I have a Whirlpool senseon GEX9868jQ0 dryer that will not come on. I bought it used and initially the "Normal" and "Heavy Duty" buttons did not light and the settings did not work. All other settings worked fine for a month or so. Then it would not come on one day. At one point all the LEDs on the pannel would light and I did get it to come on one more time. Now no LEDs light, no sounds are heard. The interior light works. I do have 220v to the unit, I have performed the checks of the board and touch pad outlined in the Tech Sheet found in the unit. I have 3VDC+ at each location tested on the board (as listed in the sheet) I also have acceptable function of the touch pad buttons as outlined. Is there any other sensor, fuse, component other than the control board that will keep it in a "No Power" situation? I don't want to spend $150 on a board if it is some bad sensor or switch problem. Thanks in advance for any help. Greg

There is a limit fuse on the vent tube tube on the inside of unit. It is non resetable. Disconnect one lead and check for continuity. If non, it is bad and will have to be replaced. You could jumper it temp. to see if that is where the problem is.
