overall checkup of the dryer with these tests
before going to specific troubleshooting tests.

A potential cause of a control not functioning is
corrosion on connections. Observe connections
and check for continuity with an ohmmeter.

for broken or loose wires. Check for wires not
pressed into connector far enough to engage
metal barbs.
Resistance checks must be made with dryer
unplugged or power disconnected.
