Wife notified me that dryer is broken. She smiled because we had this dryer 10+ years, and she went online looking for new one. I got an E1 and F6 error. Got the same click sound. After a few hours of troubleshooting, I found this video. Same burn in the same area. Soldered jumper wire. FIXED!! Shopping postponed again... LOL!!!

@LyonsArcade Месяц назад

Yeah man, I knew you could fix it :)

@kristenherder2783 2 года назад

I just had my dryer crap out and I followed this video and IT WORKED!! I cannot thank you enough!! I’m just a young single homeowner and you made me feel empowered that I can fix things myself (sometimes haha). Thanks a million!!!

@LyonsArcade 2 года назад

Kristen you can fix a lot of the things in your house yourself, don't let anybody tell you you can't.... glad to hear you got it going, now don't you have some wet clothes to dry???!!!!????

@cherylsouthard2630 Год назад

Great video! My Whirlpool Duet dryer, circa 2009 crapped out today with the dreaded F01 error. After trying to unplug, then re-plug the dryer from the wall to reset it, I tried your fix. It took about an hour, and honestly the hardest part was emptying the wet clothes out the dryer, disconnecting the electricity, gas, and exhaust connections, and with my husband, wrestling it down from above the washer where it was stacked in a closet. It was also a teaching moment for my teenager on how to solder PCBs correctly, as she still melts the solder on the iron and drips it on her connections (bad!). As I type, I can hear my dryer happily tumbling our clothes dry. This fix was so much faster and cheaper than calling out a repair person, or buying a new dryer. Thanks!👍

Very well done Cheryl, I knew you folks could do it :) May she spin for many years to come :)

@kaolynmannino2775 2 года назад

This tutorial is fantastic! I figured that I’d give it a shot since the worse that could happen is damaging the board and having to replace it anyway. To my delight, the fix worked like a charm and the dryer is running while we speak. Thank you so much for posting this, Joe! You saved me money and had me beaming with pride over fixing my own dryer, YAY!!!

Sir you just made my Christmas! I was so bummed to replace this dryer and dragged my feet all day until stumbling across your vid. Once I got to the circuit board and saw mine looked exactly like yours , I started getting excited. It felt amazing when I put it back together and it started right up! You seriously made my month, I've always considered myself a tinkerer but shared away from electronic issues. Not only did you save me alot of money, but you have me a huge sense of accomplishment. Thanks for the great video

@LyonsArcade 3 года назад

You did all the work man, I just showed you where to look :) Glad you got it going, it's cool to see people save a little cash and the hassle of swapping the thing out of the house! Merry Christmas!

@harleydog2gsd 2 года назад

February 2022 - this repair STILL WORKS, saved me a cool $1K! I have 16 year old Duet, got the infamous F01 code and motor would not start. It took about 45 minutes to do this very same repair and get our dryer up and running again. Repair tech wanted upwards of $500 to come out, troubleshoot, and do a circuit board replacement (which is honestly just plug-and-play component). My post was not as blown out as the one in the video, but I still ran a wire on top to be sure I had a good connection. Even took it back apart after I ran it for a while to check for evidence of any new arcing. ALL GOOD. Just take a trip to the store and price the new ones ($$$), you’ll be willing to try this simple repair!

@josephramirez5849 2 года назад

You’re a genius! I was just waiting for a call back from a repairman when I thought I better try Utube. Went all over the Whirlpool website and got nowhere. I did exactly what you said in the video and hallelujah it worked. Thank you

Lol.. Yes and for a couple more years too

@josephramirez5849 2 года назад

Joe I have a question. So once I fixed my dryer I noticed that it takes more than one cycle to dry a load of clothes. It’s always dried on the first cycle. Do you think it had to do with that relay that had burned?

I came home to the news that our dryer stopped working. Along with the news, my wife referred me to this video. After watching once, I tackled the job exactly as the video instructed. I would have had no clue how to fix the dryer without this video. It was simple, and FREE! Thank you.

@chrispalm3856 2 месяца назад

i have the same exact dryer and it took a crap with the F01 error code. Was told the mother board was fired and better off just buying a new machine instead of replacing board. Seen your video and thought i would give it a try. Why not ?? Easy as 1 2 3 and it fixed the problem. Cant thank you info. Saved me a TON of money !! You are a Godsend !!! Thanks again !!

@shanec7227 Год назад

Thanks Joe!! This saved me $$$. Thought I needed a new board. Very clear explanation. I just cleaned up the connection post, and scraped a little more green off the trace. Then added a good drop of solder to make a good connection. BINGO!! Very thankful!!

