INTRODUCTION

This service manual is intended to assist you in diagnosing conditions which maydevelop. Electrical component testing is for the most part, made with an appliancetest meter and consists of checking for open or closed circuits. Mechanical checksare made through sight and sound, along with the use of a clamp-on ammeter.

This manual is designed for the technician who is familiar with the operation andconstruction of Maytag products. Information contained in this manual is intendedfor use by a qualified service technician, familiar with proper and safe proceduresto be followed when repairing an electrical appliance. All tests and repairs shouldbe performed by a qualified service technician equipped with proper tools andmeasuring devices.

SECTION 1. ELECTRICAL TEST EQUIPMENT

The equipment required to serviceMaytag products depends largely uponthe condition encountered. Locating amalfunction will often require the use ofelectrical testing equipment such as:

• Appliance Test Meter

• Clamp-on Ammeter

• Motor Test Cord

APPLIANCE TEST METER

Probably the easiest means of testingelectrical components is ~'continuity

testing" with an Appliance Test Meter.Continuity is a complete or continuouspath from one point in an electricalcircuit to another point.

The obvious advantages of being ableto check electrical components and cir­cuits without power applied is one ofthe features of the ohmmeter. Multipleranges allow accurate determination ofresistances of both single componentsand entire circuit paths. Resistance ismeasured in "ohms".

An Appliance Test Meter is a multi­purpose tester combining an AC-DCvoltage tester with a multi-rangeohmmeter.

APPLIANCE TEST METER

SET METER FOR USE AS FOLLOWS:

1. Calibrate meter by touching testprobes together and turningadjusting dial until meter reads "0"on the ohm scale. Recheck cali­bration whenever adjusting dial forohms settings is changed. (Replacebattery if adjustment will not bringmeter reading to "0".)

2. Select the scale most easily readand place test probes on respectiveterminals. When checking a switch,the reading would normally beeither open or closed. A reading of70 on the R x 10 scale would forexample be 700 ohms resistance.

~.,~"] QCAUTION ---------------,

Always be sure the power has beendisconnected before making resist­ance measurements. Failure to doso will result in damage to yourmeter! Internal batteries provide allthe power needed to make resist­ance checks. They should bechecked at least once a year andreplaced as needed.

For the most part, we will only be con­cerned with continuity. Is there a pathor not? References are made betweena "closed" (continuity) reading and an"open" (no continuity) reading. Onenote, when you get an "open" reading,try a higher resistance range (setting).A very high resistance appea~s as an"open" on the lower ranges. For bestaccuracy alw~ys "re-zero" meter whenchanging ranges and/or the physicalposition of the meter.

Continuity testing, as related to an elec-\

tricarcomponent, is the check of a partfor an "open" or "closed" circuit.

Electrical components fall into twogeneral categories.

1. Loads- Devices that use orconsume electricity: Examples

ED/GD401 1090

would include drive motor, heatingelements, lamps, timer and solenoidcoils.

2. Switches - Devices that control thesupply of electricity to the load orloads in a circuit. Examples includedoor switches, timer contacts,selector switch and relay contacts.

Continuity test of "load" devices willshow varying levels of resistance fromvery low for some transformer andmotor windings to very high for sometimer motors and components on elec­tronic control boards. Usually it ismore important to know if there is apath for current .flow through a device(continuity) than to know the exactresistance (ohms) of the device.

Continuity tests of switches will showvirtually no resistance, even low valuesindicates burned or dirty contacts in aswitch.

Continuity testing is a process of elimi­nating those electrical componentsinvolved in a given function of theappliance, until the inoperative part isfound. By reviewing the list of possibleelectrical problems under a given con­dition, and then performing appropriatecontinuity checks on the parts involved,you should be able to locate the elec­trical component which is inoperative.

When checking components or circuitpaths for continuity, external wiringshould be disconnected to eliminatefalse readings through external paths.Isolate what you want to test.

The following shows typical resistancevalues for some of the componentsfound on Maytag dryers.

Heating Element -- 10.23 ohms.

Gas Valve

Disconnect radiant sensor and igniterwires. Measure across igniter wires origniter plug from valve to get a resist­ance value of -- 425-450 ohms.

Measure across sensor wires to get aresistance of -- 450-475 ohms.

Drive Motor

Red terminal to Gray terminal -- 1.5ohms.

In order to measure the individualwindings the red and gray wires willhave to be pulled off of the start switch.

Run winding only -- 2.25 ohms.

Start Winding only -- 3 ohms.

Glow Bar Igniter

Because of the make-up of the igniter,the resistance will vary over a ratherwide range. Values from 180 ohms to400 ohms would be typical with anigniter at room temperature.

These values are provided so that youmay have an idea of the resistance thatyou can see in testing. These resist­ances are not meant to be used as theexact values to determine whether at;omponent should be replaced. They

\

are provided so that you may have anidea of the resistance that you can seein testing components.

