Is there a special type of wire you used. Stranded?

I don’t think I’ve ever been happier at how perfectly this worked!! Got home from work yesterday to this being an issue. Out of nowhere. I was heartbroken, crying to my husband about it. This morning he followed your instructions, and without spending a single penny (because we had everything we needed) my dryer works like new again! Thank you!!!

I watched this and followed your instructions, and my dryer is working again! I used stranded copper wire to clean the old solder because I didn't have any solder wick. I also used 12G stranded copper wire because I couldn't find 18. Thanks for posting this! Saved me a few hundred dollars! Mine was burned in exactly same place as yours. Excellent video!

This WORKS! I am by no means experienced with repairing control boards or soldering, but this video helped me fix my dryer. 11-year-old dryer blew out this week and $20 solder kit (Home Depot) and $4 soldering wire got it done. The hardest part was removing the control board without damaging anything, but once it was out, it took me 5 minutes to do what the video shows. If you are contemplating this project, DO IT! Do not pay anyone $400+ to fix something that can cost you less than $25. Someone wanted to charge me $180 for the visit, $260 for the replacement control board and $80 an hour. A job that took me 20 minutes from start to finish and $25 in tools.

This is incredible! I have a Maytag 9000 series dryer that just stopped working yesterday after 9 years. Showed the F01 error code. Took it apart and was burned out at the same spot. Unsoldered all the connections you mentioned and resoldered with a 16 gage wire (didn't have any 18 gauge) Works perfectly again! Saved me $183.50 for a new board from Amazon. Anyone who has this same problem this will save you a ton of money! Thanks!!!

Repair many of these boards and I use a paper clip to bridge across the relay to the other two contact point and so far have hold up for years after, usually bend it in a small circle over the burnt terminal then shape it to angle and meet the two other contact points. John

Yep. Just what it needed. As you mentioned about strengthening the other side of that circuit with the second wire.... that was actually the side that was burnt on mine. Fantastic video! Thanks for sharing.

Great Video, fixed my Whirlpool duet dryer in 15 minutes. Note that depending on how severe the failure you may not see copper around the pin but will at the trace; use flux and lay down solder to fill the gap in the via. Easy Peezy. My dryer was 11 years old when this failure occured

Great Video! My duet dryer was doing nothing after holding start button. At first there was no error code but after about 5-10 seconds after pressing start, control board threw a PF1 error. Checked the control board and noticed the same burned connection to the relay. Ordered new relay on Amazon (14 bucks), removed the old one, and soldered the new one in. Reinstalled the control board and it started up right away. Saved at least 150 by not buying new control board. Did not do reenforced wiring, but will consider it if this happens again. If you see a PF1 error, check the control board for burn marks, loose solder joints and see if it is something you can fix.

Had the same problem in the same spot. The question might be asked "why do they mostly fail on that side when the traces are the same on both sides?" I suspect that it has something to do with the relay contacts starting to erode, and that pin is closer the the contact point than the other one. I would suggest replacing the relay if you are going to the trouble of taking everything apart. They are only $12 on Amazon. Then you will have new contacts. At least for a while...

None of the ones I have fixed failed again but I agree that it would be good practice to replace the relay.

Thanks for the great video. My dryer's back in business. Besides the burnt out connection on the board, you'll see the plastic housing on the inside charred as well. NOTE: After the repair, when I run the diagnostic (88) test, it kept flipping back to the F01 error. I about threw the board away in frustration, but then I closed the dryer door and ran a test load. Worked perfect. Don't assume the F01 on the diagnostic test means you failed. Try a test load.

In my case, the actual relay was non-functional, and it literally blasted the solder pads off the board when it went.

It's the contact points inside the relay that are getting burnt and causing arcing that causes this. It's not because there's too much power

@mcurtis600

8 ай бұрын

It actually ends up being a combination of both the connections on the board and the overheated contacts. Replacing the relay AND putting in the bypass wires as shown should last a while. My board had damage on the board and the contacts just like this video. All this damage is caused by the contacts being under sized and relying on an electromagnet relay and not a spring closed type.

This might not work for everyone, or it might be a temporary fix in some cases. The reason the solder joint blows out like that is due to a failing relay (contacts inside the relay are arcing). If simply re-soldering the relay terminal doesn't work (or doesn't last long), then replace the relay as shown in this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k46LpMyopae2pdo.html The original relay made by Omron appears to be discontinued. A direct replacement made by Panasonic is available for around $4 through Digi-Key (model JTN1AS-PA-F-DC12V): www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/JTN1AS-PA-F-DC12V/255-1719-ND/570856
