I could be all wet with this but have you check the switch on the door see if it's stuck----also the answers given before are good replies----do you have a schematic?----you've replaced the mother board so depending that's not faulty it should work or you've eliminate one issue---what ever sequence follows the events that start the dryer----by more info--- is the drum turning??----is it turning and your getting no heat----another issue which may or may not be the case is polarity via house wiring----have you had any recent issues with your wiring----wire changing and or service entrance---utility pole replacement----storms---lightning---these are things that can drive electronics nuts with out knowing it---this is all I can think of at the moment---get back to me with more info if you can

Check the wiring then the heating element.

All those parts are in the bottom front. TURN off the power! then open the front door and remove the 4 screw's, 2 on the hindges and 2 on the other side. Then you can close the door, and pull from the top edges of the front panel(sometimes you need a thin screw driver to free the front) the front panel will tilt forward and then you can lift it off. You will need a Ohm meter to check those parts for continuity. Make sure you remove the wires from the part you are testing.

Check the blower to make sure it is properly secured on the motor shaft. Also check all of the bearings: motor, tensioner pulley and drum support rollers or drum bearings. You may have to disengage the belt to check the motor and tensioner.

This is a heavy one but I've stated before that all appliances and electronics need a functioning ground----you can't use a 3prong adapter to 2prong----there's no ground for the machine to function by and also an ungrounded machine is dangerous----this may not be your problem but it's the easiest to fix, the cheapest and the safest

Blower wheel housing

Pf shows a power failure hols the stop clear button and it should work again.As for your other problems I will more details such as a model number Gas or Electric dryer and example of the problem in detail

You just have to take off the back of the machine. Should be about 20 hex head screws holding it on. Make sure you unplug before you do anything.

...check the specific beep codes for your dryer. Often if a dryer beeps it's one of two things; obstruction of the barrel which is preventing it from spinning, or overheating. In some newer dryers it'll beep if there is a unbalanced, much like many new washers. However this last one is easily remedied by removing the item that's causing the balance issue. Since you're posting a question on here I suspect this simple answer isn't the one you're looking for.

1st remove outer door 17 by removing screws from 2 hinges so that you can remove front panel 24. Then remove drum support 6 (bottom pix) so that you can remove belt 18