EDIGD401 1090

CLAMP-ON AMMETER

Each circuit in an appliance has a"normal" current draw which is an indi­cation of the performance of that circuit.Current draw levels, less than or morethan normal, give clues to malfunctions.The clamp-on ammeter measures thesecurrents without breaking the circuit bymeasuring the strength of the magneticfield developed around each conductor.Current is read by separating the con­ductors and clamping the jaws of theammeter around each conductor onwhich current is to be read. Lowamperage readings indicate problemssuch as damaged heating elements,etc. High amperage readings indicatethe unit being tested is operating underan increased mechanical or electricalload.

Note: Overloads on a circuit breakeror fuse can be traced to the productbeing tested or the circuit breaker (orfuse) by checking the product's currentdraw. If the amperage reading is lessthan the breaker reading, the breakeror fuse box is at fault.

USE OF AMMETER ON DRYER

There are two currents of concern to usin an electric dryer; the heatingelement current and the drive motorcurrent. These currents can be meas­ured by use of a "split line cord" exten­sion for the dryer cord or by attachingthe ammeter to the respective powerline wires at the dryer terminal block.Current measured should be 21 ampson the heating element side of the line,24 amps on the drive motor side of theline and 4 amps on the center orneutral line.

MOTOR TEST CORD

The motor test cord may be used. toelectrically check operation of the drivemotor while still installed in the unit.Testing of the motor in this mannerdetermines whether or not it will runindependently of other electrical com­ponents.

Two test leads are required to checkoperation of the drive motor. To checkthe motor for running, hook up testcord as shown.

VOLTAGE CHECKS

For the most part these checks willconsist of taking readings at the wallreceptacle in order to delermine theavailability of voltage to the product.Voltage checks on individual compo­nents of a product are not recom­mended due to the possibility ofelectrical shock. Component parttesting is best accomplished throughcontinuity checks with an ApplianceTest Meter.

Note: Use of the meter on voltagehigher than the indicated range maycause permanent damage to the meter.To prevent damage, first select highestrange for readings which fall within thelower scale.

SET UP METER FOR USE AS FOLLOWS:

1. Turn selector knob to desired meterfunction and appropriate range.

2. Plug black lead into socket marked ­(negative).

3. Plug red lead into socket marked +(positive).

4. Place test leads into receptacle inorder to determine voltage avail­able.

CAUTION -------------------------,

Always disconnect power supply before making any continuity checks or resist­ance readings.

the electronic control becomes opera­tional as cam number two opens. Ashort time later, the timer motor is de­energized when cam number one forthe timer motor opens. It is during thisstall period that the electronic controlsystem uses the wet clothes fallingacross the sensor in the drum to dis­charge the capacitor and keep thedryer running.

There are three dryness levels; MoreDry, Normal Dry and Less Dry. Thesedryness levels have been accomplishedby placing resistors on the electroniccontrol (printed circuit board) androuting the bypass wiring accordingly.The level of resistance in the circuit ,determined by the dryness levelselected, affects the charge-up rate ofthe capacitor and accomplishes thedesired dryness level. As the clothesget dry, the capacitor is able to buildup a charge to a point where the neonbulb fires, thus triggering the gate on aSCR. When this happens, a circuit ismade through the SCR, energizing thecoil in the relay. This takes only a splitsecond and the relay's coil is then heldenergized through a set of contacts inthe relay.

Also, when the coil in the relay is ener­gized, the timer motor is activatedthrough another set of contacts in therelay. The timer advances and openscam number three for the heater andthe dryer begins a timer controlled

CAUTION

cool-down period. The amount of cool­down time will depend upon the cycleselected: Regular - 6 minutes,Permanent-Press - 13 minutes andPermanent-Press with Press Care - 33minutes. NOTE: These times areapproximate. The timer then advancesto where cam number 1A opens, de­energizing the drive motor and thecycle ends.

TROUBLESHOOTING

When the dryer does not go into cool­down and shut off with dry clothes, youneed to know whether you have acontrol problem or a sensor problem.Troubleshooting the electronic controlis made easier if we break the circuitdown into parts. We can separate thetwo parts by disconnecting the W-BUwire in the control panel at the plasticcoupler. The upper part contains theelectronic control assembly which con­sists of the edgeboard connectorassembly, printed circuit boardassembly and relay. The lower partconsists of the sensor assembly locatedon the tumbler front bulkhead.

Separating the two areas by pulling thewires apart at the coupler will showwhere the problem is located. If thedryer is started without any clothes inthe drum and shuts off in about 20minutes without the sensor circuithooked up, then the sensor must bekeeping the dryer from shutting off.

Always disconnect power supply before making any continuity checks or resist­ance readings.

NOTE: This amount of time is forRegular Fabrics on a Less Dry setting.A setting of Normal Dry or More Drywill add more time before the dryershuts off. If the dryer does not shut off,then the problem is in the electroniccontrol assembly.

Sensor Assembly

1. Disconnect power supply.

2. Remove front panel.

3. Remove wires going to the sensorbars.

4. Check with ohmmeter to make surethere is NO continuity across thesensor bars. If you have continuityacross the sensor bars the capacitorcannot build a charge, it will contin­ually bleed off.

CAUTION

Always disconnect power supplybefore making continuity orresistance checks.

