Thermostat Diagnosing
Continuity can be checked at the thermostat or
from the main board. From the main board on the
electric dryer, check from the common terminals
of K502 or K501 relays to the line one side of the
power cord or terminal block.
NOTE
: Disconnect
the J101 connector from the main board to
prevent a false reading. If there's no continuity
found, either the outlet or inlet backup thermostat
could be open as they are in the same circuit.
