The Yanbu project is significant because it’s an acknowledgment by Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest oil producer, that the future of oil is chemicals. Turn the thumbscrew or loosen the two screws slightly to increase or decrease the flow of air to the burner. The dryer timer, located in back of the control panel, controls several things: the drying time of the clothes in the drum, the flow of electricity to the heating element, and the flow of power to the timer motor and the drum motor in the dryer cabinet. A heavy thumping sound coming from the dryer while it is running is a clear sign that your drum belt needs some repair. To clear a clogged air passage, remove the back service panel of the dryer and back out the screws holding the air duct in place.

Step 3: To check an operating thermostat, first make absolutely certain that the power to the dryer has been turned off and the dryer is cool. Step 4: Slip the new heating element into the heating duct the same way the old one came out. Then reach into the duct and remove all the lint and dirt possible.

The most common dryer fan problem is lint clogging the air passages through the heater and through the dryer drum. Also inspect the fan for a loose screw connection where the motor shaft is set on the dryer’s drum. To test for this, set the VOM to the RX1 scale and remove the leads to the heater. Test an operating thermostat with a VOM set to the RX1 scale; clip one probe to each terminal of the thermostat. Clip one probe of the VOM to each thermostat terminal. Clip one probe of the meter to each timer terminal. The meter should read about 12 ohms. The meter needle should jump to a fairly high reading. Disconnect the leads to one side of the thermostat so that the meter won’t give a false reading. Then disconnect the leads to one side of the thermostat. Turn the timer to the NORMAL DRY setting and disconnect one of the timer power leads. Very high humidity can lead to rotting wood, while very low humidity will dry it out and cause cracking.

Replace the screws that hold the heating element in the duct, reconnect the leads, and screw the unit back into position. A defective heating element is frequently the source of no-heat or drying problems. Gas dryers use an electric ignition device rather than a pilot light to light the gas heater: An element becomes hot and glows like the filament in a lightbulb. Keep turning until the flame is a light blue color, without any yellow, and the whistling stops. Mercury can also be found in some household items such as thermometers, light bulbs and older-model clothes dryers and washing machines. If you have clean clothes that aren’t put away, go ahead and rehang or refold the items and put the items away. Step 3: To replace the timer, have a helper hold the new timer close to the old one, especially if there are several wires to be changed.
