Dry won't start ,light comes on and a click sound
For model number MED6000XW0
Hi Irene,
Thank you for your question. If the dryer will not start, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the internal bias thermostat, the idler pulley with bracket, the moisture sensor, the terminal block and the motor pulley. You will need to test the electrical parts with a multi-meter. Here is a link to one of our videos on YouTube that you may use as a general reference on how to use one, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWC44fHn0As. The other parts will need to be checked visually for signs of damage. We hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day.
The control panel lights (push buttons at right edge of console) do not light and appear to not impact control of the dryer. Is it possible the dryer will work with those control buttons unplugged? I don't see the display or control buttons on the parts diagram. What diagrams should i reference for parts numbers and wiring?
For model number MED6000XW0
Hello Brian,
Thank you for your question. It will not be possible to run the dryer without the display functioning, since it controls most of the types of cycles for the dryer. There is not a wiring diagram for your dryer model, but the wires and control display are on the Top and Console parts diagram on our site. We hope this helps.

What are the parts numbers for the display and right-hand control buttons for this dryer? I see the control knob on the "top and console parts" diagram but not the display or those buttons. They would be to the right of item 13. For some reason the control buttons to the right of the display do not appear to be working on our dryer. The dryer functions but it is as if those buttons are locked out or non functioning. Any suggestions?
For model number MED6000XW0
Hello and thank you for writing.
The only part still available is the control knob PS6883837, only the main control board is available PS11753953. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime if you require further assistance.
Panel lights work, but the 'start' button elicits a 'click' and will not start.
Is there a diagnostic function?
For model number MED6000XW0
Hello Bill, thank you for a very interesting question. According to our research, you dryer may be facing this issue because of the blown thermal fuse. We recommend you replace the thermal fuse, part number PS11741460, to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!
The issue was the idler pulley. First I began opening up the front panel based on a youtube video but soon realized the model was slightly different and required a lot more items to remove. I saw the pulley in the back with nothing in the way so I put the front panel crap back on and removed the rear panel. There it was, very simple to re

I purchased the dryer repair kit with the drum belt, wheels and idler pulley. I watched the instructional videos online and it seemed fairly straight forward. Breaking down the dryer and replacing the pulleys was easy enough. My problem began when I tried to feed the drum belt around the idler pulley. After finishing the job, the dryer wo

Finally I figured out that the drum belt was not installed correctly around the idler pulley. However, I could not get it properly installed from the front of the machine so I tried from the rear still with no avail. I finally had to fish the old belt out of the garbage can that I had thrown away earlier. I lined up the old belt with the new one in the kit and discovered that the new belt was much smaller, so I put the old one back on the drum. Here's the lesson I learned...make sure the belts are the same size before attempting to install. The old idler was responsible for the squeaking and that stopped but I am still using the same old drum belt. Hope it lasts.
I removed the top cover and then the back cover, released the belt tensioner and removed the drive belt. Then slid the tub out of the unit and onto the back dack. Sanded the remnents of the old seal off. Wiped the tub lip with laquer thinner and applied the "fast" drying glue supplied with the kit. Installed the seal and re-assembled the
