You are a god among charlatans. Thanks. This is exactly what I needed to know, after trying so many other diagnostics (as viewed on YT), and then wondering... what next? Even though, this seems like it should be a Top 3 things to check when ya gots no heat!

[@MattN8tvYT]

Great video, I was wondering why it wasn't reading at all at the lowest 200 ohm setting.

شكرا لك

[@luisneri6702]

very clear explanation

[@PartsDr]

Great!

[@RafaelJimenez-hz9gu]

I placed my meter on ohm setting. however, when testing it gave me a reading of 1 and yet it was good. can you tell me why ?

[@otoniel780]

thanks

[@PartsDr]

Glad you found it helpful :)

[@jvcmercado]

My old one reads 10.1. Is it bad? Set multimeter on 200k

[@PartsDr]

If your model dryer uses the part number shown in the video, then it is bad.

[@tylerk633]

Im getting a reading of 60k at 71°f. Is that normal? I keep getting a dryer door switch fault code. Ive replaced the switch and tested just about everything else.

[@PartsDr]

That reading is high, but probably not high enough to cause the dryer to stop working.

[@nickrazavi9181]

I'm getting a reading of 49.5, any recommendations?

[@PartsDr]

That reading is probably good.

[@nickrazavi9181]

@@PartsDr thanks for the super fast response!

[@CarlosGarcia-ij4yg]

What is far greater or lower?

Following

[@therealrollaz]

usually 10% + or - it should be replaced, but remember, it changes with the temp, so that figure is with 75 degrees room

[@nonyapersonal8468]

I ordered 2 new ones for my dryer and they both read about 10.0 K Oms out of the package and my old one read 49.00 K Ohms

[@PartsDr]

What is the model number of your dryer?

[@nonyapersonal8468]

I got the part number for the thermistor off of the actual part. 134587700 I ordered two and both brand new 134587700 read about 10K Ohms the old one reads 49 K Ohms

[@PartsDr]

@@nonyapersonal8468 Where did you order them from? We see a lot of issues with cheap aftermarket and knock off ones being sold on places like Amazon and Ebay.

[@str8rockerma]

My multimeter can't read it , can you tell me why? Thanks in advance

[@therealrollaz]

@@str8rockerma if you have an auto setting use it, otherwise use the 200k setting

[@garygreathouse8223]

I'm at 63.2 ohms.

[@Bulletcore]

Mine reads 46.5 is it bad?

[@PartsDr]

Most thermistors have a tolerance of plus or minus 5% to 10%. This is just outside the 10% range, so it might be worth replacing. It is probably not far enough off to stop the dryer from working.

[@Bulletcore]

@@PartsDr thank you for the quick response.

[@Dogpool]

The robot in this video likes saying thermistor in a funny way. You think he’s trolling us?

[@actionrick9345]

Hes just canadian

[@nonyapersonal8468]

Should be around 10.00 for this part#134587700

[@therealrollaz]

10k - 11k is for a different thermistor, this one is 54k
