This was a great video and helped me test most of the components. However, there is one section that was not very clear and that was in the section of the video beginning around 2 minutes where you are testing the dryer element. When I did this test I tested between the two terminals and I got continuity. However, when I touched the top pin on the thermostat I did not. However, it didn't occur to me at first to be a problem because you stated you can test either one. It would have been helpful if you had broken this into two tests. One for the element and one for the thermostat. I eventually figured it out but it was a bit confusing to me at first. Thanks for the great video however. Besides that small clarification, it was the best video and the most thorough I have seen to date.

I purchased this one but was unable to resolve my dryers issue after replacing all 5 components with what came inside the kit. Additionally there is a “jumper cable” in the kit that supposedly connects the bottom right two elements, but I can’t figure out how to install it. Maybe that’s the issue or maybe I bought the wrong kit. Do you have a suggestion for a compatible kit to buy? Thank you for such a thorough and well done video!
@bensappliancesandjunk2 жыл бұрын
The jumper wire connects the thermostat to the heating element. Most newer kits have a thermostat that has a welded arm that connects to that piece. All the parts we currently sell are here: bens-appliances.com/collections/whirlpool-dryer If you replaced the element and sensors, you'd want to make sure you're getting 240v to the terminal block, then check the timers' contacts. Both things are mentioned in the video.
@projectkickass59892 жыл бұрын
@@bensappliancesandjunk Thank you for that tidbit about the welded arm, that makes a lot of sense - that’s why the jumper cable wouldn’t connect, the welded arm was already connected to the heating element, leaving no room for the jumper cable to connect. Unfortunately you don’t currently carry the parts I would have needed to fix the dryer but I hope that you are able to sell all the parts you have and add even more- my dryer started working after I removed some of the replacement parts from the link and left a few others on.

@bensappliancesandjunk10 ай бұрын
If your element is grounding to the casing it means the electric is going thru the coils into the metal of the heating cannister. That's bad. It means the electric isn't going thru the coils entirely so less heat. What can happen is since the heating system is literally warped it can heat that metal up instead of the coils causing all kinds of crazy issues. Replace the element immediately if you get any reading thru 1 spade terminal and the casing itself

If it is taking longer than usual to dry a load of clothes and you feel the clothes are getting hot during the cycle. You have a blockage in the vent system.

If they are clear then you need to clean the vent ducting and exhaust port on the outside whether on the outside wall or roof.

Multimeter sends an electrical signal itself since its battery powered
@cawag98 Жыл бұрын
You're testing the individual parts (from plus to minus, or lead to lead) to see: is this part still connected to itself. Heater wires connect plus and minus - a very little bit, so it doesn't short out and trip your circuit breaker - and glow red and get hot when they work. If they're bumped hard and break, or break from overheating/long life, the actual metal wires won't be connected anymore. Most of these parts are tested for resistance/ohms/continuity. The multimeter runs electricity through the part's leads when testing resistance "ohms" or continuity. When the metal wires aren't connected anymore, you'll have infinite resistance or '0' or no continuity. The other main use of a multimeter is testing live voltages, either AC (110v house power etc) or DC (battery voltages).
