NO POWER TO TOP DRAW

Not sure which model you have but if top drawer in double drawer has no power then it could mean a few things - either the thermal cutoff sensor has blown or the power board at the base of the dishwasher (under bottom drawer has blown). If you are not getting an F2 error on bottom drawer then more likely it is the thermal sensor. Not an easy job to fix as the whole heater assembly has to be replaced. The cutoff is integrated with the heater. The power board is easy to replace provided you have good handyman skills. ALWAYS TAKE OUT MAINS CABLE before working inside the dishwasher.

Heater motor wll not run on 2003 chevy avanlance

A common problem is that the speed control resistor is burnt out. Usually this resistor is in the air plenum so it is cooled by airflow. Search Google for: "chevy 2003 avalanche heater resistor" and several photos of this will appear. NOTE: the little thing supported by two leads above what looks like a flat plate is a one-shot thermal fuse. If you are adept at electronics you can get a new fuse of the SAME TEMP RATING from Mouser.com or Digikey.com and replace just this thermal fuse IF the rest of the resistor is still good. At Digikey search for THERMAL FUSE and be sure and get same temp rating. These are commonly used in appliances such as hair driers as a safety cutoff. Once the element in them melts, they permanently open and shut down the appliance.

Dryer runs, no heat, element OK 10.5ohm, Hi limit thermostat .8 ohm, next one is thermal cutoff or operating thermostat, open no meter readings. Part # FSP 3399848 could this be my problem? Thank You

Hello,

Both the Thermal cutoff and the operating t-stat should have ZERO ohms resistiance 0.8 is fine but open on either they are bad

That part number you have listed is what ya would need..even if only the thermal cutoff is open replace both the thermal cutoff and high limit t-stat at the same time

also if the cycling t-stat is open replace it too...if its fairly modenr and hasa digital display the cycling thermostat is a thermister and at room temp that will be about 5.8 thousand ohms

if has timer the cycling t-stat will look like the high limit t-stat and should be closed

Replaced elements but does not heat in bowl

Check the thermal cutoff located on the element. It is designed to blow if the element gets too hot. If the thermal cutoff is blown, the hi limit thermostat (also located on the element) will also need to be replaced. It will have two terminals on it and if it is good it will have continuity. Trace the wires back from the element. The first one it comes to will be the thermal cutoff, next will be the high limit thermostat.

No heat.

If the drum turns then either the element itself is broken or the thermal cutoff is blown. The thermal cutoff is located on the element and is designed to keep the element from getting to hot. If that is blown you will also need to replace your operating thermostat which turns the element on and off. is should be located on the exhaust. If the drum is not spinning at all it is most likely the thermal fuse which is also located on the exhaust.

Straightener not working!!!!

It sounds to me like the thermal cutoff switch has blown. Straighteners have these as a safety device similar to a fuse to protect against fire in the event it gets too hot. These are not very costly to replace. Here is a link to where you can buy them and what they look like:

http://www.welco.com.cn/?gclid=CJiWv7TN2ZQCFQpzHgodl1LXQQ

Make sure you get one of the exact same cutoff point as the one designed for yours. If you put in a higher temp device it will be harder to blow but will make it dangerous as it may cause a fire if it over heats. Some shady repair men will just bypass this and it will work again fine but this is a dangerous practice as it directly puts you of danger. If you do have it repaired at a shop demand for the old thermal cutoff from your unit when you drop it off so the tech will know you know what is wrong with it and that you will check to make sure that it has really been changed. This will also not give him the chance to over charge you when he knows you know it is only a 1 dollar part and easy to change.
This device is very easy to change, If you can open your unit you could easily do this yourself. The part, as you will see on the site where you buy them, only has 2 wires one coming out of each end. You simply cut out the old 1 and replace it with the new one. You do not even have to worry which end goes where. It is like a fuse, it works the same either direction. You have to buy some wire crimp connector to connect it, you can not just solder it in due to the heat in the iron. In a pinch you could just securely twist the ends of the leads with the leads from the old cutoff if you clip the leads from the old cutoff real close to the device. This will leave you with plenty of wire to get a good twist. I always use the crimp connectors so it looks more professional.
Anyway, I hope you found this to be helpful and if you need more help feel free to ask me. I will stay with you on this until we have it fixed.
