Today, dryer was working by my wife - she had to use 3 times full cycle continuously without any stop/break before it start to NOT work.
Yes, now it is NOT working at this time.
About a month ago, 4.5 years used Never troubled dryer suddenly starting to not working.
Not working means;
- Power On like normal
- No Error Code like normal
- No Wired Sound like normal
- I can hear the heating started
- I kinda hear the motor is starting or started but the drum does not spin.
Yes, Dryer just does NOT spin when we press "Start" button
So, I opened up the dryer after I found so many helpful infos like this site, youtube videos.
I was expecting some issues with the belt(since it was just not spinning), Thermal Fuse or Dryer Thermistor since these are most common.
Both Thermal Fuse and Dryer Thermistor seems fine with multimeter testing.
In fact, I could also see that Idler Assembly seems a bit worn out on wheel part and a bit looks like off the track.
Since I already opened and realize I need to open all the ways for these parts, I decided to replace these
two parts(Thermistor and Wheels(Only) on Idler Assembly. In addition, I did clean a lot inside/outside of dryer
to remove those accumulated lint particle dust everywhere where my hands could clean...
After closing, the dryer was exactly same - does not spin. (So far this was whole weekends to open, clean wait for parts...)
Fortunately, my wife made it work by continuous soft restart(switch on&off) and pull lint filter several times.
So, it was working back. Past month, there were several down times but my wife managed it somehow during her trial luck of power on/off.
Last weekends, it stop working again. This time, I replaced the "temperature/moisture Sensor"
- one time the dryer was working back after my wife cleaned this.
I wish this part is the main problem caused part. But, it was NOT and still same - not working.
My dryer was not working since last Friday to all over weekends.
Since the labor day holiday weekends is coming I had to set the plan - buy more parts and make it work or need to buy a new pair.
(BTW, our pairing washer is also a problem right after 1 year of use - mainly too much waving and jumping. But still working...)
But today afternoon, my wife made it work during her power on/off cycle. She used it for full 3 cycling.
Again, it is not working now. Any suggestion or guide to repair this? I could not find the exactly same symptoms and problems.
Based on my research, I like to check, might need to replace
-Thermal Fuse (Part#DC47-00016A)
-Belt Switch (Part#3405-001077) => Any way to test?
-Main Control Board (Part#DC92-00257A) => Any way to test?
-More Thermistor/THERMOSTAT/Thermal Fuse(?) near gas burner section.
I need all your possible guides and helps to make my dryer working back.
