Important Safety Information
!WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death to persons when using your washer, follow these basic precautions:
•Read all instructions before using the dryer.
•Refer to the Grounding Instructions in the Installation Manual for the proper grounding of the washer.
•Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
•Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the dryer. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
•Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is used near children. This is a safety rule for all appliances.
•Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.
•Do not reach into the dryer if the drying tumbler is moving.
•Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.
•Do not tamper with the controls.
•Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer, or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the User-Maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
•To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, do not use an extension cord or an adapter to connect the dryer to the electrical power source.
•Use your dryer only for its intended purpose, drying clothes.
•Always disconnect the dryer from electrical supply before attempting any service. Disconnect the power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.
•Install the dryer according to the Installation Instructions. All connections for venting, electrical power and grounding must comply with local codes and be made by licensed personnel when required. Do not do it yourself unless you know how!
•To reduce the risk of fire, clothes which have traces of any flammable substances such as vegetable oil, cooking oil, machine oil, flammable chemicals, thinner, etc. or anything containing wax or chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, must not be put into the dryer. These flammable substances may cause the fabric to catch on fire by itself.
•Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
•Keep your dryer in good condition. Bumping or dropping the dryer can damage safety features. If this occurs, have your dryer checked by a qualified service person.
•Replace worn power cords and/or loose plugs.
•Be sure water connections have a shut-off valve and that fill hose connections are tight. Close the shut-off valves at the end of each wash day.
•Loading door must be closed any time the dryer is in operational fill, tumble, or spin. Do not attempt to bypass the loading door switch by permitting the dryer to operate with the loading door open.
•Always read and follow manufacturer’s instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning aids. Heed all warnings or precautions. To reduce the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep them out of the reach of children at all times (preferably in a locked cabinet).
•Always follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer.
•Never operate the dryer with any guards and/or panels removed.
•Do not operate the dryer with missing or broken parts.
•Do not bypass any safety devices.
•Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions may result in conditions which can produce bodily injury and/or property damage.
NOTE: The Warnings and Important Safety Instructions appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. Common sense, caution and care must be exercised when installing, maintaining, or operating the dryer.
Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent or the manufacturer about any problems or conditions you do not understand.

About Ground Wires
In the event of an electrical short circuit, a ground wire reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
Standard accepted color coding for ground wires is green or green with a yellow stripe.
Grounding wires and wires colored like grounding wires are NOT to be used as current carrying conductors.
!WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death, all wiring and grounding must conform with the latest edition of the National Electric Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, and such local regulations as might apply. It is the customer’s responsibility to have the wiring and fuses checked by a qualified electrician to make sure your home has adequate electrical power to operate the dryer.
!WARNING
To avoid risk of personal injury or death due to electrical shock:
•Observe all local codes and ordinances.
•Disconnect electrical power to unit before servicing.
•Ground appliance properly.
•Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure this appliance is properly grounded.
•DO NOT ground to gas line.
•DO NOT ground to cold water pipe if pipe is interrupted by plastic, nonmetallic gaskets, or other insulating (nonconducting) materials.
•DO NOT modify plug on power cord. If plug does not fit electrical outlet, have proper outlet installed by qualified electrician.
•DO NOT have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit. A fuse in the neutral or ground circuit could result in an electrical shock.
•DO NOT use an extension cord with this appliance.
•DO NOT use an adapter plug with this appliance.
•DO NOT pinch power cord.

Important Safety Information
Explanation
Polarization–This means that the larger slot must be neutral and the small slot must be at line voltage. Mispolarized–The outlet is incorrectly wired so that the larger slot is at line voltage and the smaller slot is neutral. Grounded–This means the round hole connection is connected to earth ground through a connection to the main power panel.
Ungrounded–The round hole connection is not complete to earth ground and/or the main power panel.
Grounding Instructions
!WARNING
•To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, do not alter the plug.
•Do not remove grounding prong when installing grounded appliance in a home that does not have three wire grounding receptacle. Under no condition is grounding prong to be cut off or removed. It is the personal responsibility of the consumer to contact a qualified electrician and have properly grounded three prong wall receptacle installed in accordance with appropriate electrical codes.
•To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, this equipment must be grounded.
This equipment MUST be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This unit is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or technician if grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the equipment is properly grounded. Do not use an extension cord. If the product power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install a three-slot receptacle.

