973916002141000 Genuine Configured Main Board EDR18 Coated ANZ Version for Electrolux Group Clothes Dryers

This genuine Electrolux group control board, part number 973916002141000, is the configured EDR18 main board in its coated ANZ version. The coating is a protective layer over the circuit, and ANZ marks the Australian and New Zealand configuration. Because it is configured, it carries software matched to particular dryers rather than every machine using an EDR18 board. Check the number on your old board, or your dryer's product number, before ordering.

Dryer won't start or stops mid cycle? Check the main board

In a clothes dryer the main board takes the program you select and runs it, switching the drum motor and the heat source on and off while reading its sensors. When the board fails, the dryer may not power up, may ignore the buttons, stop part way through, show error codes or tumble without heating. Many of those faults also come from a door switch, thermal fuse, sensor or heater, so test those first. A board with burnt tracks, swollen components or a scorched smell is a strong sign it has failed.

Changing the dryer main board

Pull the dryer's plug from the wall before removing any panels. Take photos of the wiring and connector positions, then move the plugs across one at a time so nothing ends up in the wrong socket. Avoid touching the components on the new board and keep it in its bag until you're ready. Run a short program afterwards and check that it heats and turns before you put a full load in.

Questions about this part

My old board is marked EDR18. Is that enough to match it?

EDR18 is the board's type reference, but configured boards are set up for particular product numbers. Match the full number 973916002141000, or send us the model and product number from the dryer's rating plate through the parts enquiry form to confirm.
