Here are your parts includes a wiring diagram.
Replacement parts for ADMIRAL ADE9005AGW | AppliancePartsPros.com If you just looked at the breaker try flipping it off/on slowly a couple times. Sometimes you can loose half the line without actually tripping the breaker. Better yet measure it with a meter. L1 to L2 should be 240 volts L1 to Neutral and L2 to Neutral should both be 120 volts. Next check the door switch to make sure it is being activated. Better yet check it with a meter. Next check the thermal fuse Item 6 in section 1 "Base" with a meter should be 0 ohms. The jiggery pokery method is: Unplug the unit. Short the wires together Tape them up so they cannot short to the frame. Plug it in and try it. If it runs replace the fuse ASAP as it is a critical safety device. Note you can also use the same method for the door switch. If the fuse is blown the most common cause is low air flow. Clean the interior of the unit including the blower wheel. Also clean and check your vent system. If you do not own a meter, I would suggest you purchase a one. You can get a decent digital multimeter for under $20.00. You do not need fancy though it is nice if the leads are a couple feet long. If it saves ordering one unnecessary part it has paid for itself and you end up owning a useful tool. Most places will not let you return electrical parts so if you order it, you own it. A couple things to watch when measuring ohms and continuity 1. Always remove power from the machine otherwise you could blow your meter. 2. Always disconnect at least one side of any device you are checking. This eliminates the possibility of measuring an alternate/parallel circuit path. 3. When checking for closed contacts and continuity use the lowest scale (Usually 200 ohms). Then try higher scales. This scale is 0 to 200 ohms so if the device you are measuring is 300 ohms this scale would show an open circuit which it is not, you are just measuring outside the scale's dynamic range. There is a good STICKY at the start of this forum about it's use.
