Whirlpool MED / GD 9600S manual Checking The Rotary Cycle Selector, Test #6 Door Switch Test

Checking The Rotary Cycle Selector

Using the following table, check the resistance at each cycle setting.

•When using a digital meter, touch the “+” ohmmeter test lead to P1-14, and leave it there during the tests. Touch the other test lead to the test points indi- cated in the chart.

•When using an analog meter, touch the “–” ohmmeter test lead to P1-14, and leave it there during the tests. Touch the other test lead to the test points indi- cated in the chart.

TEST #6: DOOR SWITCH TEST

Go into the Diagnostic Test mode on page 6-2. The door switch function is verified with a beep each time the door is opened and closed, and an alpha numeric code appears in the display (“0E”, “0g”, “1E”, or “2E”).

•If any of the conditions are not met, or if one of the dryer model codes listed above is displayed when the door is closed, check that the wires between the door switch and the electronic con- trol board are properly connected.

•If the connections are okay, replace the door switch assembly and its wiring, and retest.

•If the door switch assembly and wiring have been replaced and dryer still does not start, replace the electronic control board.
