When I turn the dryer on it seems to light up on the control panel properly, however there are some problems.1. After selecting the drying mode the time display still flashes and the mode light turns off after the start button is pushed. 2. If the dry level buttons are pushed then the time dry lights advance
3. when other selectors are pushed then the time lights advance. It would seem that one of the control cars is bad. What would you suggest
For model number 79681182310

Hello Michael, Thank you for the question. Normally this is an indication the Main PCB Board needs to be replaced. We hope this helps!

Dryer will not turn on . It has power because the light inside dryer comes on when the door is open. Unplugged for 60 seconds and plugged back in and did not help.
For model number 79681182310

Hello Charles, thank you for your question. We suggest replacing the Thermal Fuse PS3530485. The next most common issue would be a defective Door Switch PS3529308. If either the thermal fuse or the door switch has blown, the dryer will not start. We are pleased to have been able to help.

Ok on the front panel the cooling light stays on so that I have no heat
For model number 79681182310

Hello Penny, Thank you for the question. We suggest testing the Dryer Thermistor NTC and the Sensor Bars. Make sure they are not damaged or out of place so they can sense the temperature. The Thermistor should read 10K ohms at room temperature at 70 degrees the resistance should be 9.3K ohms, 90 degrees would be 7.7K ohms, 100 degrees should be be 6.2K ohms, 120 degrees 4.3K ohms. We hope this helps!

Dryer would run with no heat
I actually went to mr fix it on u tube. Great instruction on how to take dryer apart. First I unplugged the dryer. I found I could reach the heating system by removing the lint tube in the back of the dryer. I put my I phone with the light on inside the back of the dryer and tested the connections to see if all were working. The thermal fuse was not working. I removed the two wires , red on top and white on the bottom. Then used a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the two mounting screws and removed the fuse. I then used a vacuum to clear any lint from the back of the dryer and inside the dryer. This took me about an hour and a half. I did it this way because I did not want to disassemble the entire dryer to get to the components. I received the fuse in 3 days and tested it. It was fine. I then put it in the dryer screwed it in place, connected the wires. Replaced the lint tube. This took about 10 minutes. Dryer is running great.