@jeffdalton5562 3 года назад

Thank you for your video. I never understood motherboards now I can fix any. I did exactly like you said. I wasn’t sure about the wire piece, so I just used an old wire from a plug stripped it and made a nice new contact. First time soldering but no issues. Took about a half hour from start to finish. It was very satisfying. Can’t thank you enough. Love AC/DC as well. Rock on. 60 year old Californian!

Nice! Thanks! My dryer quit and had the trouble code. I found your video on a search of RU-vid and watched it. Took the dryer apart and exact same thing. I might add that I had the smell of burnt electrical pieces also. Saved me from buying a new machine as this one is 15 years old.

@sonnyhoang2571 2 года назад

@billc6460 2 года назад

This video saved our family!!! In the middle of the night our dryer broke down with tons of urgent laundries to dry. I read some fixing tips and videos but they all recommended to get the new board. We didn't have time to order and wait until it comes. The problem was exactly same as you had and described. So it was easily done in 30 min and we were able to keep drying all the urgent laundries tonight. How can I thank you more. Thank you so much again. God bless you.

10-22-23. I watched this video after getting the F=01 error code on my Whirlpool Duet electric dryer. Took the top of the dryer off, then the control board easily per the video. After removing the control board from its plastic casing, sure enough - there was the blackened areas of the casing and on the bottom of the control board - just like the video. I cleaned the board and did a horrible job of soldering. Put it all back together and got the same F-01 error code. Checked all the connections… still F-01 error. Took it back out of the dryer, and once again examined my horrible soldering job. I compared it to the video and could see I didn’t quite make the complete connection to the right point. I added a bit more solder, put it all back together and, voila- it works. Thank you for the great video! A10 Pilot

@jeffreyolynek8746 2 года назад

@randallhare7710 3 года назад

Joe, you are a genius! I had the same problem with my Whirlpool Duet Steam electric dryer just yesterday. F-01 error code. After removing the main control board, I found that the back of my board looked EXACTLY like the one you repaired. I soldered a jumper wire like you suggested and it worked perfectly the very first try. A new board costs $250 on Amazon. And basically, you fixed my dryer for FREE. I can't thank you enough!!!!!

@Daddonite Год назад

My man! Wife came to me with this F01 code. I had just gone through this with my dishwasher control board... ended in a new dishwasher. The inside of my control board case looked exactly like yours. Soldered up a new beefy trace, threw on some conformal coating, reassembled and voila! Seems to me this should be a saftey recall with the amount of sparks that it was producing. Thanks so much for the video, saved the day.

@LyonsArcade Год назад

I knew you could fix it man :) Think how many of these must be going bad, I get about 1 comment a day saying they fixed it with my video, and as you know probably 10 other people don't comment but have the same issue, or watched another video, or whatever. I honestly think hundreds of thousands of them are breaking.

@patcaronhulett5548 2 года назад

I will add my thanks to the rest of the comments. My dryer 15 year old electric dryer. Same issue, fixed now thanks to your video. At $240.00 per board you have saved a lot of people a lot of money.

@LyonsArcade 2 года назад

glad to hear it, i'm happy it's back up and working! It's a shame to have one small part cause people to buy a whole new dryer, get some more use out of it :) thanks for waching, have a great day!

@fredlfarmer 3 года назад

Joe, Just wanted to tell you that my dryer (11 years old) stopped working this morning and I got the message FO 1. Had no idea what the problem was and had a washer full of wet clothes. I went To RU-vid and your video was the first one I saw. My husband, (who I lovingly call MacGyver, because like you, he rather fix something that throw it out or buy new) and I watched your video. This evening we took our Whirlpool dryer apart, following your directions, and put it back together again. Right now my dryer is humming away! My husband says he may have a “man crush”on you! 😊. We fixed our dryer for free! Thanks so much for your video! MacGyver’s Wife

@LyonsArcade 3 года назад

Well hello there Mr. and Mrs. MacGyver, glad to hear you got it working! When I made this video I was hoping it would save somebody some cold dripping wet cash when their dryer died like mine did, and looks like it worked out, thank you for the kind words, I appreciate people letting me know it helped them!

@grahamspencer903 2 года назад

Thanks a ton Joe, for the clear instructions! I had the exact same problem with our dryer. I used a Dremel with a tiny wire brush to clean the lacquer off the damaged pcb track and to clean the relay contact post to accept new solder. Positioned the shopvac hose to extract any fragments while grinding. I added a thin piece of copper wire along the damaged track just like you did. I really like how the manufacturer placed the controller board in an easy to access location! I was able to do the repair without even moving the dryer.

