Dryer service experiences have been similar to washing machines. While service response times vary, there have been instances when technician availability was delayed. Accurate diagnosis has generally been a strength, but there was one case where a misdiagnosis led to an unnecessary part replacement. Improved parts availability and communication would enhance the service.
E01: Thermal Fuse Malfunction
The dryer’s thermal fuse is not functioning correctly, potentially leading to overheating or a failure to start.
E02: Drum Rotation Issue
There’s an issue with the drum’s rotation mechanism, which can cause uneven drying or a noisy operation.
E03: Ventilation System Blockage
The dryer’s ventilation system is blocked or obstructed, leading to poor airflow and longer drying times.
E04: Heating Element Fault
The heating element in the dryer is not working correctly, causing drying issues and potentially incomplete cycles.
E05: Moisture Sensor Error
The moisture sensor, responsible for detecting the dryness of clothes, is malfunctioning, leading to over or under drying.
E06: Control Panel Communication Error
There’s a communication issue between the control panel and other components of the dryer, affecting operation and settings.
E07: Lint Filter Warning
The dryer indicates that the lint filter needs to be cleaned for optimal performance and safety.
E08: Door Switch Problem
The door switch of the dryer is not functioning correctly, causing difficulties in securely closing or opening the door.
E09: Timer/Cycle Selector Error
The timer or cycle selector on the dryer is malfunctioning, affecting the ability to choose and complete specific drying cycles.
E10: Overheating Alert
The dryer has detected excessive heat levels, potentially due to a blocked vent or a faulty thermostat.
E11: Drum Belt Issue
The drum belt, responsible for rotating the drum, is slipping, stretched, or damaged, affecting the drum’s rotation during drying cycles.
E12: Gas Valve Error
For gas dryers, there’s an issue with the gas valve or igniter, potentially preventing the appliance from heating properly.
E13: Vent Hose Blockage
The vent hose or duct connected to the dryer is blocked or obstructed, leading to poor airflow and extended drying times.
E14: Cool Down Cycle Malfunction
The cool-down cycle is not functioning correctly, potentially leading to overheating during the final phase of drying.
E15: Drum Drive Motor Fault
The motor responsible for driving the drum is malfunctioning, causing issues with drum rotation and drying efficiency.
E16: Overload Error
The dryer has detected an overload condition, potentially due to too many clothes being loaded, leading to suboptimal drying results.
E17: Interior Light Issue
The interior light of the dryer is not illuminating properly, affecting visibility when loading and unloading clothes.
E18: Control Panel Display Error
There’s an error in the display on the control panel, making it difficult to select and monitor drying cycles.
E19: Door Seal Compromise
The door seal of the dryer is compromised, potentially causing air leaks and affecting drying efficiency.
E20: Power Surge Detected
The dryer has experienced a power surge, potentially affecting electronic components and requiring a system reset.