General Information
HOW IT WORKS
The cycles are made up of three basic operations. White & Colors, Permanent Press and Delicates and Knits. These operation are sequenced by the controls (timer or microprocessor board) to provide a drying cycle for each of several different fabrics.
Incoming air is pulled over and around the exterior of the rotating tumbler. The air passing over the tumbler is preheated from the warm tumbler. This incoming air also passes over the inside of the cabinet lowering the cabinets temperature and minimizing the heat being dispelled into the laundry area.
The pre-conditioned air is pulled through the heat enclosure. As the air passes over the flame or heating element, it is heated causing the air to expand which increases its ability to absorb more moisture.
The heated air is pulled up the stack and through the grid in the tumbler back, through the tumbler, and to the lower area of the tumbler front. The tumbler is rotating in a clockwise direction lifting the
garments to the top of the tumbler. The garments fall free of the clothes lifters through the air stream. As this tumbling takes place, the garments keep turning over within the tumbler. Moisture is evaporated from the garments tumbling in the warm, dry air.
After passing through the garments, the air will contain moisture and lint. This air is pulled from the tumbler through a fine mesh filter located in the bottom of the door opening. The quantity of lint collected on the filter is dependent upon the size and type of load being dried.
From the filter, the air is pulled into the exhaust blower and forced out the exhaust system. The high speed blower is capable of moving up to 220 CFM of air. The volume of the tumbling chamber is approximately 6.0 cubic feet.
GAS VALVE ASSEMBLY
The gas controls utilize a hot surface ignition system. The three major components of the gas ignition system are: Igniter, Radiant Sensor and Gas Valve.

Igniter - When the controls call for heat, line voltage is applied to the igniter. This causes the igniter to heat up and glow. It can reach a temperature of approximately 2200º F in approximately 30 seconds. Gas contacting the igniter at this temperature will ignite immediately.
Radiant Sensor - The radiant sensor operates much like a regular thermostat. It is mounted to the side of the combustion cone over an opening which exposes the sensor to the heat of the igniter and burner flame.
In its normal condition, the contacts in the radiant sensor are closed and the circuit is completed to the igniter. The igniter glow causes the radiant sensor contacts to open, thus breaking the circuit to the igniter.
Gas Valve - The gas valve is actually two gas valves, one in series with the other. The first valve is opened by a solenoid which has two separate coils built into one solenoid. This solenoid uses what is termed a split coil. The coils are referred to as the Holding Coil and the Booster Coil.
Both coils are needed to lift the armature and open the valve. The holding coil is strong enough to keep the valve open once the armature has been lifted.
The second of the two valves is operated by a one-coil solenoid. This is called a Secondary Coil.

Function of Gas Valve System
The sensor, igniter and gas valve are interrelated and function as ignition and heat source. At the start of the cycle, the radiant sensor contacts are closed, the igniter is at room temperature and the gas valve is closed, blocking the flow of gas. NOTE: On the wiring diagram, the radiant sensor contacts are wired in parallel with the secondary coil. This bypasses current around the secondary coil when the radiant sensor contacts are closed. Valve 2 cannot open with the radiant sensor contacts closed.
Step 1: Operation: Dryer Controls calling for heat: The red wire in the gas valve harness is normally the "hot" side of the line. Voltage is routed to the gas valve assembly through the cycling thermostat located on the blower cover and the hi-limit thermostat on the heater cone. The black wire to the gas valve is normally the neutral side of the line and is completed through the motor centrifugal switch.
Radiant Sensor Contact Closed
The holding coil, booster coil and igniter all receive line voltage. The holding coil and booster coil open Valve 1. Valve 2 is still closed, prohibiting gas flow to the burner. The igniter, operating at line voltage, begins to get very hot. (As the igniter gets hotter, the resistance of the igniter drops.) The igniter glow radiates heat to the radiant sensor.

