repair guy diagnosed that we need a new user interface.
Got it online cheaper lots cheaper than he quoted.
Now how do I install it? It looks like you just plug in 2 ribbons, but I don't know how to open the panel on the dryer.
If you're talking about the interface control board behind the front panel, this is a fairly simple repair. Just follow these steps:
1. Unplug the dryer.
2. Remove the top panel by locating and removing the three screws that hold the panel in place in the rear of the dryer. With the screws removed, the panel will slide back, then lift off.
3. With the top panel removed, locate the EOC board (main control board mounted on the left hand side of the drum) and remove the access cover.
4. Carefully remove the two small ribbon cables that run from the Interface Board to the EOC. NOTE: You may have to remove the EOC for better access. If you do, make sure you handle with care and don't stress the cables. Some of these connectors will have a small release tab you have to push in order to get the connector to come apart. So, if it doesn't come apart, don't force it - check for a release tab. Also, use care when handling the ribbon cables, they can be fragile.
5. With the ribbon cables disconnected from the EOC, remove the screws holding the operator console in place and lift the entire assembly straight up. This will allow you to work on the panel on a bench top or table top.
6. Lay the operator console face down and carefully remove the old Interface board and ribbon cables.
7. Install your new board being careful not to handle the board components. Some of these circuit cards are static sensitive. Try to only handle the edges of the board.
If you have any questions about this repair, or need additional assistance, please let me know. I hope this helps you.
