My Kenmore Model number 592 89045 01 dryer has 2 red T-shirts flashing and a square hatch symbol flashing on the control panel. What does this mean please?

This is the closest manual I can find, there is nothing describing the symbols you see. It sound like a paused cycle. Try cutting the power at the breaker for 10 minutes to reset it. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/773676/Kenmore-592-89032.html?page=21#manual It's not an error code as they are F and a number. https://removeandreplace.com/2015/05/21/kenmore-elite-he3-washing-machine-error-codes-fix/ ..

Kenmore Elite smartheat QuietPak 4: Dryer door frequently comes unlatched, multiple times, at beginning of a dry cycle. Is there an adjustment that will catch the door clasp stronger?

Yes, there are a few things you can check and adjust to ensure the door latch on your Kenmore Elite SmartHeat QuietPak 4 dryer is working properly:
  1. Check the door catch and strike plate: Make sure the door catch is properly aligned with the strike plate, which is the metal piece on the dryer frame that the door latch engages with. If they are not aligned, adjust the catch or strike plate until they are in proper alignment.
  2. Inspect the door latch: Check the door latch for any damage or wear. If the latch is damaged or worn, it may not catch properly. If the latch is damaged, it may need to be replaced.
  3. Check the door hinge: Make sure the door hinge is tight and secure. If the hinge is loose, the door may not close properly, causing the latch to disengage.
  4. Adjust the door catch tension: There may be an adjustment on the door catch to increase the tension. Check your dryer's user manual for instructions on how to adjust the tension on the door catch.
  5. Clean the door latch and strike plate: Over time, lint and debris can accumulate on the door latch and strike plate, preventing the latch from catching properly. Use a soft brush or cloth to clean the latch and strike plate.
If these steps do not solve the issue, it may be best to contact a professional appliance repair service for further assistance.

I have a Kenmore Elite HE3 electric dryer that won't come on.

The error message you are seeing on your Kenmore Elite HE3 dryer could be caused by a few different things. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
  1. Check the power supply: Make sure the dryer is properly plugged in and that the circuit breaker or fuse is not tripped or blown.
  2. Check the door switch: If the door switch is faulty, the dryer may not start. Check that the door switch is engaging properly when the door is closed.
  3. Check the thermal fuse: The thermal fuse is a safety feature that can cause the dryer to not start if it is blown. Check the thermal fuse for continuity with a multimeter.
  4. Check the belt switch: If the belt switch is faulty, the dryer may not start. Check that the belt switch is engaging properly when the belt is in place.
  5. Check the moisture sensor bars: The moisture sensor bars can become coated with fabric softener residue, causing the dryer to stop mid-cycle. Clean the bars with rubbing alcohol and a clean cloth.
  6. Check the control board: If none of the above steps work, the control board may be faulty and need to be replaced.
If you are unsure how to perform any of these steps, it may be best to contact a professional appliance repair technician.

My kenmore model 401.8505 stopped heating. Everything else appears to work. I changed the 3 door sensors, but still does not heat.

If you have already replaced the door sensors and the microwave is still not heating, it is possible that there may be a problem with the high voltage components of the microwave, such as the magnetron or the capacitor. These parts are responsible for generating the microwaves that heat the food. If you are comfortable working with electrical components, you could try testing these parts with a multimeter to see if they are functioning properly. However, if you are not familiar with working on microwaves or electrical components, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified technician to diagnose and repair the issue.

When I push the start button, the light blinks but won't start. Looks like pause button may be stuck

If the start button blinks and the dryer does not start, it's possible that the pause button may be stuck. Here are some steps to try and resolve the issue:
  1. Unplug the dryer: Safety first! Unplug the dryer from the power source before doing any troubleshooting.
  2. Check the pause button: Make sure the pause button is not stuck or jammed in any way. Press and release the button several times to see if that helps.
  3. Check the door switch: If the pause button is not the issue, check the door switch. Open and close the door several times to ensure that the switch is functioning properly.
  4. Check the circuit breaker: Check your home's circuit breaker to ensure that the dryer is getting power. If the circuit breaker has tripped, reset it.
  5. Call for service: If you have tried all of these steps and the dryer still will not start, it may be time to call for service. A technician will be able to diagnose the issue and provide a solution.
Remember to always put your safety first and unplug the dryer from the power source before performing any troubleshooting.