The booster coil and the igniter are wired in parallel.
Note: While these two components are in parallel with each other, they are wired in series with both the radiant sensor and secondary coil combination.
When the radiant sensor contacts are closed, full line voltage is available to the booster coil and to the igniter.
When the radiant sensor contacts open, current has to flow through the secondary coil on Valve 2 in order to get to the booster coil and igniter. A significant voltage drop develops across the secondary coil. While the parallel booster coil and igniter are still in the circuit, they become ineffective due to their low resistance and the resulting reduced voltage available to them.
The secondary coil on Valve 2 is bypassed because the radiant sensor contacts are closed. By not allowing voltage to the secondary coil, the second valve cannot open and prevents gas flow to burner.
Step 2: Radiant Sensor Contact Open:
The igniter is now hot and valve one (1) is open. The heat from the igniter causes the radiant sensor switch contacts to open.
With the radiant sensor contacts open, the secondary coil is no longer bypassed. The secondary coil is now in series with the parallel circuit combination of the booster coil and the igniter.

Because of the relatively low resistance of the hot igniter, most of the line voltage is dropped across the secondary coil. The remaining voltage is dropped across the booster coil and igniter.
The secondary coil now opens the second valve releasing gas across the still extremely hot igniter. The gas ignites immediately and the burner flame is established.
Note: Since the igniter will cool, the tip is positioned in the burner flame which keeps it hot and resistance low.
The ignition cycle is now completed and the drying cycle begins.
Gas Conversions
The gas valve is set for use with natural gas when shipped from the factory. Because of differences in operating pressure and heat content of gases, the valve must be converted to use fuels other that natural gas.
Conversion kits are available to convert from natural to L.P. and back to natural. Check parts catalog for correct part number.
Safety Features
The design of the system provides for fail-safe operation in the event of power interruption, ignition failure, or flame failure as described below.
Power Interruptions
If the power to the burner assembly is cut off, either by opening the dryer door or by a power line failure, both valves in the gas valve assembly will close. Gas flow will cease.
When power is restored to the valve, the radiant sensor will start the process again. However, if the radiant sensor has not cooled and the contacts are still open, the secondary coil will receive full voltage and OPEN with no gas flowing through the secondary valve.
Since the secondary coil is in series with the booster coil, the reduced current flow through the booster coil is insufficient to create a strong enough magnetic field to help open the first coil valve. When the radiant sensor cools and closes its contacts, the sensor will shut the secondary coil again, providing a full current flow to the igniter and the booster coil, and system will go through a normal ignition sequence.
Ignition Failures
When the radiant sensor reacts to the heat from the igniter and the contacts open, the secondary coil energizes, opening the secondary valve. This allows gas to flow to the burner.
If no gas is present or the gas flow is not ignited, the radiant sensor will cool and the contacts will close, causing the secondary valve to close, thus allowing the igniter to reheat. The system will continue to cycle in this manner until normal ignition occurs or the dryer is turned OFF.
Flame Failure
If the burner flame should go out for any reason, the radiant sensor contacts will close in about 45 seconds and the gas system will go through a normal ignition sequence.

