Won't start like it has no power but days later will work fine then re

Have changed thermostats, theromister and thermostats assembly. Didn't change thermal fuse because it does heat when it will eventually start again. Will act as if no power going to machine. Cord ,socket and breakers replaced as well.

Does the light in the dryer work OK but just not the control board?

von

No dryer light won't come on either acts like it's getting no power anywhere. I've flipped breakers back and forth and left them off for a while and flip back still won't work. Haven't tested thermal fuse but will tomorrow disconnected every wire and reconnected no luck

Check for loose wiring connections on the door switch and also the control board.

Here's a wiring diagram that may help.

I realize that it is not your model but hopefully it will be close enough to be of some help.

The control board gets its power through the transformer on the board and the thermal fuse just stops operation not power to the control board.

The lamp is wired directly to the power and lights through the door switch so it looks like a loose connection somewhere from the input to either the lamp, door switch or control board depending on which way the wires were run as wiring diagrams never show which is the first point of connection if there's more than one wire connected to the same place.

Already checked the connections everywhere except the light which works fine when it does want too work so didn't think to check it. Checked the cords providing power to control board as well it's getting power and took off front even though all buttons and functions work when it will come on everything's clean. Control board is the only thing I can think of or and thermal fuse not functioning properly

@nicki86

Did you use a voltmeter or a test lamp to check if voltage was there at the connections it should be at normal?