5. Check to make sure the sensor bar(the one not connected to cabinetground) is not shorted to cabinetground. If this sensor bar has aleakage path to cabinet ground, thecapacitor cannot build a cllarge andwill continually bleed off. Useohmmeter to ~heck from sensor barto cabinet ground.

Electronic Control Assembly

If dryer does not go into cool-down andshut off with the sensor disconnectedthe problem is in the electronic controlassembly. While the dryer is running,observe the neon bulb on the electroniccontrol (printed circuit board). Whenthe capacitor reaches approximately 72volts, the neon bulb "fires" (flashes),the SCR conducts, the relay coil isenergized and the contacts in the relayclose.

If neon bulb "FIRES" but timer doesnot advance (timer motor is not ener­gized):

1. Check relay coil for continuity orresistance.

A. Disconnect power supply.

B. Remove BK and BR wires fromrelay (refer to electrical wiringdiagram).

C. Attach meter leads across theseterminals and complete check. Ifchecking resistance, you should seeabout 2200 ohms of resistance. Nocontinuity, replace relay.

2. Check continuity across contactsO-BK to RD in relay. When closed,this set of contacts is used to keepthe coil energized.

A. Disconnect power supply.

B. Remove wires O-BK and RDfrom relay.

CAUTION --------------------------,

Always disconnect po~er supply before making any continuity checks orresistance readings.

1. Check capacitor.

A. Disconnect power supply.

B. Remove electronic control(printed circuit board).

C. Set ohmmeter to an ohm scale,such as Rx100.

D. Place meter leads into openingsin the edgeboard connector wherecapacitor leads terminate. First,make sure you have discharged thecapacitor by shorting the leads. Usea piece of insulated wire with theends stripped.

E. Needle should deflect to one sideand then slowly drop back to zero.

F. Failure to deflect the needlewould indicate an open capacitor.Failure of the needle to drop backwould indicate a shorted capacitor.Replace edgeboard connectorassembly.

MICROPROCESSOR BOARDCONTROL MODELS

The microprocessor board receivesinput information from the various com­ponents involved with the operation ofthe dryer; such as the dryness sensorand the thermistor. It uses this infor­mation to determine the necessarycontrol for the completion of the cycle.

One of the ways it accomplishes this isthrough the use of control relays. Acontrol relay (S.P.S.T.) is placed in themotor circuit for both the gas and elec­tric dryer. Another relay (S.P.S.T.) isplaced in the heat circuit for the electricdryer only. With these relays themicroprocessor board is capable ofusing a low voltage circuit to control ahigh voltage circuit. We can call thesetwo circuits the control circuit and thecontrolled circuit. NOTE: The controlfor the gas dryer's gas valve circuit isdifferent and is covered later.

The control circuit for the drive motorconsists of the microprocessor boardand the Motor Relay's coil. The con­trolled circuit for the drive motor con­sists of the Motor Relay's switchcontacts, thermal fuse and cut-off drive,motor and door switch. The micro­processor board starts the drive motorby sending 24 VDC to the MotorRelay's coil. When energized, the coilcreates a magnetic field that closes the

CAUTION

switch contacts in the relay and pro­vides a path for voltage to the motor.When the microprocessor board deter­mines it needs to stop the motor, itremoves the 24 VDC to the relay's coil.The switch returns to its normally openposition and the path for voltage to themotor is opened.

The control circuit and controlled circuitfor the heating element on the electricdryer operate on the same principle asthe motor relay's circuits. When themicroprocessor board wants to ener­gize the heating element it sends 24VDC to the coil in the Heater Relay anda path for voltage is completed throughthe switch contacts to the heatingelement. When the 24 VDC areremoved from the coil the switch con­tacts open and the path for voltage tothe heating element is opened.

When trying to determine what iscausing the problem (drive motor willnot run or heating element will notcome on), separate the two circuits toisolate the problem area. Start with thecontrol circuit (it has to function beforethe controlled circuit will work). Deter­mine what is involved in this circuit andproceed to check the components. Ifthese components are found to be func­tioning correctly, focus on the con­trolled circuit. Determine what isinvolved and proceed in checking thecomponents.

Always disconnect power supply before making any continuity checks or resist­ance readings.

DRYER (MICROPROCESSORBOARD CONTROL)

A microprocessor board provides thecontrol for this dryer. It accomplishesthis control with several components.The components involved are the trans­former, thermistor, control relays,dryness sensor and lint filter switch.

To start the dryer the user selects thedesired program by pressing the indi­cated pad on the menu. There are 17of these pads from which the user canselect the programs and options for thedryer. Behind the pads are actuators(push rods) that activate switches onthe microprocessor board to initiate theprogram and options. NOTE: Anoption can be selected only after aprogram has been selected.

No test board is available to checkmicroprocessors. Therefore, all othercomponents in this section should bechecked first. If no problem is found,replace microprocessor.

