My dryer won't heat up replaced thermal fuse and high limit thermostat heat coils have around 20 ohms resistance still not heating what else could it be
For model number AES28AWF
Hello Stacey, thank you for your question. We have researched your model and found that the issue is probably with the M Series New Style Coil Kit, part number PS334310. If that does not take care of the issue, then the problem is most likely to be related to the Igniter, part number PS11741932. If you require assistance to place an order, please contact customer service. We hope that helps!
When turning on timer sometimes causes breaker to kick out. Is it just a weak breaker or faulty timer?
For model number AES28AWF
Hello and thank you for writing.
It could be both, but it is more likekly to be a faulty timer, however it also could be another short somewhere in your unit such as faulty or loose coils PS334310. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime if you require further assistance.
PartSelect showed seven different possibilities why the dryer wouldn't heat. I removed the two screws to remove the bottom panel and turned the dryer on and noticed that the heating element that ignites the gas was working fine. This meant that it was not getting gas so it could be the gas valve or one of the two gas valve coils which are located on top of the gas valve. I borrowed my neighbor"s ohm meter and touched the two probes on the coils terminals to check for continuity and found that one of the coils read zero. I then took both of the coils out by removing two screws and tested each coil again. One coil read 500-850 and the other read zero. This meant that it was no good so I called for the part and received it in three days. I reassembled the parts and turned the dryer on and it fired up after a few seconds. It works as good as new. The part plus shipping was less than $30. My repairman would have charged me $150-$200. While the dryer was apart I gave it a good cleaning with a vacuum and a toothbrush in delicate areas. I also removed and cleaned the lint trap housing by removing two nuts. I didn't know much about gas dryers, but thanks to PartSelect I easily fixed it myself.
There was no problem with lint build-up within the dryer & the exhaust vent. I removed the gas cycling thermostat & thermal fuse from system & dryer still was not operating correctly. The radiant sensor & hi-limit thermostat both seemed to be operating correctly. That left either of the two coils as the culprits. I replaced both coils & the problem was corrected.
Timer wasn't working on the regular cycle so I replace it with a new one from partselect. It still wasn't working so I ordered and replace the cycling thermostat, the thermal fuse I also cleaned the vent and dryer it still didn't work so I read the diagram for the electrical and found that a coil for the gas valve is line with timer. I ordered the coils for the valves, replaced both valves and tested the dryer and it work just like when I first bought the appliance.
