Hooray! I think...
I found a GB instrument in the bottom of the toolbox! It is model GMT-12A. I have no idea how to use this thing. There are two wires coming from the box; on the left side - black, on the right side - red. There is a dial to select OMH (X1K), DCmA (.05, 50, 250), ACV (10, 50, 250, or 500), or DCV (10, 50, 250, or 500).
Dryer is unplugged and I've got the front panel of the cabinet removed. WOW! I couldn't believe the lint! I did a quick memory scan to make sure we've never lost a pet because I believe it could have been in the dryer under all of the lint! Nope, all pets accounted for...
After vacuuming the lint I put the black wire on a wire and the red on the other end of the wire and the needle gauge on the GB instrument rapidly moved to the other side so I assume the instrument works! I have no idea what I tested. Just wanted to see if the thing worked. Can anyone help from here and tell me where to start testing?
