I am able to successfully reset the unit to its normal operating condition. I have also replaced the heating element and the thermistor. The thermistor was a used part and I would like to know how to test it. If the heating element is new and the thermistor is working, what do I test next. If the only other culprit is the control board, how do I test it? Thank you.

The tech sheet shows the expected resistance for the thermistor. If all OK check from the white wire on the door switch to P6 on the control board with the switch closed. This then is the heater circuit except the control board so if it is OK then the control board is bad. File Attachment(s): DU1048.pdf (162kb) downloaded 7 time(s).

I have read the tech sheet a few times and I am at a loss as to where the Ohm reading for a properly working thermistor is.... also, the hi-limit thermostat? You are not referring to the fuze in the control panel are you? I am new to this type of repair so I appreciate your patience with me. JB

Clipped underneath the tub. FYI: If the thermal fuse was blown it would kill power to the control board.
