Dryer will not dry on any automatic cycle. Will dry on timed cycle. On automatic cycle, dryer runs 2 to 3 minutes with sensing indicator lit them AF indicator lights. I have disconnected the vent and let the dryer vent into the room and same results. We have replaced the mother board. Same results. I have cleaned sensor bars. Same results. On timed cycle, sensing indicator lit bur will go out in3 to 5 minutes. Good airflow never lights. any suggestions? Thanks.

Scratches in Surface
This product comes in a bottle with a brush like Liquid Paper. It goes on incredibly easy. A second coat might be needed. I wanted to prevent rust from setting in so I covered the scratches and dings. The paint is a little brighter since my washer is 10 years old but it still looks great.
