Possible Causes

    • Faulty heating element that has burned out or lost continuity • Defective thermal fuse that has blown due to excessive heat buildup • Malfunctioning temperature sensor or thermistor • Clogged lint filter restricting airflow and triggering thermal protection • Blocked exhaust vent or dryer vent hose reducing air circulation • Faulty door switch preventing proper circuit completion for heating • Damaged wiring or loose electrical connections to heating components • Control board malfunction preventing heating element activation

Safety Checks You Can Do

    • Unplug the dryer from the electrical outlet for 60 seconds, then plug it back in to reset the system • Remove and thoroughly clean the lint filter, ensuring no lint or debris remains • Inspect the external dryer vent hood outside your home to confirm it opens freely and is not blocked by lint or obstructions • Check the entire length of the dryer vent hose for kinks, crushing, or blockages • Verify that the dryer door closes completely and latches securely • Confirm you are using the correct drying cycle setting for your load type • Ensure the area around the dryer has proper ventilation and airflow • Check that the dryer is not pushed too close to walls, which can restrict rear vent access • If error persists after these checks, contact a qualified service technician for heating element or sensor replacement
