TROUBLE ANALYSIS PROCEDURE

A multimeter is required for some of the following check-out procedures. Before performing any tests, make certain if the dryer power supply is 1 phase, 230 volt, or 3 phase, 230 or 460 volt.

The burner circuit is 120 volts AC on all standard U. S. production models.

The control circuit to the motor start- ers is 120 volts AC.

Problem

The safety circuit is 12 volts D. C.

When checking these circuits, mea- sure voltage between the circuit test locationandtoground.

D. C. circuits should be measured

between the test location and its re- spective D. C. ground.

Refer to wiring diagrams and the parts list for identification of parts and the electrical terminals.

CAUTION: When making high voltage tests with "live" circuits, be extremely careful. Follow established safety prac- tices.Turnpoweronfortestingonly.Do not attempt to make the dryer operate by using a jumper wire to bypass a de- fectivesafetycomponent.

Possible Cause

Control power switch light off.

1.Check that main power and circuit breakers are turned on. Check for tripped breaker.

2.Check for blown 5 amp fuses.

3.Monitor relay is defective.

4.Defective transformer or wiring.

5.Check for a defective power switch.

6.Check wiring between fuses and input/output board. Refer to wiring diagram for test locations.

auger, fan, heater, unload auger will not operate.

1.Press the dryer power start button.

2.Refer to the problem listed for load auger, fan heater and unload auger in the following sections.

Display shows "L1 VOLTAGE LOST" message.

The left circuit breaker located on the input/output board of the Electronic Monitoring Control System has tripped, or one of the hardware timers on the Electronic Monitoring Control System has shut down the dryer.

Display shows "12 VOLT POWER SUPPLY WARNING"

message.

The right circuit breaker located on the input/output board of the Electronic Monitoring Control System has tripped.
