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 RL2 (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 RL2.
Reconnect power and measure voltage drop between terminal COM on
relay RL2 and neutral. If meter reads zero, wire between incoming line and
relay RL2 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.
