Hi. We have a Samsung electric dryer, model # DV511AEEXAA, approximately 7-8 years old. One day it quit working in the middle of the cycle. We hit the power button and there were no lights on the power console. Went to the house circuit breaker box to check to see if it was tripped and it was not. Cycled 2 or 3 times and went back inside. Still no power. Checked for power at the outlet. Checked good...well over 220 volts. Checked power connections on the machine. Connections were good and power was good to the machine. We did some research and suspected a thermal fuse. We disassembled the machine and checked both blower thermal fuse and the heater thermal fuse. Both had continuity and checked good. Checked the thermistor and it had 9.12 ohms. Checked the high limit thermostat and it had continuity at room temperature. We ordered a new main computer control board. Installed it. It worked. We did one load and then it didn't work. No power again. Back at square 1.