TRANSFORMER

A step-down transformer, consisting ofa primary winding and three secondarywindings, is used to provide the neces­sary voltages to the microprocessorboard. The primary side of the trans­former receives the voltage (120 voltsmeasure across L1 and Neutral). Thetransformer then steps this voltagedown through the secondary windingsinto the voltages needed to power the

microprocessor board and provide thevoltages that the microprocessor boarduses to control or operate the variousfunctions of the dryer. The output volt­ages on the secondary side are 20.7VAC, 22.6 VAC and 3.8 VAC (thiswinding has a center tap that provides1.9 VAC when measured from thecenter tap to either of the outsideleads).

VARISTOR

The varistor is a semiconductor device(solid state) connected across theprimary input terminals on the trans­former. Its function is to protect themicroprocessor board against voltagesurges or spikes. The resistance of thevaristor decreases as the voltageacross it increases. If the voltageexceeds the "threshold" of the varistor,its resistance will decrease rapidly tothe point of providing a short circuitacross the primary terminals. This maytrip circuit breaker or open fuse ordestroy varistor. If varistor isdamaged, replace transformer.

TYPES OF CONTROLS

There are four basic types of controlsused to determine the operating time ofMaytag dryers; they are Timer, Auto­matic Control, Electronic Control andMicroprocessor.

Timer Control

These models utilize an electrical timerwhich the user sets to the number ofminutes recommended in the operatinginstructions or as experience indicatesnecessary.

The timer knob and dial are attached tothe timer shaft. At the other end of theshaft is a cam which controls both thedrying time and the cool-down.

With the timer set at 20 minutes asshown in the drawing the circuit is com­pleted through the timer to the drivemotor and heater circuit.

ED/GD401 1090

The auto dry models operate on theprinciple that as long as the load beingdried is damp, and rapid evaporation istaking place, the temperature of thedryer and exhaust air will remain rela­tively low. It also follows that as theload gives up moisture and the rate ofevaporation slows down, less BTU's orheat is used in evaporation and thetemperature of the load and exhaust air

At the beginning of the cycle the load isdamp, the heat input is used up inevaporation of the moisture and thereis little increase in the air temperature.As the load becomes drier, less heat isused up in evaporation and the temper­ature of the load and exhaust air startsto rise. The exhaust air is beingpushed over the regulating thermostatand as the temperature of the exhaustair rises so does that of the thermostat.Once the thermostat reaches a temper­ature of approximately 1400 F the circuitis broken to the heat source and at thesame time is completed to the timermotor.

When the timer is set to a degree ofdryness, the circuit is completed to theheat source and the drive motor. Thedifference between this control and a,standard timer operated dryer is thefact that the timer motor is not initiallyin the circuit. To see how the controlworks, let's assume that the load to bedried is a normal load with the gar­ments of somewhat uniform weight, theauto regular setting is selected and thedial set on the middle mark between"more dry" and "less dry".

As indicated in the timer schematicbelow, the maximum timer controlleddrying time on an auto-dry regularsetting is approximately 31 minutesplus a five"minute cool-down. Since weset the dial to the middle mark we haveset the timer at about the mid point orfor approximately 15 minutes of timeddry.

Each time the thermostat cycles theheat period is shorter and the heat off(timer motor on) time is longer.

As the temperature of the tumbler, theitems being dried and the exhaust airdecrease, so does the temperature ofthe thermostat. When the thermostatcools to a temperature of approximately1250 F. the thermostat returns to itsnormal position breaking the circuit tothe timer motor and again completingthe circuit to the heating element or gasvalve.

A selection of the middle mark is agood starting point. Experience gainedfrom drying a few loads will enable theoperator to pick a point, either more orless dry, which is most pleasing. Oncethis point is determined, it can be usedfor most loads as the automatic control,based upon time and temperature, willautomatically adjust itself to the size ofload.

Note: The temperatures quoted are theoperating temperatures of the thermo­stat and not the temperature of theclothing or exhaust air. Because of itsmass, the thermostat will heat up andcool down slower than the air temper­ature.

THERMOSTATS

THERMOSTATS

There are three different kinds of ther­mostats in these dryers.

1. Bi-Metal type~

2. Resistance type (Multi-temperature).

3. Thermal Fuse type.

All react essentially to temperature withdirect effect on heat on or heat off func­tions of a dryer.

To remove those located on blowercover:

1. Remove 2 screws from Front Paneland swing panel out.

2. Remove wires from thermostat.

3. Remove screws securing thermostatto cover.

1600 THERMOSTAT - MicroprocessorModels

Bi-Metal Type

The 160° thermostat functions as a backup to the thermistor. It is mounted onthe blower cover. The thermistor, inconjunction with the microprocessorboar~ and heater relay, is used tocontrol the cycling of the temperaturebetween 135°F and 155°F. The 160°thermostat is placed in series with thegas valve I heating element and willopen the heat circuit in the event thethermistor fails to open the circuit attemperatures above 155°F.

ED/GD401 1090

To remove the 1600 thermostat:

1. Disconnect power supply.

2. Remove front panel.

3. Remove the thermostat covermounted to the base (electric dryeronly).

4. Disconnect wires from the thermo­stat.

5. Remove the two screws securing thethermostat to the blower cover.

To check the 1600 thermostat:

CAUTION ----------,

Always disconnect power supplybefore making continuity or resist­ance checks.