@markbonasso1583 Год назад

Seeing your post, I got out my dremel with a brush to clean up the contacts before soldering. I had the exact same problem and Joe's fix worked for me too.

Holy Poop! Thank you so much! I thought this morning I would probably need to buy a new dryer given the cost and labour for parts. Took less than an hour to fix with your guidance! FYI... My board burnt on the bottom in exactly the same spot as yours. Super easy repair. Thank you again so much!

@michael6ringsjordan892 2 года назад

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to record this guide on how to fix it. With my luck I was extremely doubtful on this working for me but I had nothing to lose so I tried it and it worked! You saved me $500+ on a new dryer and saved me $200 on a new board for the old one. Thanks again!

@2kostasd 3 года назад

My wife called an appliance guy to come out - he charged $80 and told her the mother board was shot and needed replacing. $200+ for the part alone. I watched your video and went to Wal-Mart to get a $10 soldering kit. I just added solder to the burnt gap area (didn't have wire to connect like you had), but solder alone did the trick! I'm sure it will burn out again, no biggie because I'll just use the wire like you did above when I get some available. Such an easy fix thanks to your video, but you'd think it were a complicated fix. Thank you so much - you saved me a bunch of money and got my dryer running right away!!

@LyonsArcade 3 года назад

I'm glad to hear it! Keep that soldering iron, you may run into other things like this too, most of the time when an appliance or an electronic device stops working it's something simple like this that can often be fixed with a soldering iron... since I usually work on pinball machines it's more in my wheelhouse than some people but if it's already broke there's no harm in taking it apart and seeing if you can find something you can fix on it :) Glad you got it working, it's a pretty good little dryer model.

@holzig5229 2 года назад

Thanks Joe! Our Duet Sport washer stopped working. Visually checking the control board finally revealed a tiny, vertical inductor bobbin with one of the hair thin leads broken. Years of vibration was the cause. I very carefully unwound a few turns of wire, scraped the insulation off and re-soldered it to the control board. A spot of glue was used to attach the bobbin like should have been done originally. Fortunately, I had access to a lab microscope but a good magnifier would work well too. Our Carrier evaporator blower control board had a similar issue to the problem you just described and was repaired the same way.

@RWnutjob45 2 года назад

I legit thought I was going to be going to buy a dryer tomorrow. This video saved me! I didn't go crazy with the connections like you did just cleaned it up and dropped some solder on it. Good as new now. I would buy you a nights worth of drinks if I could. THANK YOU!

Hey! December 14th, 2020. Dryer gave me the 01 code. Took a look, sure enough the solder was gone & the current was arcing. Cleaned it up and re-soldered the spot and it works just fine now! Saved me 240$ US for he cost of a new board. Thanks a ton for this great video! Truly appreciated.

@LyonsArcade 3 года назад

Thanks Peter, I'm glad you were able to fix it! When I made this video I hoped it would help somebody, i'm glad it got you going again!

This video saved me some big $$! 10 minute solder repair job that I did myself, back in business!! THANK YOU!

@fotrtisrn2014 4 года назад

Thank you so much for your video. This was the exact problem with our dryer. We ordered the replacement part and had it installed in less than 30 minutes and saved alot of money.

@LyonsArcade 4 года назад

Thank you for letting me know, that's cool you were able to get it back up and running again!

@GlennMiller-xx5nu 11 месяцев назад

THANK YOU SO MUCH!😊 I cannot believe that I was able to fix my dryer for the price of a soldering iron! Your instructions were spot on-- and turns out my circuit board had the exact same problem as yours. Thank you SO MUCH for your clear instructions. Saved me sooo much money and time-- really liked what you said about fixing stuff not just to save $ but because throwing out and replacing is not a sustainable way for us to live. God bless you!!!!

Wait, what?!? You've been teaching me to diagnois pin ball machines, but today when I needed some how-to help on my dryer... you can do that too!!! Outstanding!! Thank you!

@pennymanes453 4 года назад

Thank you! That was exactly the problem we had. I found your video, showed my husband and when it worked, he laughed and said he was just going to buy a new board. Thanks for saving me some cash.

@LyonsArcade 4 года назад

Very cool, glad it worked for you! I think a lot of these are starting to do this so a new board is probably a good idea! Thanks for watching.