My Kenmore electric dryer just stopped drying. .

If your Kenmore electric dryer has stopped drying, there could be several reasons why:
  1. Check the Power Supply: First, make sure the dryer is plugged in and that the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. If you have an electric dryer, make sure the outlet is functioning properly.
  2. Check the Thermal Fuse: A blown thermal fuse can cause the dryer to stop heating. The thermal fuse is usually located on the blower housing or at the dryer's heat source. Use a multimeter to check for continuity. If there is no continuity, replace the thermal fuse.
  3. Check the Heating Element: A defective heating element can also cause the dryer to stop heating. The heating element is usually located behind the dryer drum. Use a multimeter to check for continuity. If there is no continuity, replace the heating element.
  4. Check the High-Limit Thermostat: A faulty high-limit thermostat can cause the dryer to stop heating. The high-limit thermostat is usually located on the heating element housing. Use a multimeter to check for continuity. If there is no continuity, replace the high-limit thermostat.
If the dryer will not turn off, the problem could be a faulty timer or a stuck relay. You may need to have a technician diagnose and repair the issue.

Leaving spots on clothing

Your dryer may use rollers, or wheels, to support the rear of the clothes drum. When these are worn out, they may cause the clothes drum to drop down slightly, which can pinch the clothes between the top of the clothes drum and the rear of the dryer interior. When the rollers wear out, you need to replace the whole set.Your dryer may have a felt-like seal at the rear of the drum. If this seal is worn, torn, or missing, clothes can get caught and torn in the space between the clothes drum and the rear of the dryer interior. When the rear seal wears out, you need to replace it. Your dryer probably uses nylon or plastic glides at the front of the clothes drum for support. When these are worn out, they may cause the clothes drum to drop down slightly, which can pinch the clothes between the top of the clothes drum and the front of the dryer interior. When the glides wear out, you need to replace them as a set. Many dryers have a felt-like seal at the front of the drum. If this seal is worn, torn, or missing, the clothes in the dryer may get caught and torn in the space between the clothes drum and the front of the dryer interior. When the seal wears out, you need to replace it.

Electric Kenmore Dryer series 80 burn out the High Temp Thermo switch?

It sounds like you have already done a lot of troubleshooting with your dryer, and that it is not working properly even after replacing the High Temp Thermo switch multiple times. The best thing you can do now is to consult a service manual for your specific model of Kenmore dryer. This will give you detailed information on the specifications for each of the components in the heating circuit, including the recommended resistance readings for the heating element. In general, a heating element should have continuity, meaning that there should be a low resistance path through the element that allows electricity to flow through it. The exact resistance reading will depend on the specifications for your particular model. If you don't have a service manual, you may be able to find one online or purchase one from a local appliance parts store. It's also possible that there may be a problem with the electrical circuit that powers the heating element. In this case, it may be helpful to have a professional diagnose and repair the issue.

Looking for a Kenmore Gas Dryer Manual on model #76512690-76512.

I apologize for the confusion, but I do not have access to specific Kenmore gas dryer manuals for model number 76512690-76512 as my knowledge cut-off date is 2021 and the information about the product is not available anymore. However, you can try to find the manual on the Kenmore website, or you can contact Kenmore directly to request a copy. In addition, you can also try searching for the manual on the Internet using the model number, and you may find a copy of the manual on a website that specializes in appliance manuals. Alternatively, the manual may be included with the dryer when it was originally purchased, check the box or any other packaging material that came with the dryer. If you are unable to find the manual, the dryer's operation should be similar to other gas dryers, with instructions on how to use the control panel, how to load the dryer, how to set the temperature, and how to clean the lint filter. Keep in mind that even if you are not able to find the manual, the dryer should have been installed by a professional and all the necessary information for its use should be provided by the installer.