Check for continuity across thermostatat room temperature. Attach meteracross terminals BK and PU. No conti­nuity, replace.

THERMISTOR - Microprocessor Models

Resistance Type

The thermistor is a semiconductordevice (solid state) that has a negativetemperature coefficient of resistance;its resistance decreases as its temper­ature increases and vice versa. Thethermistor functions as the "sensingcontrol" for the dryer's heat circuit. No..cycling thermostat is used. It ismounted on the blower cover and is

connected to the microprocessor boardthrough edgeboard connector CC (referto schematic). Mounted on the blowercover puts the thermistor in the air flowof the air being exhausted from thedrum. The increasing or decreasingtemperature of the exhausted airchanges the resistance of thethermistor. The microprocessor boarduses this input information to controlthe heat circuit. On the electric dryerthe microprocessor board controls the24 DC voltage to the heater relay, onthe gas dryer it controls the L1 side ofthe power supply through edgeboardconnector BB (refer to schematic).

To remove thermistor:

1. Disconnect power supply.

2. Remove front panel.

3" Remove the thermostat covermounted to the base (electric dryeronly).

4. Remove the two wires, PK-BK andPK-BK, from the thermistor.

5. Remove the two screws that attachthe thermistor to the blower cover.

ED/GD401 1090

Check the thermistor:

1. Remove the two wires on thethermistor, PK-BK and PK-BK.

2. Place ohm meter across these wiresand check resistance of thethermistor. At room temperature,77°F, you should read about 10,000ohms. At 140°F you should readabout 1750 ohms.

Note: Do not check with line voltage(120 VAC), the thermistor is part of thelow voltage circuitry.

THERMAL FUSES

The function of the thermal fuse andthermal cut-off is to stop the dryer inthe event an over heating conditionshould occur. The electric dryer has athermal fuse mounted on the right sideof the heat cone and a thermal cut-offmounted on the blower cover. The gasdryer has a thermal cut-off mounted onthe blower cover. Both are referred toas "thermal fuse" on the electricalschematic. The thermal fuse and cut-offare placed in series with the drivemotor. If one of these should open, thedrive motor will stop and the circuitthrough the centrifugal switch for thegas valve / heating element will alsoopen, breaking the heat circuit. Thethermal fuse and thermal cut-off are notinterchangeable or resettable and mustbe replaced after the over heatingproblem is corrected.

Note: If one of these thermal devicesopens, it indicates something hascaused an unusual amount of heat tobuild up around the device. If thishappens, depending on the model,REPLACE the hi-limit thermostat andcycling thermostat or the hi-limit ther-

The gas controls utilize a direct ignitionsystem (there is no pilot light). Thethree major components of the gas are:Igniter, Radiant Sensor and Gas Valve.

1. IGNITER -- When the controls callfor heat, line voltage is applied tothe igniter. This causes the igniterto heat up becoming cherry red. Itcan reach a temperature of approxi­mately 2200° F in about 30 seconds.

ED/GD401 1090

Gas contacting igniter at this tem­perature will ignite immediately.

2. RADIANT SENSOR -- The radiantsensor operates much like a regularthermostat. It is mounted to theside of the combustion cone over anopening which exposes the sensorto the igniter and burner flame.

In its normal condition, the contactsin the radiant sensor are closed andthe circuit is completed to the

igniter. As the igniter heats up, theheat radiated by the igniter causesthe radiant sensor contacts to openbreaking the circuit to the igniter.

3. GAS VALVE -- The gas valve isactually two gas valves, one inseries with the other. This is asafety feature providing added pro­tection against gas released in theevent of a failure of one of thevalves to seat properly.

The first valve is opened byasolenoid which has two separatecoils built into one solenoid. Thissolenoid uses what is termed a splitcoil. The coils are referred to as theholding coil and the booster coil.

BOOSTERCOIL

Both coils are needed to lift thearmature and open the valve. Theholding coil is strong enough to

\

, keep the valve open once the arma-ture has been lifted.

The second of the two valves isoperated by the traditional one coilsolenoid. This is called a secondarycoil.

SECONDARYCOIL

First, note on the wiring diagram thatthe radiant sensor contacts are wiredacross the secondary coil. This effec­tively bypasses current around the sec­ondary coil when the radiant sensor

contacts are closed. Valve 2 cannotopen with the radiant sensor contactsclosed.

The booster coil and the igniter arealso wired in parallel. Note that whilethese two components are in parallelwith each other, they are wired inseries with the radiant sensor and sec­ondary coil combination. When theradiant sensor contacts are closed, fullline voltage is available to the boostercoil and to the igniter. When theradiant sensor contacts open currenthas to flow through the secondary coilon Valve 2 in order to get to thebooster coil and to the igniter. A signif­icant voltage drop develops across thesecondary coil. While the parallelbooster coil and igniter are still in thecircuit, they become ineffective due tothe greatly reduced voltage available tothem.

Operation: Dryer controls calling forheat.

