only if you have someone who is allergic to the sheets.

Make sure there is a paddle inside the drum, the paddle is a baffle plate on the inside of the drum that helps to avoid this.

You could but you need to be sure the voltage is the same. Then it it is the same you can a new cord with the right plug on it. You will have to take the protecting plug connection by removing screws holding plate on, then there are three nuts that you remove to get the cord off. make sure you mark the wires color position on the three lugs After pulling the cord off you reinstall the new cord and tighten the lugs down and that's it. If your unsure about the voltage and don't own a meter it would be best to let a Handyman do it that is license and bonded.

Loosen backplate, dismount the drum, then you will get acsess the rollers. some work, but you'll get there.

you probaly have problems with rollers in front of the drum.

relays only have a specified life of x amount of switches x depending on the style and manufacturer, so there is a good chance it will fail eventually, if you know someone technically minded you could get them to change the relay which would be cheaper than the board its fitted too, as its at the end of the cycle i would guess it controls the heater as it cools down near the end to stop you buring yourself on the drum.

Umm, i think its time to say goodbye to your drier, i had a drier, when it got past the 4 year mark, it made a weird smell, then it kind of set itself on fire, call asko if you can, ask them....

Sounds like the belt is broken. See if there is a trouble door in the back so you can inspect the belt. If it is broken, get a new one from the dealer, and ask for instructions for replacement. If you can only get the belt, google your unit for more help.

Try taking the lint filter out and gently washing it with a soft scrubber. The screening is very fine and it might look clean to sight but might still need a more thorough cleaning.

i had the same problem. remove the 2 screws on the bottom panel. pull out bottom panel. turn the 2 red knobs counter clockwise. pull out condenser pack. rinse condenser under running water in the shower. out will come the biggest dust bunny you have ever seen in your life. re-install condenser and you are good to go. there is a step by step in the user manual under the maintenance section.

Never heard of no color wiring,are you in another country?
Try all the combination's with the breaker off.Take a look at where the wires start in the dryer, one wire will be the ground it will lead to a screw for the ground.then you have a fifty fifty chance it will be right just reset the breaker if it is wrong then rewire.
hope this helps

Q - My electric dryer runs but will not heat, what could stop my dryer from heating?
A - Things that could stop a electric dryer from heating:
- house fuse or breaker ( needs two of them ), heating element, burnt wire, thermostat(s), thermal fuse ( not all models ), motor heat switch, timer, selector switch, burnt power cord/plug.
A ohm meter test for these parts is here.
Q - My gas dryer will not heat, what could stop my dryer from heating?
A - Things that could stop a gas dryer from heating:
- glow bar igniter, thermal fuse ( not all models ), coils on the gas valve, gas valve, thermostats,motor heat switch, timer, selector switch, sensor.
A page for checking gas dryers is here.

may be you should also check the main power coming to the unit..could be thre is a abnormality on the supply of electricity on the unit.

HI,

If your dryer doesn't heat, check these:


Power from the house Check to see whether there's power getting to the dryer. Is it plugged in? Check for blown fuses or tripped circuit breakers--your dryer uses two fuses or circuit breakers. The dryer could tumble but not heat if only one of the two fuses is blown. If you have circuit breakers, one of the two circuit breakers can trip, even if the two for the dryer are connected.

Heating element Often a dryer heating element burns out, but doesn't trip the circuit breaker or blow a fuse. The heating element is simply a long coil of special wire. You can check it for continuity with an ohm meter. No continuity means the element is bad and you need to replace it--electric heating elements aren't repairable.

Thermal fuse On many dryers, there's a thermal fuse mounted to the exhaust duct inside the back cover panel. The fuse--which is about an inch long--is usually embedded in black resin and mounted in a white plastic housing. If the fuse has blown, you need to replace it. (You can't re-set it.)

Wiring A common problem is for the main wiring connection from the house, at the dryer, to burn and break its connection. Because the dryer can still tumble with partial power, the connection may be only partially defective. You may need to replace both the power cord to the dryer and the terminal block inside the dryer that the wire is attached to.

remove rear panel but not the screws holding the element in,then remove the plasitic fan housing bottom right then the fan 10mm nut,then the belt the drum will then lift out.the rollers are then easy to replace

Hello srg14846
Welcome to fixya.


You said,very little heat
You must elaborate??????
What is your brand, model number and year or age of your dryer???
waiting to assist you!!!!
Huuum

I do not need an expert, I need a wiring diagram. If you sold wiring diagrams for the asko T-700 I would have beenn happy to purchase. talking to an expert would be of no help to me. thanks anyway.
