READING ERROR CODES
1. Non-Digital Readout Display Models: Rotate cycle selector knob to the 3 O’clock position.
Digital Readout Display Models: Rotate cycle selector knob clockwise (3) settings from the Normal cycle option.
2. Press and hold the Select and Pause Cancel buttons simultaneously for six seconds.
3. Immediately after, press and hold the START and Pause Cancel buttons simultaneously for 4 seconds.
4. Digital Readout Display Models: rotate the timer knob (1) click counterclockwise. The error code will appear in the digital
display.
Non-Digital Readout Display Models: rotate the cycle selector knob to the 2 O’clock position. The four indicator lights of
Drying, Cool Down, Wrinkle Rid (Press Saver), and Clean Lint Filter will flash the number of times for the first digit of
the code and the START indicator light will flash the number of times for the second digit. Take separate counts of each
indicator light, then repeat to confirm in order to be accurate in identifying the proper error code. The code is obtained by
counting the number of times the lights flash. Example E24: The four indicator lights would flash twice indicating the 2
and the START indicator light will flash four times indicating the 4. The four indicator lights and the START indicator light
start flashing at the same time. The control will pause for 2 seconds, then repeat the code.
NOTE: A letter appearing in the code stands for a number higher than nine. A = 10 B = 11 C = 12 D = 13 E = 14 F = 15
Example Code E4A: the first digit would be 4 and the second digit would be 10. If this code would appear on a washer in
the Non-Digital Readout Display Models, the four indicator lights would blink four times and the START indicator light
would blink ten times. Troubleshoot the problem by using the chart below.
To move on to the next code, press the OPTIONS button.
To clear code, press the Select button. Code will be cleared when mode is exited.
To exit this mode, simultaneously press and hold the Select and Pause Cancel buttons for six seconds.
Error Code Label Description Solution
E10 General EEPROM
Fault
Problem with communication
between EEPROM and the
microprocessor.
Clear code, exit mode and start dryer. If problem persists, replace electronic
control.
E11 Checksum Error Problem with communications or
memory did not check, one has
become corrupted.
Clear code, exit mode and start dryer. If problem persists, replace electronic
control.
E12 Non fatal R/W
error
Problem reading or writing to the
memory or input/output.
Clear code, exit mode and start dryer. If problem persists, replace electronic
control.
E24 Control NTC Short
Circuit
Control thermistor or its wiring is
shorted.
Remove wires from control thermistor. Measure resistance of thermistor. If
reading is not 50 K (± 10%), replace thermistor. If reading is within 50 K (±
10%), check wiring between thermistor and electronic control. If good,
replace electronic control.
E25 Control NTC Open
Circuit
Control thermistor or its wiring is
open.
Remove wires from control thermistor. Measure resistance of thermistor. If
reading is not 50 K (± 10%), replace thermistor. If reading is within 50 K (±
10%), check wiring between thermistor and electronic control. If good,
replace electronic control.
E4A Program Timeout
Fault
The drying time has exceeded
program time for that cycle.
Press Pause Cancel and SELECT buttons for 6 seconds to exit test modes.
Position cycle selector to NORMAL, temperature selector to HIGH HEAT
and touch START. Check for anything that would extend dry times such as:
no heat, restricted vent, blower fan blade broken or loose, dryer installed in
closet with solid door, or bad connection in moisture sensor bar circuit or
dirty bars. If dryer operates normally but code returns, replace electronic
control.
E5B Heater Fault (no
heating)
Temperature reading of control
thermistor has not changed in a
certain amount of time.
Position cycle selector to NORMAL, temperature selector to HIGH HEAT
and touch START. Measure voltage across terminals on relay K2 (heater
relay) on electronic control. If meter reads 240V on electric models and
120V on gas models, replace electronic control. If meter reads zero, remove
power from dryer. Disconnect wire going to NO terminal on the relay K2.
Reconnect power and measure voltage drop between terminal COM on
relay K2 and neutral. If meter reads zero, wire between incoming line and
relay K2 is open. If meter reads 120V, check the rest of the heater circuit.
E68 Key (button) Struck
Fault
One of the keys (buttons) is stuck
closed (active).
Enter function test mode and perform key (button) test to determine which
button is at fault. Carefully free the and perform the test again. If button is
free but the key struck code still exists, replace electronic control.
E8C Too many trips in a
period of time.
The safety (high limit) thermostat
has tripped too many times within
a certain period of program time.
Check for blocked lint filter, blocked exhaust, air leaks around air duct,
broken blower fan blades, worn or loose drum seals, dryer installed in closet
with solid doors or door seal not correctly seated.
EAF Watch Dog Reset Microcontroller has been reset by
internal Watchdog timer.
Clear code, exit mode and start dryer. If problem persists, replace electronic
control.