PHASE I

Power reaches the valve assembly bymeans of the Molex wiring connector.The black valve harness wire isnormally the "hot" side of the line andthe red is normally the neutral side ofthe line and is completed through themotor centrifugal switch.

\Radiant sensor contacts clo~ed.

The holding coil, booster coil andigniter all receive line voltage. Theholding coil and booster coil develop

ED/GD401 1090

the necessary magnetic pull to openValve 1. The igniter, operating at linevoltage, begins to get very hot. Theheat radiated by the igniter affects theelement of the radiant sensor.

IGNITER

Because the secondary coil on Valve 2is bypassed by the radiant sensor con­tacts, Valve 2 remains closed and pre­vents the release of gas.

PHASE /I

The igniter is now hot and Valve NO.1is open. With the igniter hot, two thingsoccur:

1. As the igniter is heated, its resist­ance decreases.

2. The heat from the igniter causes theradiant sensor switch to open.

PHASE 11/

Valve 1 is being held open by theholding coil and with the radiant sensorcontacts open because of the intenseheat from the igniter, the current pathsin the circuit change.

Because of the very low resistanceof the hot igniter, most of the linevoltage is dropped across the sec­ondary coil. Only a small per­centage is dropped across thebooster coil and igniter.

ED/GD401 1090

2. The secondary coil now opens Valve2 releasing gas across the stillextremely hot igniter. The burnerflame is ignited.

While the igniter will cool, the tip ispositioned in the burner flame whichkeeps it hot and the resistance low.

The ignition cycle is now completedand the drying cycle begins.

The gas valve as shipped with the dryeror for repair is set for use with naturalgas, Because of differences in oper­ating pressure and heat content ofother gases, the valve must be con­verted to use fuels other than naturalgas.

Conversion kits are available to convertfrom natural to L.P.G. and back fromL.P.G. to natural. Check parts catalogfor correct part number.

SECTION 4. PRE-INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

LOCATING DRYER

Dryer should be located as close to the washer as possible, considering availabilityof gas, electricity and location that makes exhausting practical.

For proper operation, it is important to make sure the room where dryer is locatedhas adequate make-up air. This is especially important in any areas such asbedroom, bathroom or closet.

On gas dryers, adequate clearance must be maintained to insure adequate air forcombustion and proper operation of the dryer. The area where the dryer is locatedmust not obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilating air. When locating a Maytagdryer, the following dimensions should be taken into consideration.

When installing the dryer the following minimum clearances to combustibles shallapply: clearance to wall: sides - 0 inches, top - 0 inches with outside exhaust, rear- 0 inches with outside exhaust, 6 inches with inside exhaust.

EXHAUSTING

DO NOT EXHAUST DRYER INTO ANYWALL, CEILING, CRAWL SPACE OR ACONCEALED SPACE OF A BUILDING,VENT CONNECTION, GAS VENT ORCHIMNEY. THIS COULD CREATE AFIRE HAZARD FROM LINT EXPELLEDBY THE DRYER. FOR THE SAMEREASON, WE RECOMMEND ONLYMETAL EXHAUST DUCT TO MINIMIZERESTRICTED AIR FLOW AND RELI­ABLY INSURE THE CONTAINMENT OFEXHAUST AIR, HEAT AND LINT.NEVER INSTALL A SCREEN OVEREXHAUST OUTLET. NEVER USEPLASTIC OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLEDUCTWORK. FREQUENTLY CHECKAND CLEAN VENT HOOD TO ASSUREPROPER OPERATION.

A clothes dryer produces combustiblelint and the area around the clothesdryer should be kept free of lint. It isrecommended that the dryer beexhausted to the outside using 4" rigidor flexible metal ducting.

When located in a bedroom, bathroomor closet, the dryer must be exhaustedto the outside of the dwelling.

Once location of the exhaust outlet isdetermined, a 4 1/4" hole should be cutin the wall to accept the exhaust hood.To permit sufficient air circulationunder the exhaust hood, there shouldbe no less than a 12" clearancebetween the bottom of the exhausthood'and the ground. When possible,the exhaust hood should not exhaust

ED/GD401 1090

directly into a window well. DO NOTTERMINATE EXHAUST UNDER AHOUSE OR PORCH.

Note: Where the exhaust hood is to beinstalled through masonry, a specialmasonry saw is necessary to cut thehole.

Install the exhaust hood and securewith screws to the outside wall and sealwith caulking compound.

The exhaust hood may also be installedthrough a window by installing awindow plate. Window plates are avail­able. Install as shown.

Install ductwork from the dryer toexhaust hood. All joints must be madeso exhaust end of one pipe is inside theintake end of next pipe. On flexiblemetal ductwork, all joints should besecured with a clamp. DO NOT usesheet metal screws when assemblingrigid ducting. These should be taped.

FLEXIBLE DUCTWORK L1MITA TlONS

Flexible metal ductwork should notexceed 34' of straight 4" ducting. Theexhaust hood is equivalent to 8' of ductand each 90 degree bend is equivalentto 8'. As an example, if an exhausthood is used and two 90 degree bends,the maximum straight run would be 10'.