Troubleshooting Procedures
!WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death, disconnect power to unit before servicing, unless testing requires power.
ELECTRICAL TROUBLESHOOTING
The malfunction of an electrical circuit cannot easily be diagnosed unless you first understand how it functions when operating normally. The electrical schematic and wiring diagram includes a cycle sequence chart keyed to the contacts in the timer, relay and/or control switches.
!CAUTION
Resistance or continuity testing is done with the product disconnected from power. Failure to do so can result in damage to your meter.
For the most part, we will only be concerned with continuity. Is there a path or not? References are made between a “closed” (Continuity) reading and an “open (No continuity) reading. One note, when you get and “open” reading, try a higher resistance range (setting). A very high resistance appears as an “open” on the lower ranges. For best accuracy always “rezero” meter when changing ranges and/or the physical position of the meter.
Continuity testing, as related to an electrical component, is the check of a part for an “open” or closed” circuit.
Continuity test of load devices will show varying levels of resistance from very low for some transformer and motor windings to very high for some timer motors and components on control boards. Usually it is more important to know if there is a path for current flow through a device (continuity ) that to know the exact resistance (ohms) of the device.
Continuity tests of switches will show virtually no resistance across a closed contacts. Resistance, even low value indicate burned or dirty contacts in a switch.
When checking components or circuit paths for continuity, external wiring should be disconnected to eliminate false readings through external paths. Isolate what you want to test.
Drive Motor Check
The motor features a leadless motor connection, comprised of a quick connector wire harness which connects directly to the motor. The connector has two locking tabs securing the connector to the motor switch. Press on both locking tabs to release the connector from the motor switch.
Press Here to Release
Connector
Motor Switch
Electrical components fall into two general categories.
1.Loads - Devices that use or consume electricity. Examples would include drive motor, timer and solenoids coils.
2.Switches - Devices that control the supply of electricity to the load or loads in a circuit. Examples include lid switches, timer contacts selector switch and relay contacts.
With the wire harness connector removed, press inward on the brown actuator disc in the motor. The start and run winding can now be checked for proper ohms. Place the leads from an ohm meter on the proper terminals as listed in the following chart.
Using an ohm meter, you can also check the wiring harness for continuity from the timer to the motor.

Motor Test Cord
A motor test cord may be used to electrically check operation of the various electrical components without removing them from the unit. Testing in this manner determines whether or not the part will function independently of other electrical components. In order to make an accurate test, proper connection of the motor test cord is important.
Drive Motor Test
The motor may be checked in the dryer or removed and checked.
Centrifugal Switch
Checking heater/gas valve and motor:
1.Disconnect the wire harness from the motor.
2.Place ohm meter leads to terminals 1 and 2.
3.With your thumbs, depress the BROWN disc located behind the motor switch on the motor shaft. The BROWN disc actuates the lever of the motor switch when the motor is at rest. At optimum motor speed, the disc moves away from the switch lever. When the disc is pressed in toward the windings, the actuator arm of the centrifugal switch will be relaxed. This allows the contacts to close, completing the heater circuit. If no continuity is found when the disc is depressed, change the centrifugal switch.

Air Shutter Adjustment
The air shutter has been stamped "LP" and "N" (for Natural). Loosen the screw holding the shutter, rotate the shutter until the end of the slot (labeled for the gas to be used) contacts the screw. Tighten the screw to lock the shutter in place.
Two test leads are required to check operation of the drive motor. To check the motor for operation, hook the test cord to terminals 4 and 5.

Troubleshooting Procedures
!WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death, disconnect power to unit before servicing, unless testing requires power.
Manometers
Insufficient gas flow can cause problems. Therefore, checking the gas pressure at the time service calls are performed may prevent a return call.
Gas pressure can be checked with an instrument called a "manometer." This device can detect a "low" LP tank, restricted gas flow, bad gas valve, a malfunctioning pressure regulator, too many gas appliances operating off of a small supply line, or an improperly converted appliance from Natural to LP gas.
Other types of manometers exist; however, the type of manometer we will discuss in this manual is a "U" shaped tube in which water is added. Both ends are open so the water can equalize and seek its own level, which will be the same in both arms of the "U" shaped tube.
A flexible rubber hose is connected to the lower, open end of the manometer and to the gas source. Gas pressure is exerted on one of the water columns, pushing it down.
The water level then rises in the other column. The difference in water levels equals the measure of gas pressure.
The water column (W.C.) for a Maytag dryer is 3.5" W.C. for Natural gas and 11" W.C. for LP.
How to Use:
1.Disconnect power supply to unit.
2.Remove front panel.
3.Shut off the gas to the dryer.
4.Install a 1/4" tapered fitting at the gas valve pressure tap. Use thread seal tape or compound on fitting.
5.Fill the manometer tube with water until each side equalizes at "0" water column.
6.Push the end of the manometer hose onto the 1/4" fitting located on the gas valve.
7.Connect hose to one end of the manometer.
8.Turn on the gas and reconnect dryer to power. Run the dryer in a heat cycle. Read the manometer with the burner ON, (check for gas leaks).
9.When the gas is on, the amount of water column present is equal to the total amount of deflection shown in the manometer.
Note: Once the test is completed, make sure the tapered fitting is removed from the gas valve and the plug is repositioned into the gas valve and resealed with pipe seal. Check for gas leaks again with a soap or bubble solution. NEVER
USE OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
Note: IF HIGH WATER COLUMN PRESSURE IS DETECTED; the gas flame can damage the flame spreader on the burner. (this can be cuased by the wrong orfice, improper air mixture or high gas pressure. If pressure is as high as suspected, contact the local gas utilities company to check the outside regulator.)

