Dryer shouts off in about 10 sec. Or so. I changed out the high limit thermal fuse but still shuts off the same.
Thanks,

Hello Larry, thank you for contacting us. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest checking the drive motor, part number PS11739459, to solve the problem. We hope that helps!
Dryer comes on and stays on for 20 seconds, shuts off and then resets and lights blink 2 times. I can then push the knob and it then starts and runs for 20 seconds. I'm wondering what kind of part this may need. Thanks for your help.

Hello Stephanie, thank you for getting in touch. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest checking the door switch for malfunctioning first. If it is working fine, then you may need to check the control board, part number PS10064571, to solve the problem. We hope this helps!
Control board won't light up, so the unit won't start. The light inside the dryer works and turns off if you push the door switch.

Hi Mark,
Thank you for your question. If the electronic control board, part number PS10064571, does not light up and the dryer will not start, it will need to be replaced. We hope this helps!
Dryer may luckily start, works for a full cycle, but randomly when trying to start it up again, the lights come on and can easily make selection- it's lit and says drying, but nothing happening just slight click but does not turn on. After 20-30 minutes it will randomly start working again??

Hello Krista, thank you for contacting us. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend checking the control board, part number PS10064571, to solve the problem. A malfunctioning control board can most probably cause this issue. We hope this helps.
The first thing I did was to unplug the dryer from the wall. Then I removed the bottom two screws and slid the bottom cover off so i could see all the way to the back, I tipped the dryer back against the wall and searched for the problem with a flashlight. I noticed that one of the guide wheels that held the drum in place was sheared off. I took the new drum support roller out and carefully slid it over the shaft, I had to jiggle it around for a bit, but then it finally was seated correctly. I replaced the washer and then the clip using a pair of needle nose pliers and a regular screw driver and then turned the dryer by hand to see if the wheel came off. After confirming that it worked, I put the cover back on, and plugged it in and tested it.
I pulled the bottom panel and the door panel to replace the manifold and felt gasket around the drum. I removed old gasket very easily, it peeled right off. I use brake cleaning fluid (Spray Can from Auto Zone about $1.45) to remove old glue. Used spray contact cement (Elmer's about 4.50 at Ace) and sprayed the panel and gasket surfaces and let dry. I then applied a 2nd coat and let get "tacky" and installed the gasket. You will need an extra set of hands to hold the gasket in place while you stretch it over the the panel. The vent manifold is held in place with 3 phillips screws and was installed in about 10 minutes. The only gripe I had was in the Parts-Select illustrated breakdown they don't tell you the lint screen comes with the manifold assembly, so I bought one of them too. Now have an extra lint screen
Wasn't the belt!! Changed it anyway. Should have come here earlier. That mistake added several days to the repair waiting for a second batch of the right parts. Became a pro at taking the dryer apart and reassembling, though! Easy job, just take your time and mark your wires, if you need to. Followed other people's excellent instructions. Clean out all the dust bunnies. Schematics were a great resource. Those and the prices made me a repeat customer. The shaft of the Idler Lever wheel was the cause, but decided, since I had it apart, to spend a little more money and replace both Drum Support Rollers and the Roller Bracket and Shaft Assembly. They showed some wear, and the parts were very inexpensive. Make sure you have snap ring pliers with prongs that are smaller than the standard 0.40 to save some aggravation with the Drum Rollers. $5 tool. Total parts were less than $60. Probably saved $150+ in labor. Quieter than ever now. Thanks!
