I have a Kemore Electric front loading dryer. It will not start at all. I have checked the breakers and they are not tripped. It is as if the dryer is not plugged in at all!!!! When I push start, absolutely nothing happens. Please help before my wife goes out and buys a new set!!!!!!!!!!

On some units the thermal fuse is before the light in the wiring so unit will look dead.
Could be that the thermal fuse on the blower wheel (Item 7 in Section 3) has blown.
Unplug the unit and check the fuse with a meter should be 0 ohms.
Jiggery Pokery method is.
Unplug the unit.
Remove both wires from the fuse, short them together and tape them up so they will not short to the frame.
Plug the unit in and give it a try.
If blown, replace the fuse ASAP as it is a critical safety device re: prevents lint fires which can turn into house fires.
Also clean/check your vent system and the blower as these are the most common causes of it blowing. |
