Fixed a 1992 Whirlpool dryer that had me stumped for a week
Last week, a customer in Springfield brought in this old dryer that would run but never get hot. I checked the heating element and thermal fuse first, like always, but they were fine. After three days, I finally found a tiny break in the wire going to the cycling thermostat, hidden under some insulation. I soldered it back together and it fired right up. Anyone else run into weird wiring problems on those old Whirlpools?

Three days on a single wire?

Three days on one wire sounds like a serious bottleneck. What's the actual process that takes that long? Are we talking about testing, approvals, or just waiting for parts?
