)Replace the main wire harness.
4.Electric Dryers Only:
a)With an ohmmeter, check for continuity between the neutral (N) terminal of the plug and the center contact on the ter- minal block.

•If there is no continuity, replace the power cord and test the dryer.
•If there is continuity, go to step b.
b)In a similar way, check which terminal of the plug is connected to the
•When this is found, go to step c.
•If neither of the plug terminals have continuity with the
c)Access the electronic control board without disconnecting any wiring to the control board.
d)With an ohmmeter, check for continuity between the L1 terminal of the plug and
•If there is continuity, go to step e.
•If there is no continuity, check that wires to the terminal block are me- chanically secure. If so, replace the main wire harness, and test the dryer.
e)Check for continuity between the neu- tral (N) terminal of the plug and
•If there is continuity, go to step f.
•If there is no continuity and the me- chanical connections of the wire are secure, replace the main wire har- ness.
f)If the dryer still does not operate, re- place the electronic control board.
