Continued to dink with it and problem got worse. Finally got to the point that it would only stop if I opened the door. I could push the off button and all the lights would go off, but the dryer would not stop running. Repairman came out and said it was the control board. I ordered one and replaced it. Now when I do diagnostics, I get an E3 error. All of the buttons light up on the front panel, but when I rotate the main dial for cycle type selection, it beeps extremely loudly and various lights go on and off on all parts of the front panel. Is it possible that the power surge effected both the control electronics and the machine control board?


Gastover,

Which part did you install ?

And are you sure you installed it properly.

I would not be surprised, if you need both parts, after a voltage spike.

Based on your description you should or do need the control panel board.
