Hi -

The dryer won't start. The front panel indications appear fine. It seemed to finish its last load fine. After pressing start there's a sort of low hum and no action, no error codes. I took the lower panel off and found the very brief "dryer tech data sheet" for 84082/94082. In this it directs to turn the control knob to the "3 oclock position". What is this? Not to be too stupid about it but there are no indicators to show where any clock position might be. The knob is smooth.

I've seen other posts about a similar issue and the owner was able to find something impeding the movement of the drum. Mine appears to rotate ok, seems a little sluggish but doesn't seem to be totally impaired. There's a note in the user guide that says a thermal trip might have been invoked and to call service.

Any ideas? I could not find a service manual on line. I do have a multimeter and know how to use it.

Thanks,
Keith

Thanks.

I put the dial to "touch up", did the hold for 6 sec (where the digital display shows rES) then the hold for 4 sec then tried turning the dial clockwise and counterclockwise. Either way, the display goes to timers (e.g. 20, 15, 40, etc.) but no error codes.

I'll take a look around for the manual. I had taken the dryer apart and cleaned it out, manually rotated the drum and checked for obstructions (found none) and it seems to be working ok again.

Thanks again.
Keith
