Model: Electrolux EFME527UIW0 Electric Dryer.
Issue: Pressing power button does nothing. No lights, display, or sounds.
Powered on my like-new 3 yr old Electrolux dryer and set the desired time/program without problem. Then pressed the start button and the dryer turned off and won't turn back on. It hadn't been running at all that day, so it wasn't warm at all. Cycled the breaker to be sure and have verified 240v at the receptacle and inside the dryer via a multimeter, so the outlet and cord are good. When I press power I get no lights or anything, the digital display will not come on at all. It's acting as if it's unplugged.
This happened a month ago after a cycle and unplugging it for 10 mins seemed to fix. That did nothing this time. I've tried a few times over the past couple days as well as left it unplugged overnight. No luck. The vent hose is only about 2 ft long and vents directly through the wall and outside and is clear. No dust to speak of in cabinet at all.
I checked continuity on the in and out high-limit fuses, both are good.
Sound like a board issue? If so, which one? There are 3 I think - main board, user control, and the one for the knob.
