| Questions welcome. If the light illuminates, it means the wiring to the sensor block and logic of the control is supposed to be ok (but not necessarily). If the light doesn't illuminate, then either the control is bad or one of the blue wires is broken or not connected at the control. The latter is the really useful angle for the test, because if you get the light and the drum is full of wet clothes, but the control hits cool down after only 5 minutes, then obviously the logic is flawed, so control replacement is emminent. There is no way to repair the programming, since we have no way of connecting to the control chip, and we don't have a "good copy" of the program. There is nothing wrong with using the timed dry cycle permanently. The whole point of the electronic dry cycle is to have the dryer run only long enough to dry the clothes. If you use a timed cycle, you're basically guessing at how long it will take, and if you guess wrong, you just have to run it again or you've wasted unknown amounts of energy. |
