L87695WD – No heat on dry

both should read 5000 ohms at 25 degrees C

I didn’t actually check them with heat….. there’s 2 toc’s on the dryer duct (one is white on top, the other is black on the side) then there’s a thermister in the front where the ducting bends towards the door seal

I’ll go back to check them with a lighter….. but if they react to the heat and are ok then I’d be looking at the dryer pcb failure I’m guessing?

you could try timed dry instead of automatic

also you cannot say its the board till everthing else has been looked at like tracing sensors back to board to make sure its not a wiring problem

I went back today for another lool………..The new “one shot” stat had the same response to heat as the original, then I by-passed the other 2 stats but with no better results – the heaters are both ok, the wiring to & from the parts-pcb are all ok, so I’m thinking it must be the dryer pcb at fault

BUT I’m getting mains power to the top “one shot” stat (2 grey wires) and the side stat (2 blue wires) which is confusing me because in my mind it should then heat up…. but its not 🙁