If dryer will not start or run, check the following:
•All wires are hooked up to their corresponding terminals.
•Dryer is plugged in.
•Blown fuse or circuit breaker.
•Door switch functional...door closed.
•Push-to-start switch functional.
•Timer functional...set in a cycle.
•Drive motor functional.
•Blown thermal fuse.
If drive motor runs, but the tumbler will not turn, check the following:
•Belt off or broken/damaged.
•Idler tension spring too weak or stretched.
•Idler pulley jammed or stuck.
If dryer runs a few minutes and then stops - motor overload protector opens, check the following:
•Lint buildup around drive motor.
•Low voltage present.
•Blower impeller blocked in blower housing.
•Drive motor - start switch contacts stuck closed.
If dryer blows fuses or trips circuit breaker, check the following:
Electric Models
•The amperage readings are at 240 volts. One line will be 24 amps and other line will be 21 amps. The neutral line will be at 4 amps. If the above amperages are present, then the house wiring, fuse box or circuit breaker should be suspected.
•Shorted heating element to housing.
•Incorrect wiring or a wire shorting to ground.
•Drive motor winding shorting to ground.
Gas Models
•During ignition, the dryer will draw 7 amps. With the burner ON, the dryer will draw 4.5 amps. If the dryer is drawing amperages below this, then the house wiring, fuse box or circuit breaker are suspected to be at fault.
•Igniter harness loose and shorted to base.
•Incorrect wiring or wire shorted to ground.
•Drive motor winding shorting to ground.
Will Not Shut-Off
On time dry settings, check the following:
•Timer motor receiving proper voltage.
•Check timer motor connections.
•Timer functional.
Will Not Dry
If dryer will not heat (motor runs), check the following:
•Restricted exhaust caused by plastic or thin foil flexible duct.
•Open heating element.
•Hi-Limit thermostat trips too soon or is open.
•Cycling thermostat trips too soon or is open.
•Temperature selector switch mis-wired or contacts open.
•Timer functional.
•Cycle selector switch mis-wired or contacts open.
•Drive motor centrifugal start switch not allowing voltage to gas valve or heating element.
If improper drying/clothes wrinkled/rough texture/taking too long to dry, check the following:
•Restricted exhaust caused by plastic or thin foil flexible duct.
•Lint filter is not clean.
•Restriction in exhaust.
•Outside exhaust hood damper door stuck closed.
•Exhaust too long, too many elbows, flex ductwork installed.
•Poor makeup air available for the dryer.
•Incorrect tumbler speed. Tumbler belt slipping.
•Blower impeller bound; check for foreign material in blower area.
•Customer overloading dryer.
•Check clothing labels for fabric content and cycle selected.
•Gas valve coil opens - weak point in coil opens when stressed under heated conditions.
•Clothes too wet due to insufficient spinout by washer.
Noisy and/Or Vibration
•Thumping. Check for loose tumbler baffle, rear tumbler roller(s) worn or misaligned, out-of-round tumbler or high weld seam on tumbler.
•Ticking. Check for loose wire harness or object caught in blower wheel area.
•Scraping. Check for front or rear bulkhead felt seal out of position or worn tumbler front Rulon™ bearings.
•Popping or squealing sound. Check for a sticky or frayed belt.