@mlclmdnldsn Год назад

Thank you so much! I followed these steps and my dryer is running again. Great video work and explanation along the way too.

@fufutmemec3898 Год назад

I happen to stumble on your you tube video while looking for a solution to the same issue. Got the electric dryer running using the instructions on this video. I was about to buy a replacement control board for about $500. Thanks a lot.

@LyonsArcade Год назад

Thanks for letting me know Fufut Memec, great job on the repair :)

@ericallard5179 Год назад

Many thanks. I got the exact same problem, same pin on the board. Now my dryer is working as new... for another 10 or 20 years😉

@joenash2806 3 года назад

Exactly the problem with mine, a little wire and solder saved me a couple hundred dollars. Thanks

@LyonsArcade 3 года назад

Very cool Joe, glad you were able to fix it!

@trishrobinson5828 3 года назад

Add me to your list of successful fixes!! I chivvied my reluctant son-in-law to give this a try before spending money 4 days before Christmas. He had a soldering iron and I just left him to it. After a bit he came and said, 'come look'. My giant quilt is now being dried. I so very much appreciate your tips and tricks and your teaching style. Blessings to you and yours for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

@LyonsArcade 3 года назад

That's great Trish, I'm glad to hear it worked for you! To me it wasn't just the money it was having to haul the thing out of the house too that is a big pain! Glad he was able to get it going, have a Merry Christmas!

@trishrobinson5828 3 года назад

@@LyonsArcade Well, they could have afforded a new one, but I'm old school and want to try to fix before tossing. And yes, getting rid of them is a mess.

@ericglover2744 2 года назад

Thanks so much Joe. Like others commenting, I had the same problem and was able to solder in a jumper. Worked like a charm and saved me $396 (current retail price for OEM part)! I could hear the relay engaging, so was pretty sure the relay was good. Others have replaced this after just trying to resolder the contact. The relay is on eBay for $6 plus $4 shipping if you need one. That was going to be my next step. Thanks again!

@muthannasubbaiah4656 2 года назад

Amazing. Just did the exact same thing and got the dryer running again. Saved me $400 and even better a dryer from the landfill. Thanks!!

@LyonsArcade 2 года назад

Thank you Muthanna, I love hearing that it worked for people, glad you got it straightened out, I knew you could do it!

@marsman57 3 года назад

I ran a load successfully this morning, and tried a second only to have this happen. I watched this video and checked mine, and it was exactly the same thing. I'm not the best at soldering, but I was able to do the trick. Thanks for creating this video! Edit: I'm in Columbia too, so I'll try to come support y'all sometime when I'm up in your area next!

@oldfishy100 7 месяцев назад

Thank you very much! I have the means and abilities to do this repair but i don't venture into repairing appliance control boards that often and without finding this video I probably wouldve had a tech in or replaced the board entirely, You saved me a ton and time and money!

@jblazingame 2 года назад

Thanks a ton! My wife and I picked up a washer dryer set someone was throwing away. The washer worked fine, but the dryer had this problem in addition to a broken heating element and idler pulley! Thanks to your video I was able to get it running!

@jaredmcdougal2495 11 месяцев назад

My man, thank you so much for the tutorial! Was able to use a spare wire I had laying around from tinkering on my RC cars. Now the dryer is running like a top. You are a gentleman and a saint. 😎

@johnayre6189 2 года назад

Your video was spot on!!! I followed your steps and the dryer works again! Thanks a million. I’m sure you saved me hundreds of dollars and days of waiting for a repairman. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Thank YOU John, you're the one who did all the work! I hope you get many more years out of that dryer. Now... don't you have some clothes to dry, hmmm????

@AV-cz4yb 3 года назад

Thanks pal! This worked like a charm. My wife said something is wrong with the dryer and I had it fixed in less than an hour. Same solder joint as in your machine. Thanks again!

@danfouts100 4 года назад

Wow this was too easy. I had the same exact problem. I had to run to Walmart for a $10.00 soldering iron and followed your instructions. It was the best feeling when she started right up. Thanks so much Joe

@LyonsArcade 4 года назад

You know when I was making the video, I thought this will be really cool if it saves somebody some money and some trouble. Glad it worked out, mine is still running good 6 months or so later!

@ivannevares687 2 года назад

Ditto! Exactly my problem as well. It had the tell-tale burnout. Easy to fix. Use a small soldering gun for slower heating. I first soldered a small dollop of solder wire on the terminals and on the wire as well. It makes it easier to attach the wire when shorthanded. Thanks Joe, you are a genius!
