Main Door Switch, Sail Switch Gas Models Only | ADC ML-175, ML-190

Main Door Switch

The main door switch is located near the main door hinge. When the main door opens, the switch will also open, preventing the dryer from operating. The main door switch is a safety device and should never be disabled.

Sail Switch (Gas Models Only)

The sail switch is located on the front of the burner box. A sail switch consists of a round damper plate on a lever arm, which is in contact with an electric switch. When the fan/ blower comes on, it draws air through the burner box. This creates a negative pressure inside the burner box, and this negative pressure pulls in the round damper and activates the sail switch.

Burner Hi-Limit (Gas Models Only)

A burner hi-limit thermostat is located on the burner. This is

amanual reset disc-type thermostat set at 330° F (165° C). If the flame in the burner should get too hot, this thermostat will shut off the burner. This is generally caused by low airflow through the dryer.

Tumbler Hi-Limit

This is located in the lint compartment above the lint drawer. This bracket consists of two devices. One is a temperature sensor probe and the other is a hi-limit thermostat, which is set at 225° F (107° C).
