Hello Scott, thank you for writing. The most common reason for a dryer that gets hot even when it's not in use is a grounded heating element. We suggest replacing the Element, PartSelect Number PS11757514. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. Good luck with your repair.

Drum revolves normally but heater quit a few days ago. Have 220 at the plug. Getting 120 to chassis ground on both heater terminals, the purple wire from thermostat on heater to the three terminal thermostat on duct, and 120 to ground on the the yellow wire on that thermostat, but no voltage on the orange wire. Get zero voltage across the heater element (which measures 11 ohms). Both thermostats are zero ohms (closed.) What could be wrong? Where can I find the wiring diagram? Thanks --Rich

Hi Richard, thank you for your question! We would recommend checking the dryer timer, part number PS11740669. Test the timer by using a multimeter. If the timer is defective, replace it. We hope this helps.
Does the cycling thermostat on this model take three wires or two? 304475 part number. Mine is in bad shape, but I’m hoping it was supposed to take purple, yellow and orange.

Hi Bruce, thank you for reaching out. The cycling thermostat, part number PS11757518, that you provided takes 3 wires. We have attached a relevant video which may not be of the exact model but will help with the connection. We hope this information helps!

Hello Barry, the Try replacing the High limit switch part PS11740647. When the temperature within the dryer gets hot, it trips. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you.
first, I unplug the power supply of the dryer then I removed the two screws at the bottom of the dryer then pulled out the front part of the dryer,unplugged the blue & yellow wire for the on/off switch for the door,at the back of the dryer I unscrew the pannel for the belt,disconect the belt,and I unscrew the four screws on both side of the front pannel to remove the front cover of the drum. Once I removed the front cover of the drum I can now remove the drum itself to access the drum support roller. I unscrew the rollers then replace it with the new once. It was an easy job. Thank you.
Removed the front cover (screws on bottom 0f face)...removed blower cover....spring pliers to remove and install blower fan. the rest of the time was spent cleaning the inside of the shell as well as the vent. Reassembled and dryer runs better than it has for many years.
Unplugged dryer. Front came off easily. Removed front of blower. Wheel came off fairly easily - could then see that shaft of motor was circular with flattened side but inside of old wheel was rounded. New wheel popped right on. Took tumbler off so I could clean lint out more easily and get a good view of how the belt threaded through. Put the tumbler back on and reached back with both hands to thread it. Took a half dozen tries until I was sure it was seated correctly and not twisted. Put front... of dryer back on. So far (a week or so) the rumble is gone. Seems blower wheel was the cause of the rumble. Belt didn't seem worn but replaced anyhow.
