Charles, Have you dismantled the duct work on the heater assembly, and checked for any clogs , debris or lint built up in the duct work ? " [FONT=Arial][SIZE=3][FONT=Arial][SIZE=3]diassemble the cabinet cover and condensing bellows. Is there any foreign object in condensing bellows. [FONT=Arial][SIZE=3][FONT=Arial][SIZE=3]Disassemble the dry fan assy and dryer duct upper, and clean foreign object in duct and fan."

[FONT=ArialMT][SIZE=3][FONT=ArialMT][SIZE=3]Is the resistance of the two(2) thermistors on the condensing duct and dry duct 2.5kΩ ~ 180kΩ (at room temp. 75 to 80 dgrs.F.) If all checks are proper, you’ll need a new control board.[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=‘Times New Roman’,‘serif’][COLOR=#000000]OK, it seems lint was trapped in the fan causing it not to spin and lock out the machine. So what I did was took the 4 screws (Phillips) off the back removing the lid, took apart the fan housing 4-6 screws (Phillips) tried to turn the shaft and it was stuff by some lint, so I cleaned and put everything back in reverse and now it works. So hope this helps anybody have the same problem.[/COLOR][/FONT][FONT=‘Times New Roman’,‘serif’][/FONT]
Charles,
Great job.
Thanks for the update/report. It will come in handy for future reference, for all of us.
Thanks Again,
Joe - I too am getting this DHE error (WM3677HW machine) I tested the element which registered 11.5 and checked continuity in thermostat. But when checking the three thermistors (two on rear duct and one at the front boot) I got no reading at all. Does this mean I need to change all three?
