Whirlpool LGR6611L Gas Dryer - Page 5 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Check that the belt is good & didn't slip off where it connects on the motor shaft if that's all good remove the belt from the motor & see if the motor is running ok . Don't run the motor very long or everything will get too hot, check all drum rollers they should turn freely , check Idler pully should turn freely check Bearing ring for front support (279441) $45.44 Hope this helps belt # 341241

Sounds like it had a short in the panel by the light flashing in the control boards some of the voltages are low & maybe wouldn't kick the breaker .If that's the case it may have damaged a part that wont let it start. Just guessing those boards are expensive that's why I don't like them .

The wire most likely goes to the door switch if not hooked up would not start. There should be a diagram in the dryer unless someone took it out which happens.

The diagram for the Whirlpool should be somewhere in the dryer if no one took it out don't know about the other one .

should be in the dryer somewhere unless someone took it out which happens .

Check the heat sensor in the auto setting it is usely on the drum that's what turns the dryer off when it is dry . The wet clothes get against it when they are dry it shuts off. Hope this helps

There should be a diagram somewhere in the dryer most likely inside the control console remove the cover from the back of the console & look in there If no there it may be pasted on the back on th inside you can see it when you lift the console . If not there someone must have taken it out .always put it back for next time. you can figure it out from the diagram. Hope this helps

What's the problem ?

There should be a wiring diagram in the dryer somwhere unless someone took it out take the cover off the back of the control console it's usely ther or some are glued on you can see it when you lift the console. Hope this helps if not go to an appliance dealer & ask them they will have a diagram.

Sounds like the timer connections are bad inside the timer . When you wiggle it it makes a connection most likely need a new timer most of them can't be repaired anymore they are very expensive . Check all the wires going to the timer for being loose & not making a good connection before ording one . Hope this helps

I wouldn't bypass the thermal switch it's there to keep the dryer from getting too hot & causing a fire if it is bad something caused it to get too hot I would check all the other thermostats & also be sure the vents are not stoped up & not letting the heat out the vent . Sometimes they get so stoped up the fan can't turn & blow the heat out the vent. Hope this helps

Don't know if your dryer has one but it could be the start relay is bad .

Make sure all the wiring going to the parts you replaced are correct . Doesn't happen very often but the centrifugal switch on the motor could be bad. It's there so if the motor quits it cuts off the heat so you don't have a fire.Hope this helps

Most likely the vent are stopped up clean it all from the inside the dryer to the outside vent . Lint builds up in it & won't let the heat out & it gets too hot . Hope this helps

GO SEE A DEALER .

Electric dryer no start does nothing Check dryer Terminal block prongs both outside prongs should give combined 220, and 110 each if u check 1 outside & 1 center (ground) prong. Also check house electrical outlet for full voltage. CHECK THERMAL SHUT OFF THERMOSTAT USUALLY LOCATED ON THE BLOWER. for OHMS or resistance with a meter. Should show a closed circuit. Ohms WHEN THIS FUSE BLOWS IT WILL SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING. NEXT Test the PUSH start switch with meter for OHMS. Should show OHMS when pushed in or on start, and no ohms or infinity when in off position. If you hear a humming/clicking sound from motor area you more than likely have a bad motor. Try this test out to see if u have weak windings or relay/capacitor on motor. Open the dryer door and turn by hand the drum while machine is on ON position. And you or someone else presses the door engagement switch in. If it starts up then u have bad windings Another thing to check is the belt safety switch. With a multi meter. Especially if u just replaced the belt. The belt safety switch is attached to the Tensioner and motor. IT LOOKS LIKE A DOOR SWITCH SOMEWHAT a little black pc of plastic with 2 prongs going into it. Sits at bottom of motor. Under the Tensioner. Attach meter clips to the 2 prongs on switch, Then when the little white push button is pressed in it should show continuity and none when released. Lastly check ur DOOR SWITCH for continuity with a meter when the button is pushed in the (on/Door closed position,) it may have gone bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhVUEhngZMg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xD7lCXJ0ZM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTRP6kHqAFs GOD IS GOOD !!!!

VERY DANGEROUS YOU NEED TO CHNAGE OUT THE ELECTRICAL PLUG CORD AND CHECK THE TERMINAL BLOCK As u have a short somewhere its easy to change the terminal block
