• 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 left-most
contact on the terminal block, and make
a note of it. This will be L1 (black wire)
in the wiring diagram.
• When this is found, go to step c.
• If neither of the plug terminals have
continuity with the left-most contact
of the terminal block, replace the
power cord, and test the dryer.
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
P1-5 (black wire) on the electronic con-
trol board.
• 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 P1-2
(white wire) at the control board.
• 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.
c)With an ohmmeter , check for continuity
between the neutral (N) terminal of the
plug and P1-2 (white wire) on the elec-
tronic control board.
• 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
P1-5 (black wire) on the control board.
• 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.
