I am guessing that the stove runs on 240 VAC and that the four wires were Black, Red, White and Green. There would be 240 VAC between the Black and Red wires and 120 VAC between the Black and White and Red and White wires. The green wire is ground. If this is the case you need a plug that matches the original 4 conductor receptacle.
You don't. The wire sizes are different between a dryer and a range. The range needs a larger size wire and hence a larger size breaker to feed the range. The dryer cable is a #10 and is rated at 30 amps. A normal range needs 40 amps to operate requiring a #8 wire.
No Not enough power in circuit for a range If you can accept partial function, replace range cord with a dryer cord.
The only time you should splice any home electrical wiring is inside a junction box. Any other way is wrong and it may and will cause fires, even death.
Yes, older dryers were wired this way. If you have knowledge and can identify the neutral, you can use this wire as a ground also as neutral should be bonded to ground in the USA.
See discuss question buttom below.
It may be a 220 Dryer, and you will need a new outlet installed. There should be no extra wires when connecting the Power cord to the plug
I would not recommend trying to use an extension cord for a dryer. the better option is to either buy a longer cord that is properly sized to deal with the extra distance or have an electrician come out and either move the outlet or custom make you a longer cord for your dryer.
GOLD IS THE VERY BEST CONDUCTOR, but for the money copper is better than aluminum and worth the extra cost.
The USA Asko combo series runs on 110V, which is unusual for a clothes dryer. A USA dryer usually runs on 220V and has its own dedicated circuit breaker, but the Asko can run on a standard household outlet which probably shares a breaker with other outlets in the house. A clothes dryer takes a lot of current. According to the specs on most Asko combos I looked at online, your unit probably uses close to the maximum current your breaker can handle. If you are using other electrical devices at the same time, you will blow the circuit. It may even be the use of overhead lighting if it shares the same breaker. One more thing on Asko: According to many of the online reviews, the 110V combos have a tendancy to have overheating problems in the wiring when using both washer and dryer simultaneously. I would suspect that this is due to not cleaning the lint screens, so be diligent. A dirty lint screen causes the dryer to work extra hard and draw more current.
The place you buy if from may do it for free, if new, or charge a small fee of $50-100.oo or less. If you hire a handy man that could vary. Both appliances come with directions how to hook up. The washer is easier than the dryer. You have a hot and cold line that connects from the washer to the spickets behind the washer, they are marked on the hoses. There is another hose that goes in the back of the washer that goes to the same spot that drains the water out on the spin cycle and a plug. On the dryer there is a plug and the vent hose that goes from the back of the dryer to the vent hole in the floor or wall. Takes less than an hour to do both. This is IF you have hook-ups already in place for a washer and dryer. If not, the costs are going to be a lot more significant. The cost depends on where you are putting the washer and dryer. If plumbing and electrical lines are close by it might run you about $400-500 for everything. (water lines to the washer, drain for the washer, electrical to the dryer and vent for dryer) However, it can be several hundred dollars more if you need to run plumbing and electrical lines significant distances (20 ft or more). To make it the cheapest possible, pick a location where water lines and an electrical box are less than 10 ft away. Also, if you do it yourself, you can save a lot of money and might only spend $100-200 in materials.

How much is a four year old dryer worth? It is a GE extra large capacity with 5 cycles.
Yes the Motor will fit if you pull out the Ford motor. (It is Quite hard to rewire)
You can always put in the dryer on high for 30 minutes. That usually shrinks most of my stuff, anyway.
Repairing it would depend on how it was damaged. A person could simply tape up some torn pieces if its an easy fix, or rewire it with extra wire for a major fix.Ê

To store electricity for a sudden burst of extra energy.
Cleaning it lifts a massive security risk that weighs on you and your family. Dryer fires are typically the cause of a dirty or inappropriately installed vent. Another risk from dirty vents is carbon monoxide gas buildup. An appropriate cleaning will save you on the cost of electric or gas. An immaculate pipe will allow the appliance to move the appropriate amount of air through the system, allowing your clothes to dry at a faster rate without using extra power.
No, Should be driven off the pulleys by a belt unless someone has installed an electric fan for extra cooling
Its electric charge polarity. If (+) it is missing electrons, if (-) it has extra electrons.
Electric garage doors are worth the extra cost. Electric garage door openers are very easy to use and you don't have to put any effort into opening it. There is no hazards because you don't have to worry about it closing on your car there is a sensor that will stop it from shutting. Also, you can have a garage door opener for your car.
The main use for an electric throw blanket is to provide extra heat. Some use them to reduce heating costs at night. The thermostat can be turned down. Others use them for therapy. It can provide extra heat for those who are anemic and have a lower tolerance for cooler temperatures.
