Well for sure the washer is going to be 110v. Only electric dryers are 220v!. If your dryer doesnt have a gas connection on it then it is a electric 220v dryer. If it has gas connection then it is 110v gas dryer. there is no such thing as a 220v gas dryer!!!.
if it has a small 3 prong plug then it's 110v for the washer but the dryer should be factory 220 volt however many were sold wired too! 110 volt! just look at the plug small plug 110v large 3 prong! 220v
Hi: 220 volts to a dryer are two 110 volts combined. Two separate wires. Did you check the heating element? See if it's broken. If so replace it. FIRST, Another thing to check is your circuit breaker. If it has only one side blown you will show 110 volts but that's all the dryer will get and dry slowly. The washer will still work as it's only 110v. I hopes this helps, Jeff
I thinkl you can order the manuals from www.sears.com under the parts tab enter your model # also if it is an electric dry it is 220v with a neutral leg check with the local electrian to see if the power there is phased..Hope this helps
PS::The washer and the refrig will work on the tranformers
If you hook it up to 120 volts (by connecting L2[red] to common [white] the dryer will operate, but your heating element will only produce 25% of the heat it would on a 220v circuit. The drying time would be about 3 hours, and the auto dry setting may not work. Heat difference is about 5000 watts of heat on 220v, vs 1250 watts on 120v circuit.
