I have trouble with the dryer not starting. This has been going on for about a year. I had a service man out to confirm what i thought the problem was. He also thought the control board.We have tried a few gimmicks and the dryer continued working. Now is the time to fix it. My problem is i don't know how to get to the control module. Do i need to take the back then the top off or what is the procedure. Any help is appreciated

It's a pretty easy job. Take the cover off by removing the screws in the back.

Here is the service manual which will guide you through it.

Good luck, let us know how it turns out, and if a new control board does not fix it post a detailed description of the problem and let's see what else we can come up with.

Oops

Ok, this would probably work a lot better if I were to post the dryer manual and not the washer one.

Sorry, it's been a long day. Hope this helps (well it will help more than the washer manual)

I replaced the control board. It seems to be working better but it is still not right. If i leave power to the dryer on for a while i have to turn off or unplug the dryer then plug it back in and then it will work fine. If the power is left on i can see all the lights on the console board seem to be faintly lit and the dryer will not start until i unplug it. I think we had a lightning strike close by a year ago and that is when it started having problems I now have it plugged in to a surge protector.

Well, sorry that did not fix it.

A lightening strike causes all sorts of problems because of the current that is induced in wiring. A strike near our house last month induced current in the TV cable which fried a DVD player. Go figure!

I would start by thorughtly examining the wiring, and if nothing is found replacing the power cord, not likely a problem but an inexpensive thing to rule out. After that you may be looking at replacing the wiring harness, but that is purely speculative.

Sorry I cannot be more helpful, but lightening and appliances just do not do well together.

Let us know if you find a solution, or need some more ideas.
