TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
- As the micom dry machine is congured of the complicate structure, there might be the
service call.
Below information is prepared for exact trouble diagnosis and suitable repair guide.
Caution for the Repair and Replacement
1) As some electronic components are damaged by the charged static electricity from the resin
part of dryer or the human body, prepare the human body earth or remove the potential
dier ence of the human body and dryer by contacting the power supply plug when the work
contacting to PCB is executed.
2) As the P.C.B assembly is designed for no trouble, do not replace the P.C.B assembly by the
wrong diagnosis and follow the procedure of the trouble diagnosis when the micom is not
operated normally.

WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death; disconnect power to dryer before
servicing, unless testing requires power.
Please follow below instruction for the trouble diagnosis and parts replacement.

No Problem What To Do
1Will Not Start or Run
• All wires are hooked up to their corresponding terminals.
• Dryer is plugged in.
• Blown fuse or circuit breaker.
• Door switch functional...door closed. Check for error code 3 (See
Table for codedenition).
• Start/Pause rotary selector dial functional.
• Control Board operational.
• Belt o or broken and Belt Cut-o Switch operates.
• Drive motor functional.
• Check motor winding resistance: 2.88ohms between pin #3 and
4, 3.5ohms between pin #4 and 5.
2Motor runs/ tumbler
will not turn
• Belt o or broken/damaged.
• Idler tension spring too weak or stretched.
• Idler pulley jammed or stuck.
3Runs a few minutes
and then stops
• Lint buildup around drive motor.
• Low voltage present.
• Blower impeller blocked in blower housing.
• Drive motor - start switch contacts stuck closed.
4Blows fuses or trips
circuit breaker
- Is the belt connected well?
- Is the winding of the motor continuous?
(Rotor winding, stator winding, generator)
- Is the motor protector normal?
• If above points are not found, the PCB assembly is out of order.
Replace it.

Blows fuses or trips
circuit breaker (Gas
Model)
• During ignition the dryer will draw X amps. With the burner ON,
the dryer will draw X amps. If the dryer is drawing amperages
above this, then the house wiring, fuse box or circuit breaker is
suspected to be at fault.
• Igniter harness loose and shorted to base.
• Incorrect wiring or wire shorted to ground.
• Drive motor winding shorting to ground.
6Will not heat (motor
runs)
Open heating element.
• Hi-Limit trips easily or is open.
• Regulating thermostat trips easily or is open.
• Membrane switch open.
• Check Thermistor.

Will Not Dry Gas
Model Poor Gas
Ignition
When the dryer is operated on a heat setting, the igniter should be
energized and burner shall re within 45 seconds at 120 VAC. The
failure of a component in this system will usually be indicated by one
of three symptoms:

No Problem What To Do
8The igniter does not
glow
If the igniter does not heat up, remove power and using an
ohmmeter, check the following:
• Open ame sensor
• Open igniter
• Shorted booster coil
• Open wiring
• Bad motor switch ( Neutral supply)
• No power from control ( L1 supply)
9Igniter glows - No gas
ignition
If the igniter heats up but the main burner ame is not ignited,
remove power and using an ohmmeter, check the following:
• Open secondary coil
• Open holding coil
• Open wire harness
• Stuck ame sensor (Stuck closed)
10 The gas is ignited but
the ame goes out
If a normal ignition takes place and after a short while the ame goes
out, check for the following:
• Radiant sensor contacts opening prematurely.
• Weak gas valve coil may open when stressed by higher Temps.
• Weak Hi-Limit
• Poor venting
• Bad drum seals
11
Improper drying
clothes wrinkled
Rough texture long
dry time
• Lint lter is not clean.
• Restriction in exhaust.
• Outside exhaust hood damper door stuck closed.
• Exhaust too long, too many elbows, ex ductwork installed.
• Poor intake air available for the dryer.
• Incorrect tumbler speed. Tumbler belt slipping.
•
Blower impeller bound; check for foreign material in blower area.
• Customer overloading dryer.
• Check clothing labels for fabric content and cycle selected.
• Clothes too wet due to insucient spin out by washer.
12 Noisy and/Or
Vibration
• Thumping Check for loose tumbler bae, rear tumbler roller(s)
worn or misaligned, out-of-round tumbler or high weld seam on
tumbler.
• Ticking Check for loose wire harness or object caught in blower
wheel area.
• Scraping Check for front or rear bulkhead felt seal out of
position or worn tumbler front bearings.
• Roaring Check for blower wheel rubbing on blower housing or
bad motor bearings.
• Popping or squealing sound. Check for a sticky or frayed belt.
