Hi Tom. If you feel comfortable taking the dryer apart, this will be necessary to complete the repair. In most cases there is a thermostat that sometimes blows. The fuse will blow if there is not proper airflow. It is very important to clean out any lint build up that may of built up over the years in the blower housing. UNPLUG UNIT FROM WALL BEFORE SERVICING. First you will need to pop the top of the dryer up by using a putty knife on the very left and right side of the door to prop the top of the dryer up on the hinges. Next there is 2 screws holding on the front of the unit on the left and right side of the front panel. After removing the front panel you will need to remove the drum by reaching back under the drum and releasing the tension on idler pulley and removing the belt. Remove the drum. Next you will need to inspect the thermostat and check it for continuity. There may be a few different fuses to checks. If thermostat is OK, Check the heating element. Using a multimeter set to ohms, check element for continuity.
Attached is links to both the element and thermostat. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
Thanks! Tony-AceTech52

Stu, your model number is not a complete model. In most cases the plastic cover has clips and the clips depress releasing the cover. If you cannot find any screws try depressing the cover and releasing it. Matt Ace technician

Scott, See video links below. Matt Ace Technician

Brunobb, in most cases on an overheating problem can be caused by
1) A plugged dryer vent
2) A cycling thermostat
3) A shorted electric heater to ground

Shawn, see attached parts link below along with two video’s related to your model on a no heat microwave. Matt Ace technician

Lauren, I think you are talking about the auger dispenser motor. You can check it by a volt meter you should have 115 volts, or watch the videos I have linked below. Matt Ace technician

Idan, you need a new door cam kit. Call the parts department 1-800-830-5465 and they can ship you one.Matt Ace technician

Jim, the F34 code means the fan is running at an incorrect high or low speed. This error code indicates a motor issue. If you replaced both exhaust fans you may have a voltage issues coming from the board. So you either have a bad exhaust motor or board issue. The next step is to check power to each exhaust motor if incorrect voltage from nameplate voltage on motor replace the power board. Matt Ace technician

Dan, see video links below to correct this issue. Matt Ace technician

Mike, I have evaluated the information above you have provided. It all seems to be normal. My next question is leaking the unit run 24 hours without opening it what are your fresh food and freezer temperatures ? You should have a freezer temperature of -5 to +8 degrees on the middle control setting. The fresh food should be at +37 to +45 degrees . If you are getting these temperatures the unit is running normal and functioning properly. Remember on the new energency efficient refrigerators the run on low voltage DC for evaporator and condenser motors and use little to no electricity. The compressor has an inverter board that runs a variable speed compressor. This compressor runs longer but uses much less electricity that its older counterpart. It is engineered to run almost 90% of the time at a very low amprege. Compressors in the old days used to start and stop every 10-15 minutes and the starting amprege was 12-15 amps, and then run at 4-6 amps. The new variable speed compressor starts at less than 3-amps and runs at .08 amps. So if you are not freezing food in the refrigerator section and the freezer is keeping good temperatures you have a functioning unit with no issues. Matt Ace technician

Hi. I have attached a video that will show you how to enter diagnostic mode and see what error codes the unit has stored. Once we find out what the error codes are we can go from there. The tech sheet should be located on the left side of the front panel after you lift up the top panel.

Hello. When I have came across a tripped thermal fuse on this type of dryer I have found a grounded heat element causing the fuse to trip. Clogged venting can also cause this to happen as well as a faulty blower motor. I would have the element checked. I have attached a link to the element.

Hi. It does sound like your door latch is the problem. You will have to use some force to open the door. Try pushing the door to one side while pulling. I have attached a repair video and a link to purchase the door latch. Let me know if you need any further assistance.

HI. Your themistor reading you got is with in range. It is testing good. I would check that you have 240v at your terminal block at the back of the unit. Make sure your wiring is not damaged. Then unplug the unit again and make sure you have plugged back in everything you have tested. I have attached the next step in that is listed in the tech sheet below.

1. remove the P14
   (P4 on Amana models) connector, then measure
   the resistance between P14-3 (P4-3 on Amana
   models) (red wire) and P14-6 (P4-6 on Amana
   models) (red wire) at the connector. See figure 16,
   page 22, for connector location; and Accessing &
   Removing the Electronic Assemblies, page 21.
   If 5–15 kΩ are measured,replace the
   machine control electronics.
   If the resistance is less than 1 kΩ,replace
   the outlet thermistor.

Another test you can perform is checking the heat relay at the board. The heat relay will be a black box with 2 wires going to it. A red wire and a black wire. Put your meter terminals on each terminal of the relay (with wires attached). You should read 120 or 240 volts with the dryer off. Select a heat cycle on the dryer on turn it on. If the relay is working and closes you should read 0 volts on your meter as long as there is continuity through the heat circuit. IF so your relay is working. Attached is a link for your control board if you need it.