Note: If the radius of a bend with 4"duct is 12" or greater, the bend can beconsidered a straight run. No morethan three 90 degree bends should beused in any run with an exhaust hood.

RIGID DUCTWORK LIMITATIONS

Rigid metal ductwork should notexceed 50' of straiglit 4" duct. Each 90degree elbow and the exhaust hoodshould be considered equivalent to 8''a{ straight ductwork. For example, if anexhaust hood and two 90 degreeelbows are used, the maximum straightduct allowed would be 26'. Not morethan three 90 degree elbows should beused in any rigid ductwork run with anexhaust hood. Four feet of straight

ED/GD401 1090

duct should be allowed between 90degree elbows.

GUIDE FOR PROPER EXHAUSTING

1. Keep the duct as short as possible.The longer the duct the more frictionand resistance to air flow.

2. Keep the number of elbows and thedegree of bend to a minimum tominimize air resistance due todynamics. We recommend that notover 3 elbows be installed in theduct.

3. The smoother the inside sUrfa~e ofthe duct, the less the friction and thegreater the air flow. It is because ofthis that we recommend usingsmooth rigid aluminum ductwork.Flexible ductwork has a spiralwashboard surface which increasesfriction and sets up dynamic turbu­lence which decreases air flow.

4. Never reduce the area of the duct.A 4" round duct has an area ofapproximately 12.57 square inches.The area of the duct should neverbe reduced below this figure.

5. Dryers should be exhausted to theoutside of the building.

6. Do not exhaust dryer into any wall,ceiling, crawl space, a concealedspace of a bUilding, vent connection,gas vent or chimney. A lint accumu­lation in such an area creates a firehazard.

7. When located in a bedroom,bathroom or closet, the dryer mustbe exhausted to the outside of thedwetring.

8. Do not install vent hood at groundlevel. There should be a 12"(30.5cm) clearance between the

9. All exhaust duct joints should betaped to prevent lint and moistureladen air from being expelled intothe building.

10. The exhaust duct and vent hoodshould be checked periodically andcleaned as necessary to prevent alint build-up.

NOTE No.2

The figures for flexible duct apply onlyto the flexible metal duct. For othertypes of flexible ducts, refer to man­ufacturer's design data concerning airfriction loss. Friction 1055 in inches ofwater, as measured by a manometer,should never exceed .58" of watercolumn.

LEFT SIDE OR BASE EXHAUST

If dryer is to be exhausted out the leftside or through base, use the acces­sory 304652 exhaust kit, instructionsare included with the kit.

oNonexhausted Installations

Always exhaust gas dryers to theoutside.

NOTE -------------,

IN CANADA, ALL DRYERS MUST BEEXHAUSTED TO THE OUTSIDE.

If the installer has determined that anonexhausted installation will be made,a 303736 exhaust deflector should beIn,stalled. Maintain a 6/1 clearancebetween the back of the control paneland the wall.

Note: A dacron mesh lint bag, Part No.3011353, is available for use on nonex-

hausted installations. Although the lintscreen and the lint bag will retain mostof the lint expelled, a certain amount ofline will be expelled into the laundryarea. AN ACCUMULATION OF LINTCREATES A FIRE HAZARD. THERE­FORE, FREQUENT CLEANING OR VAC­UUMING OF THE LINT ACCUMULATIONIS NECESSARY.

ADDITIONAL FACTS ABOUTEXHAUSTING

These large capacity Maytag dryers aredesigned to move 180 cubic feet of airper minute. As exhaust ducting isadded, it imposes resistance to the flowof air which must be overcome by thedryer exhaust fan. This resistance isdue to static, velocity and dynamicpressure which is expressed in inchesof water column as measured by amanometer.

There are two types of pressure losses:

1. Static or friction losses and

2. Velocity or dynamic losses.

Static or friction losses. (We will referto this as friction.)

Friction losses are caused by the actualrubbing of the air molecules along thesides of the duct. Pressure losses instraight runs of duct are referred to asfriction losses. The pressure woulddrop due to friction losses betweenpoints 1 and 2 of the duct in the fol­lowing drawing.

SECTION 4. PRE-INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS 4-5

~_3 _

------_/

Dynamic losses result from air turbu­lence which occur when the air flowchanges direction or when there is achange in the cross-section area of theduct.

1. A change of cross-sectional area i5illustrated in the above drawing.The reducer deceases the cross­sectional area which increases thevelocity and results in dynamicpressure loss. The amount of fric­tion through a reducer variesdirectly with the square of thevelocity of air. This simply meansthat the resistance through areducer is very high as compared toa straight run of duct.

Proper operation and efficientdrying is dependent upon proper airflow. The dryer is designed for useof a 4" duct and reductions in theduct are not recommended.

2..Dynamics\

Between 2 and 3 in the drawing, areducer has been added to the duct.

ED/GD401 1090

The reducer opposes the air flow·and sets up air turbulence whichresults in a pressure loss.

