5.1
Problem - No Power
The following checks are based on there being the correct supply voltage at the outlet and
the power cord is fastened securely to the dryer’s terminal block.
WARNING: The power must be turned off and the dryer disconnected from the
supply outlet to carry out the following checks.
5.1.1
Check the Continuity of the Power Cord (Electric)
(a)
Remove the cover plate from the bottom right corner at the back of the machine
and check that the wiring connections are secure.
(b)
With an ohmmeter, check for continuity between
the neutral (N) terminal of the plug and the
centre connection on the terminal block in the
dryer, and between the appropriate pin on the
plug and the upper most terminal on the
terminal block of the dryer (L1 - red wire). Also
check between the appropriate pin on the plug
and the lower most terminal on the terminal
block (L2 - black wire). If there is continuity in
these wires, go to Section 5.1.2.
(c)
If there is no continuity, replace the power cord and retest the dryer.
5.1.2
Check the Continuity of the Main Harness (Electric)
(a) Follow instructions for removal of components within the cabinet. (Refer to
Section 6.6)
(b) Disconnect the main harness from the motor control module, manual resetable
thermostat and automatic reset thermostats.
(c) Follow instructions for removal of the drum and
chassis assembly. (Refer to Section 6.16)
(d) Pass the wiring loom out through exhaust duct.
(e) Remove the cover plate from the bottom right
corner at the back of the machine.
(f)
Check the continuity from L1 on the terminal
block to the heater relay and the mains
connections on the motor control module (red
wires), and the continuity from L2 (black wires)
on the terminal block to the mains connector on the motor control module and
the manual resetable thermostat on the element carrier.
(g)
If there is no continuity, check that the terminal connections are secure. If so,
replace the mains harness.
(h)
If there is continuity in the harness, replace the motor control module and retest
the dryer.
