U4 and catching 78 was a good spot. Eyes better than mine by the looks of it. U1 has a circular depression in it, must have had this in mind when glancing over U4. So easy to overlook things on these. With regard to supply regulated voltage, what the burned resistor connects to, black unit in...

The blue one or the little black one ? I think the blue one must have carbon on it from the resistor blowing. I've scratched through it, no hole. Its got continuity, everything has got continuity beside this dead resistor it seems.  So my next mission is to identify and find out the...

https://i.imgur.com/7rjanjr.jpg The worst of the damage was also hidden, hairline crack visual from the top of the board, barely noticeable, easy to glance over it. Its R4, not D4 as I posted above.  https://i.imgur.com/A5YU3uu.jpg The black substance was being almost completely obscured by the...

Quick update. Spent some time getting my head around the circuit. Tested cables to parts, parts, cables to the next part. Drawn towards the PCB. Learned about how the PCB functions, parts on it, and how to test them. I’m almost certain the PCB is the problem, beside running out of things to test...

Dryer was built in 2011 I think. So its getting on a bit. Its annoying me because I can usually fix everything, washers, laptops, vacuums etc but I dont have as much experience with condenser dryers or a multimeter so im learning and struggling to pin point the problem beyond the switch. I've...

Kind of messed up the ending to the above post and cant find where to edit. But basically, any advice on what parts to check now, or what, and how to probe, would be appreciated. 

Didnt have a multimeter at the time, so changed the interreference filter because one of the live terminals appeared broken, accompanied by slight stickiness and burning. Relatively cheap, so was hoping for an easy fix, but it either wasnt it, or there seems to be something else as well.  I've...

Hi everyone >Put the dryer on, no problems. Walk back in a while later and its dead. >Not the socket or fuse in the plug. >Open it up and look at the anti-Interference filter. Slightly sticky on one side with some burning. Plastic crumbles away on one side, revealing a broken wire...
