Maytag MDE17CS - Motor Circuit Test

6-5
In a similar way, check for continuity (0 Ω)
between the L1 terminal of the plug and
black wire at the harness connection.
• If there is continuity (0 Ω), go to step 8.
• If there is no continuity, check for continuity
(0 Ω) of the power cord in a similar way to
that illustrated in step 5, but for power cord’s
L1 wire.
• If an open circuit (infinite Ω) is found,
replace the power cord. Otherwise, go to
step 7.
Replace the main harness.
For stack dryers, continue through Step 14.
Visually check that the transformer is
connected to the UIC at AA6 and no wires
are loose in the connector.
Visually check that the P2 connector is
inserted all the way into the dryer CCU
control board.
Visually check that all UIC connections are
tight and all wires secured into connectors.
If all of the visual checks pass, reinstall the
console electronics, housing assembly, and
all parts and panels before operating.
Plug in dryer or reconnect power.
Perform the Diagnostic Test to verify repair.
If indicators do not light, the dryer UIC
electronics has failed:
• Unplug dryer or disconnect power.
• Replace the dryer UIC.
• Reinstall all the parts and panels before
operating.
• Plug in dryer or reconnect power.
• Perform Diagnostic Test to verify repair.
