Hi,
The dryer inside lihgte comes on when you open the dryer door. Other than that nothing power up.
I have tried the trouble shooting by manifacture … But non of the bottons activate any thing… it will not go in test mode either. All tested the circute below for 3 or 4 diffrent elment below the dryer drum all seem to check ok.
According to the manifacturer thr touble is eithe in the control board or the consel eletronic control board behide the control buttons. and the say you cannot check those boards… help???

Perform the troubleshooting test #1 as described in the Tech sheet (page 3) and post the results. You will need a simple multimeter.

diagnostic test # 1 did not display any thing at all… ((Pressing less time mopre time in sequence)) no light no sighs of life…

Please click on the link, find and perform the test. The test you refereed to is a different.

OK did that all cicuit 1 thru 7 were all ok did not have a control board to change and could not check it

The step 8 in the test #1 says: If the dryer still does not operate, replace the machine control electronics (#57 on the [diagram](http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/If the dryer still does not operate, replace the)).
