This may help https://secured.whirlpoo...520548/$FILE/8178022.pdfOnly a couple things: 1. Did you remove the fuse from the unit when you measured it? Also did you remove one wire from the switch? Please do not take offence but many people do not do this and they measure an alternate/parallel circuit path and it really confuses things. 2. Did you measure voltage at/on the board. A couple months ago I had a number of units where the wire nut connections were no good. If you get power to the board and it does not fire up then the only thing I can think of is that the board is toast. |

Denman,
Thanks again for the help. I did everything you said I should do. Now I need to make sure I am getting power to the board. Where should I place my voltmeter on the board to measure power to the board and what voltage should I be seeing?
Once again...thank you much.

I cannot make out the actual pin locations on the diagram but they are the W wire (lower right on the board in the diagram) as a common and then the line from the fuse and from the switch (switch closed) (both at top of board in the diagram). Both should give 120 volts |
