Possible Causes

    • Faulty heating element that has burned out or failed • Defective thermal sensor or temperature sensor not reading accurately • Broken or disconnected thermal fuse that cuts off heating • Malfunctioning thermostat preventing heat generation • Poor electrical connection to the heating assembly • Control board failure preventing power delivery to heating components • Damaged wiring harness connecting heating elements • Failed high-limit thermostat preventing proper temperature regulation

Safety Checks You Can Do

    • Unplug the dryer from the electrical outlet and wait 60 seconds, then plug it back in to reset the system • Remove and clean the lint filter completely, ensuring no lint buildup restricts airflow • Inspect the external vent hood for blockages, lint accumulation, or debris • Check that the vent hose is properly connected and not kinked, crushed, or bent • Verify the dryer door closes fully and latches securely without gaps • Confirm you are selecting the correct drying cycle appropriate for your load • Ensure the dryer is positioned with adequate clearance around vents for proper airflow • Test a small load on a different cycle setting to determine if the error persists • Verify that the dryer is plugged into a functioning electrical outlet with proper voltage • Do not attempt to disassemble the dryer or access internal heating elements yourself
