I bought a used stacked washer /dryer. I hooked it up likea standard 220 dryer. Has the standard dryer plug in. Would not run start or hum in 20 mode. Checked the wiring. looks like it was wired for 110, switched the wiring to 220 ran 30 seconds. My question, can these units be run 0n 110, do you think I may have fried the motor if in fact they wired it for 110. Thanks

you can't do that,why didn't he just run a 240 volt plug to the dryer

Hello Troy, I have checked the schematic which should be located behind the sloping front panel above the washer lid. The washer portion is powered by 110 vac supplied from the dryer's L1 connection (black) and the neutral (white). It should be quite simple to make an adapter with "hardware store" parts like a standard 20 amp plug and an appropriate 220 volt receptical. Please verify that the neutral lead goes to chassis ground and make use of the 110 plug's ground to the receptacal ground (green headed screws) with a seperate lead, for your safety. When the machine is plugged into the adapter, only the washer should function.
As a final note, I see that the dryer motor and timer are also 110 volt but are connected from the other hot lead, L2, to neutral. Only the heater is powered by 220 vac. Therefore if you should connect to L2 by mistake, only the dryer drum would operate. Unfortunately, I do not see a simple way to make both the washer and dryer run on a single 110 feed.

If the unit has a 30 amp/220volt plug, then you will need a dedicated 30 amp outlet from a 220 volt line from the panel. You can not switch the plug to work with a regular (15-20 amp) outlet. Have an electrician install a 10 gauge 220 line from the panel to the unit. good luck!

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,

Models will be manufactured for each. Check the plates on the back; I'm sure it will be marked there, or in your booklet (?).

Cheers,

I think you have to but them separate from a hardware store. They come in dirrerent lengths. If you purchased one it seems that you would know that by reading the instructions.

if it has a small 3 prong plug then it's 110v for the washer but the dryer should be factory 220 volt however many were sold wired too! 110 volt! just look at the plug small plug 110v large 3 prong! 220v

The Model number could be on the top of the machine or around the dryer door or by the washer lid. if your looking for a 220/240 volt 3 prong cord you should be able to get one at lows or home depot

There are no user servicable fuses in the machine, I believe they are talking about your breaker box.
A 220 dryer requires two 110 volt circuits to run the 220 volt heater
The motor and control circuits only require 110 and are run from only one of these two lines. If the other line blows the dryer will still run but there will be no heat.
Good Luck

Black or red is hot; green is ground; white is your neutral. The black should be for 120 and the red for 220.

If you hook it up to 120 volts (by connecting L2[red] to common [white] the dryer will operate, but your heating element will only produce 25% of the heat it would on a 220v circuit. The drying time would be about 3 hours, and the auto dry setting may not work. Heat difference is about 5000 watts of heat on 220v, vs 1250 watts on 120v circuit.
