See video for the observed behavior.

What I know:

The control board makes no difference.

I am fairly sure that the touch panel and wiring is good.

I tested the thermistors and all were good, but I read that these are common failures and cause the mcu to not boot. New thermistors made no change.

I also tested both thermal fuses and they checked out good. Door switch also check out.

Added bonus. When I pulled out the drum I noticed a lot of lint throughout. Probably because the builder originally installed this machine with a kink in the exhaust hose and it took me two years to figure that out and fix it.

Anyone see this before?

I wanted to share my experience, hopefully others can avoid wasting half the cost of a new machine to repair theirs.

I purchased a new control board for my Maytag dryer hoping that it would solve the issue. It unfortunately did not. New board was installed and the same boot error occurred. Tried different resets and key combos and nothing worked.

It's an expensive part so I submitted for a return and got a cold response of:

"Unfortunately, we are not able to accept a part back for a refund with a part that has been installed. Per our return policy (agreed to at the time of checkout), your return would be rejected at our warehouse upon return. We have found that customers who have installed the parts can recoup some of their cost by selling the part online. Please let us know if we can help you further."

Fine, I didn't read the return policy, my bad, and I didn't lie about having installed it to test it out.

How in the world am I supposed to troubleshoot an electronic controlled machine without testing parts. Especially the control board.

Use them for their tutorial videos, they're good. But do not buy the part from here. If anything spend a bit more and buy from Amazon over Parts Dr.
