I replaced the heating element in ge dryer mod# DBVHH520EJ2WW I'm not sure of the replacement of the wires on the sensors and the element itself where can I find a wiring diagram with color code

SOURCE: Kemore Dryer / Model # 63742

I'm not familiar with this specific Dryer, but in most of them you can find their wiring diagram glued under the upper panel or the rear panel. Good luck !

SOURCE: need a wireing diagram for

Hi,

Often the wiring diagram maybe found in the console area or under the dryer top panel. Due to regional differences in electrical code and power requirement, wiring system hence the diagram may differ. Additionally, it would also differ if you are using a 4 wire outlet or a 3 wire hookup.

At this point, perhaps your best bet would be to seek the services of a qualified professional who is very familiar with the electrical/power system of your area as well as general wiring of dryers. Should you venture a DIY, pls post back power requirements/availability whether for a 240/120 or 110/110.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

SOURCE: the wires on my heating

the 2 wires that go to the element are largest. Does not matter which one goes where. The other 2 wires are smaller and imposible to get on the wrong terminal.

I would think that:

Low voltage. A lack of proper voltage increases the current flow (amps) and can cause overheating, thus, a burnt wire. Remember, the lower the voltage, the higher the amps.

Bad connection. Poor connections can cause small amounts of arcing, thus burning the connection. This adds resistance to the circuit which causes a possible voltage drop and, again overheating due to higher amps.

Since all that equipment is on the same circuit, I would really think it is a voltage drop situation. With everything calling for power at the same time, the breaker trips. In some cases, it may be just enough for the breaker not to trip but still have a low voltage situation.

There is the possibility of an over current, such as a power spike from the power company but it would have to happen more than just a time or two.
And the outside chance that lighting got into the system when it struck something close to you home but it, in almost every case, would destroy something else, usually electronic. (This has happened to me. Trashed my dryer, dishwasher, and answering machine.)

Good luck and hope this helps. Le me know how you come out.

Yes, hook it up, but before you do that Vacuumn every piece of lint out of the cabinet. Also check TCO and check the thermostats for continuity. They should all read zero ohms.If one of them is open, replace it.

Also use your ohmmeter to check the heating element, It should not show an open condition.
