Kenmore 11070012002 commercial dryer Parts

For Kenmore commercial dryer model 11070012002, the exact manufacture year is determined from the serial number on the rating plate (in the door well behind the door). Use the serial format shown in the 11070012002 owner's manual to decode the date and confirm the year.

Where to find the date information

Look in the same place the manual tells you to record service details:

• Open the dryer door and check the door well area
• Locate the model and serial tag (rating plate)
• Write down the serial number exactly as shown
• Record the date of purchase if you have it (receipt, service invoice)
• Keep the coin box key number noted as well if you service the coin mechanism

How to identify the year (what to use)

Kenmore model numbers like 11070012002 identify the product line; the serial number is what pins down the build date.

What you have	What it tells you	What to do next
Model number (11070012002)	Which dryer design and parts list apply	Use it to match parts and manuals
Serial number (from door well tag)	Build date and factory code	Decode it using the manual’s guidance
Date of purchase	When it was sold/installed	Use it to cross-check the serial date

Why it matters

Knowing the correct year helps us match the right Kenmore parts and revisions for your dryer, especially for wear items and service parts like the dryer drum belt 341241 or the dryer operating thermostat WP3387134.

To find the exact model of your dryer, look for the model and serial number tag on the appliance itself, not the owner’s manual. On Kenmore commercial dryer model 11070012002, the tag is located in the door well behind the door.

Where to look on a Kenmore dryer

Check these common locations first (in order):

• Door well behind the door (most common; this is where 11070012002 lists it)
• Inside the door opening on the front panel
• Back panel near the exhaust outlet or power cord entry
• Inside the service door on coin-operated models (meter case area)
• Side panel near the bottom edge

For diagrams and model-specific details, use the 11070012002 owner’s manual.

What to write down (and why)

Record the information exactly as shown on the tag:

• Model number (example: 11070012002)
• Serial number (used to match production changes)
• Date of purchase (helpful for service history)
• Fuel type and ratings (especially important on gas dryers)

Quick ID checklist

Item on tag	What it’s used for	When it matters most
Model number	Matching parts diagrams	Always
Serial number	Correct version of parts	When parts “look different”
Gas type/rating info	Correct burner setup	Gas heat issues or conversions

Why it matters

Using the exact model number from the dryer’s tag prevents ordering the wrong parts and speeds up troubleshooting. This is especially important on commercial and coin-operated Kenmore dryers, where small production changes can affect switches, thermostats, and burner components.

For Kenmore dryers, the most common display codes include PF (power failure) and several F-codes that point to a failed control, keypad, heater relay, or temperature sensor circuit. For model 11070012002, we use the troubleshooting steps and code definitions in the 11070012002 owner's manual.

Common Kenmore Elite dryer codes and what they mean

These are widely used Kenmore Elite-style codes you may see on electronic-control dryers:

• PF: Power failure or power interruption during a cycle
• F:01: Main electronic control board problem
• F:02: Keypad or user interface problem
• F:20: Heater relay problem (heat control circuit)
• F:22 / F:23: Outlet thermistor (temperature sensor) circuit problem
• F:24 / F:25: Inlet thermistor (temperature sensor) circuit problem

What to do first (safe, fast checks)

Before replacing parts, we recommend these quick checks:

• Reset power: unplug the dryer (or switch off the breaker) for 1 minute, then restore power
• Confirm a solid power supply (loose plug, tripped breaker, or weak outlet can trigger PF)
• Clean the lint screen and check airflow; restricted venting can cause overheating symptoms
• If it is a gas model and you smell gas: follow the safety steps in the manual and contact your gas supplier
• If you are testing electrical parts, use a meter and follow our guide: how to use a multimeter to test electrical parts video

Parts that commonly relate to heat and temperature errors

If the dryer runs but heat is inconsistent, these model-compatible parts are often involved:

Symptom	Common area to check	Example model-compatible part
No heat or short cycling	Burner ignition and flame sensing	Igniter 279311, dryer radiant sensor WP338906
Overheats or shuts down on heat	Temperature control and safety limit	Dryer operating thermostat WP3387134, dryer high-limit thermostat W11050897
Weak airflow, long dry times	Blower and venting	Dryer blower wheel WP694089

Why it matters

Error codes help us avoid guesswork. A PF code usually points to power stability, while F-codes typically narrow the problem to a control, user interface, heater relay, or thermistor circuit so the right test comes before the right part.
