General Information

WARNING

!

To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death from improper servicing, make sure you understand the
proper procedures and usage of tools listed, before attempting any procedures described in the manual. Failure
to understand and comply with safety information may result in severe personal injury or death.

TEST EQUIPMENT

The equipment required to service Maytag products
depends largely upon the condition you encounter.
Locating a malfunction will often require the use of
electrical testing equipment such as:

Clamp-On Ammeter can be
used to detect shorts.
Overloads on the circuit
breaker or fuse can be
traced to either the dryer or
circuit breaker by checking
the dryer current draw.

Analog Test Meter
can be used to check for open
or closed circuits, measure
resistance, AC and DC volts,
and temperature.

Digital Test Meter
can be used to check for open or closed circuits,
measure resistance, AC and DC volts, and
temperature.

Air Test Meter
can be used to check back pressure in the
exhaust duct. Vent restriction can cause
back pressure and disrupt normal
operations of the dryer.

AC Voltage Sensor
can be used to alert you if AC voltage is present so
proper safety precautions can be observed. The tip of
the sensor will glow bright red if voltage is between
110-600 volts AC.

Water Column Manometer can be used to
check gas pressure being supplied to the
dryer and the outlet tap pressure on the gas
valve.
