Amana Refrigerator Defrost Thermostat

Amana Bottom Mount Refrigerator(Model#BX21VW/P1325002WW): Not cooling in the refrigerator section. I took all the food out of the freezer and found that the back panel had a frost build-up on it. I took off the inside freezer back panel and ohmed the defrost thermostat for continuity, it had none. I installed a new defrost thermostat, worked great.

Maytag Dryer Heating Element

Maytag dryer(Model#LDE312 series 02): Not heating properly. I found the element had broken and it was touching the heater housing, which is a grounded element. This caused the heater to be on all of the time, and not letting the timer advance in the auto dry cycles. This problem also made it so just 120 volts was passing through the element causing the low heat condition.

I installed a new heating element, worked great.
