Here are your parts. Note they are for an AW machine. Could not find an EW unit, please check. Model LEA60AWHere is a service manual. Wiring diagram on Page 11-6. http://www.servicematters.com/m...ary/docs/RS3200005R2.pdfFrom your post I am assuming the motor runs OK you just loose the heat. Could be and air flow problem. Usually this is a vent problem. Undo the dryer from the exhaust Run a load If the load dries correctly then you have a vent problem. Clean/check the vent system. Make sure the outside louvers open fully. If you do not want lint in the house. Take a pair of pantyhose, put one leg into the other and attach this to the dryer exhaust. Leave enough room behind the dryer so it can blow out like a windsock. Run a load. Both the above will allow you to check the air flow and temp. Also the above is NOT recommended for a gas dryer due to possible carbon monoxide problems. Also air flow can be affected by: Loose/dirty blower wheel. Clean and check. Lint filter coated with fabric softener residue. Clean with soap and water. Poor tub seal felts. Could also be you have a loose connection somewhere in the heater circuit that is opening once heated up. |
