TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

- As the micom dry machine is conﬁgured of the complicate structure, there might be the service call. Below information is prepared for exact trouble diagnosis and suitable repair guide.

Caution for the Repair and Replacement

1) As some electronic components are damaged by the charged static electricity from the resin

part of dryer or the human body, prepare the human body earth or remove the potential diﬀerence of the human body and dryer by contacting the power supply plug when the work contacting to PCB is executed.

2) As the P.C.B assembly is designed for no trouble, do not replace the P.C.B assembly by the wrong diagnosis and follow the procedure of the trouble diagnosis when the micom is not operated normally.

Please follow below instruction for the trouble diagnosis and parts replacement.

No Problem What To Do

1 Will Not Start or Run

• All wires are hooked up to their corresponding terminals.

• Dryer is plugged in.

• Blown fuse or circuit breaker.

• Door switch functional...door closed. Check for error code 3 (See

Table for codedeﬁnition).

• Start/Pause rotary selector dial functional.

• Control Board operational.

• Belt oﬀ or broken and Belt Cut-oﬀ Switch operates.

• Drive motor functional.

• Check motor winding resistance: 2.88ohms between pin #3 and 4,

3.5ohms between pin #4 and 5.

Motor runs/ tumbler will not turn

• Belt oﬀ or broken/damaged.

• Idler tension spring too weak or stretched.

• Idler pulley jammed or stuck.

Runs a few minutes and then stops

• Lint buildup around drive motor.

• Low voltage present.

• Blower impeller blocked in blower housing.

• Drive motor - start switch contacts stuck closed.

Blows fuses or trips circuit breaker

• Is the belt connected well?

• Is the winding of the motor continuous? (Rotor winding, stator winding, generator)

• Is the motor protector normal?

• If above points are not found, the PCB assembly is out of order. Replace it.

Blows fuses or trips circuit breaker (Gas Model)

• During ignition the dryer will draw X amps. With the burner ON, the

dryer will draw X amps. If the dryer is drawing amperages above this, then the house wiring, fuse box or circuit breaker is 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 heat (motor runs)

Open heating element.

• Hi-Limit trips easily or is open.

• Regulating thermostat trips easily or is open.

• Membrane switch open.

• Check Thermistor.

Will Not Dry Gas Model Poor Gas Ignition

When the dryer is operated on a heat setting, the igniter should be energized and burner shall ﬁre within 45 seconds at 120 VAC. The failure of a component in this system will usually be indicated by one of three symptoms:

WARNING

To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death; disconnect power to dryer before servicing, unless testing requires power.

Technical_information-03382A_EN_131209.indd 5 2013-12-09 �� 5:37:31

No Problem What To Do

The igniter does not glow

If the igniter does not heat up, remove power and using an ohmmeter, check the following:

• Open ﬂame sensor

• Open igniter

• Shorted booster coil

• Open wiring

• Bad motor switch ( Neutral supply)

• No power from control ( L1 supply)

Igniter glows - No gas ignition

If the igniter heats up but the main burner ﬂame is not ignited, remove power and using an ohmmeter, check the following:

• Open secondary coil

• Open holding coil

• Open wire harness

• Stuck ﬂame sensor (Stuck closed)

The gas is ignited but the ﬂame goes out

If a normal ignition takes place and after a short while the ﬂame goes out, check for the following:

• Radiant sensor contacts opening prematurely.

• Weak gas valve coil may open when stressed by higher Temps.

• Weak Hi-Limit

• Poor venting

• Bad drum seals

Improper drying clothes wrinkled Rough texture long dry time

• 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 intake 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.

• Clothes too wet due to insuﬃcient spin out 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 bearings.

• Roaring Check for blower wheel rubbing on blower housing or bad motor bearings.

• Popping or squealing sound. Check for a sticky or frayed belt.
