READING ERROR CODES
1. Wake the dryer up by pressing any button but “cancel”.
2. Press and hold the “cancel” and “start pause” buttons simultaneously for 6 seconds to show the last error
code recorded. The error code will appear in the display as an E followed by two numbers. NOTE: E00
means no failure code experienced.
3. To view the last 5 error codes recorded, refer to the Diagnostic Mode listed below.
4. Troubleshoot problem by using the chart below.

Model only) or wiring defective
Possible Solutions
Check Contact Sensor and wiring. If no problems are found with Contact
Sensor, replace Electronic Control Board.
Check Contact Sensor and wiring. If no problems are found with Contact
Sensor, replace Electronic Control Board.
Replace Electronic Control Board.
If motor runs continuously with power applied check for short circuit across
motor relay (RL2), or L1 applied to motor relay output (J3-1) with cycle
stopped. If motor does not start when “start” key is pressed, check for open
circuit between L1 and motor relay connection (J3-2). If no wiring problems
found, replace Electronic Control Board.
Remove any load from dryer and check if drum turns freely by hand. Check
L1 power supply voltage, motor wiring, and motor thermal protector (if motor
thermal protector has tripped, it may take up to 30 minutes to reset).
Check wiring. Check if Motor Centripetal Switches are stuck in open or closed
positions. Replace motor. Replace Electronic Control Board.
Replace Electronic Control Board and retest.
Check for short circuit across heater relay(s) (RL5, RL6, RL7) or L1 applied
to heater relay output(s) (J5-2, J7-1, J7-3) with cycle stopped. Check for
open circuit between L1 and heater relay connection(s) (J5-1, J5-3, J7-2). If
no wiring problems are found, replace Electronic Control Board and retest.
Check heater coils and connections for short circuits to the cabinet. Replace
heater and/or wiring and retest.
Check heater coils and connections for open circuits. Replace heater and/or
wiring and retest.
For Electric Model, check Inlet Thermal Limiter for continuity. If Thermal Limiter
is open, check for evidence of high temperature event and any resulting
damage. If no further damage is evident, replace Thermal Limiter. If no
problems are found with the Thermal Limiter, check exhaust vent system for
air blockages. If no problems with vent restrictions, check/replace High Limit
Thermostat, and retest.
Check Outlet Thermal Limiter for continuity. For Gas Model, also check Inlet
Thermal Limiter for continuity. If Thermal Limiter is open, check for evidence
of high temperature event and any resulting damage. If no further
damage is evident, replace Thermal Limiter and retest.
