Error E66
Hi there and thanks for making the youtube video. I have the dryer open and the drum out. I have a multimeter but to be honest it is one of those tools I don’t really know how to use. What setting do I put it on to test the doohickeys? What am I looking for on the multimeter to determine if its bad or good?
After writing the first question on the youtube comment section I set it it the 20ohms and get a reading of 1.1 and 1.4.
Also when I took the dryer apart there was a lot of lint, coins and some other misc debris in the bottom of the dryer. Is this normal or might I have a leak somewhere?

HI. The debris in the cabinet are normal. The drum is not air tight as it turns which allows lint and things from your pockets to fall into the bottom. To test your components you will need to set your multimeter to Ohms or the Ohms audible tone setting. IF you are getting an Ohms reading or an audible tone across the component you are testing it is good. When you test a bad component such as a fuse you will get 0 ohms or no audible tone.

Stephen, if you are looking to test continuity of a part to see if it is good or bad put it on the 10,000 ohm scale. It shoud zero out if the part is good. If its bad it will not change at all. It is normal to find coins and lint at the bottom. Matt Ace technician
