Overview

General

The GE Profile Harmony Dryer is part of the GE Profile Harmony Clothes Care System utilizing the latest developments in dryer technology .

Most conventional drying systems have a single motor that powers both the blower and the drum. Therefore, the blower fan and dryer drum are powered at the same rate of speed. If air flow is impeded by lint buildup or lengthy venting, the dryer cannot increase the fan speed without increasing the drum speed. The Harmony Dryer System utilizes dual motors and strategically placed sensors. This enables the dryer to respond quickly to temperature changes and ensure proper air flow to optimize drying effectiveness.

Other features include:

Communication Link to the Washer- The dryer uses a serial cable to automatically receive information from the washer about the nature of the wash load, essentially presetting the dryer controls so the user doesn’t have to.

Dual Motors - The dryer is equipped with dual motors one dedicated to the drum, the other to the blower fan. The addition of a dedicated blower motor enables the dryer to alter fan speed whenever necessary to optimize air flow. This capability greatly increases drying performance and efficiency. (See

and Blower Motor).

Drive Motor

V ariable Heater - The dryer's heater is capable of variable heat output. It s voltage regulation feature allows the system to be rated at 6000 watts.

Dual Thermistors - Thermistors are much more sensitive to temperature changes and can relay the information faster than thermostats. The dryer uses dual thermistors to monitor incoming air temperature as well as the air temperature leaving the drum. The sensors work together with the variable heater and blower to provide consistent even heat. (See

Inlet Thermistor.)

Moisture Sensor - The moisture sensor allows the control to monitor the fabric for moisture content and end the cycle at the desired moisture level. (See

Moisture Sensor.)

Plastic Top & Backsplash - The dryer top and backsplash have UV stabilizers to prevent yellowing when exposed to sunlight.

Jumper Configurations

Jumper Plug

Note: The gas dryer main board differs from the electric dryer main board by the addition of a jumper plug on the model selector connector (the electric model has no jumper plug). Depending on how the pins have been jumped will determine what type of gas (natural or LP) the dryer is using.

The LP conversion kit is part number WE25X10014 and consists of the LP model selector and an LP orifice for the gas valve.

The dryer control performs three checks to determine whether the dryer is an electric, LP gas or natural gas.

• Initially , the control looks for a flame sensor. If the flame sensor is detected, the control then looks for a model selector set for natural or LP gas.

• If both conditions are satisfied, the dryer will start.

• The dryer control then monitors temperature based on specific software parameters for each type of gas. If the temperature is outside of that range, an error is displayed on the LCD display and the dryer will shut down. (See

Error Chart Gas Setup Failed).

• The inverter receives 120 V AC at the red 3-pin connector CN10. The voltage first passes through an RF choke. The RF choke filters the line voltage and is replaced as an assembly. If 120 V AC is not present, check the wall outlet, power cord, and RF choke.

• When 120 V AC is present at CN10, there should be 5 VDC between pin 3 (white wire) and pin 7 (blue wire) on the white connector CN1 1. (This voltage is used to keep the membrane and LCD display in standby, waiting for a key-press.)

The beeper is mounted on the inverter, but controlled by the main control board.

• The beeper uses the same 12 VDC supply as the LCD backlight.

• To check the 12 VDC circuit, measure between pin 3 (white wire) on white connector CN1 1 and pin 8 (pink wire) on the blue connector CN14. (See

Ignitor and Flame Detector

Moisture Sensor

• When the electronic control calls for heat, 120 V AC is supplied to the ignitor .

• The flame detector, which is in series with the ignitor, is closed.

• When the ignitor reaches a high enough temperature, the flame detector opens.

• The electronic control senses the opening of the detector and energizes the gas valves.

Testing the Ignitor and Flame Detector Circuit

1. Place the dryer in Factory Test Mode: a. Press HOME, then HELP. b. Press and hold the HELP and START/

STOP pads simultaneously for 3 seconds.

2. Press START/STOP to begin the test.

• The FLAME SENSOR test will display

whether the detector is open or closed.

The moisture-sensing circuit consists of two sensor rods mounted in the drum front beneath the lint filter opening.

• The sensor rods are connected to the main control board. The rods are spaced about ½ in. apart, which creates an open circuit to the control.

• The control board utilizes a low-voltage capacitor that charges to approximately 5 VDC when the circuit is open and discharges to less than 1 VDC when the circuit is shorted.

• When wet clothes tumble across the two rods, the clothes create a very low resistance between the rods, which discharges the capacitor.

• As the clothes become dry, their resistance value increases and the charge across the capacitor builds to approximately 5 VDC.

• In the OFF position, the flame detector is closed (room temperature/low heat).

ON position, the flame detector is open (hot).

In the

Sensor Rods

Note: Proper leveling of the dryer is vital for accurate sensor drying. Excessive rearward adjustment will cause clothes to tumble toward the rear of the drum, preventing contact with the senor rods, thus producing a false dryness reading.

Testing the Moisture Sensor Circuit

1. Place the dryer in Factory Test Mode: a. Press HOME, then HELP. b. Press and hold the HELP and START/

STOP pads simultaneously for 3 seconds.

A dry sensor rod circuit should display a voltage of

4.75 V AC or higher under MOISTURE(S) test.

2. Wet a cloth and place it across the sensor

rods. The display voltage should drop to

1.0 VAC or less if the circuit is working correctly.
