DRIVE MOTOR
Refer to page
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
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.