There are many factors influencingair flow such as the considerationslisted under Guide for ProperExhausting. In addition to theseitems, the operator's practices alsoaffect air flow, efficiency and theresulting drying times.

A. Failure to clean the lint filterregularly will result in a reduction inair flow and will cause the dryer totake longer to dry the clothes.

B. Overloading restricts proper airflow through the drum which willalso decrease efficiency and extendthe dry time.

ADJUSTING MAIN BURNER

To adjust main burner flame, loosenscrew holding air shutter and rotateshutter until a yellow flame appears.Then reverse the rotation of the shutteruntil the yellow disappears and theburner has a steady blue flame. Toachieve this, it may be necessary toadjust the flame until only a very smallyellow flame is at the tip of the blueflame. After a period of about fiveminutes, all of the yellow should disap­pear. If not, readjust the shutterslightly. When the desired results areachieved, tighten the screw to lock theshutter in place.

SECTION 4. PRE-INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS 4-10

Page 81: Maytag - ApplianceAssistant.comapplianceassistant.com/ServiceManuals/16000132_maytag_1990... · Maytag products depends largely upon the condition encountered. Locating a malfunction

U.S. Models - 120/240 volt or 120/208volt

Maytag electric dryers are manufac­tured to operate on 120/240 volt, 60 HzAC approved electrical service. Shouldthe dryer be operated on a 208 voltelectrical system, the dryer must beconverted. A heating element kit isavailable, Part No. 304837, which isused to convert the dryer from 240 voltto a 208 volt system.

The circuit should be fused through a30 amp fuse or comparable circuitbreaker, on both sides of the line. Theservice cord receptacle should bewired with no smaller than a No. 10wire and be sure a strain relief is used. 2. The neutral line of the service cord

must always be connected to the P2service post. The two 120 volt linesof the service cord then go to the P1and P3 terminal block posts asshown.

120V

N.

120V

Note: The service cord is not providedw-lth electric model dryers. Connect thepower cord as follows:

1. Remove the terminal block coverplate on the back panel of the dryerto gain access to the terminal block.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONMOBILE HOME INSTALLA TION

ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLA TlON

When the dryer is to be installed in analcove area or a closet, clearanceshould be provided around the dryerfor an adequate air supply and for easeof installation and servicing. Clear­ances for the companion automaticwasher should also be considered. Anappliance installed in a closet shallhave no other fuel burning applianceinstalled in the same closet. The dryermust be exhausted to the outside tominimize excessive lint accumulationand to maintain good drying. Werecommend allowance for more clear­ance than the minimum installationclearances as shown.

Make Up Air Openings.

Each opening area must have aminimum of 36 square inches ( more isbetter). These openings must not beobstructed. (Louvered door with equiv­alent air opening is acceptable.)

Maytag dryers are certified by theAmerican Gas Association and bearinga label stating they are suitable forinstallation in mobile homes. Wheninstalled in mobile homes, the installa­tion must conform to the ManufacturedHome Construction and SafetyStandard Title 24 CRF, Part 32-80.

When installing a dryer in a mobilehome, provisions for anchoring thedryer should be made. An anchorbracket kit is available, Part No. 303740.Instructions for installing the anchorbrackets are contained in each kit.

All mobile home installations must beexhausted to the outside with theexhaust duct termination securely fas­tened to the mobile home structure,using materials that will not supportcombustion. Exhaust the dryer usingflexible metal exhausting materials, andlocate in an area that provides ade­quate make-up air. The exhaust ductmay not terminate beneath the mobilehome.

With a gas dryer, to prevent the possi­bility of hazard due to electrical shock,never plug dryer electric cord into areceptacle which is not adequatelygrounded and in accordance with localand national codes. See installationinstructions with dryer.

Electrical dryers with a UL symbol onthe data plate have been listed withUnderwriters' Laboratories, Inc.; thosewith a CSA symbol on the data platehave been listed with Canadian Stand­ards Association. Gas dryers with anA.G.A. symbol on the data plate havebeen listed with The American GasAssociation; those with a CGA symbolon the data plate have been listed withthe Canadian Gas Association. Never­theless, as with any equipment usingelectrical and moving parts, there is apotential hazard. To use this appliancesafely, the operator should becomefamiliar with the instructions for opera­tion of the dryer and always exercisecare while using the appliance.

1. To avoid possibility of fire or explo­sion:

A. Items containing foam rubber(may also be labeled Latex foam) orfoam rubber-like materials must notbe dried on a heat setting. Foamrubber materials, when heated, canunder certain circumstancesproduce fire by spontaneous com­bustion.

B. Any material on which youhave used a cleaning solvent, orwhich is saturated with flammableliquids or solids, should not beplaced in the dryer until all traces ofthese flammable liquids or solidsand their fumes have been removed.There are many highly flammableitems used in homes, such as:acetone, denatured alcohol, gaso­line, kerosene, some liquid house­hold cleaners, some spot removers,turpentine, waxes and waxremovers.

ED/GD4011090

2. CHILDREN SHOULD NEVER BE PER­MITTED TO OPERATE, OR PLAY IN,WITH OR AROUND THIS DRYER.
