Dryer Tech Data Sheet This information is intended for Qualified Technicians Only. CAUTION: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL CURRENT BEFORE SERVICING Please Return This Sheet to its Envelope in the Product for Future Reference MODEL DIFFERENCES: • Better models have a digital readout display • Good models do not have a digital readout display READING ERROR CODES 1. Position cycle selector knob to the 3 O'clock position. 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. Rotate the cycle selector knob to the 2 O'clock position. On better model dryers, the error code will appear in the digital display. On good models, the five indicator lights of Drying, Cool Down, Wrinkle Rid, and Clean Lint Filter Spin 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 five indicator lights would flash twice indicating the 2 and the START indicator light will flash four times indicating the 4. The five 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 dryer in the Good model line, the five indicator lights would blink four times and the START indicator light would blink ten times. Troubleshoot problem by using chart below. To move on to the next code, press the OPTIONS button. To clear code, press the Select button. To exit this mode, simultaneously press and hold the Select and Pause Cancel buttons for six seconds. Error Code E10 E11 E12 E24 E25 E4A E5B E68 E8C EAF Label Description General EEPROM Fault Checksum Error Non fatal R/W error Control NTC Short Circuit Problem with communication between EEPROM and the microcontroller. Problem with communications or memory did not check, one has become corrupted. Problem reading or writing to the memory or input/output. Control thermistor or its wiring is shorted. Control NTC Open Control thermistor or its wiring is Circuit open. Program Timeout The drying time has exceeded Fault program time for that cycle. Heater Fault (no heating) Temperature reading of control thermistor has not changed in a certain amount of time. Key (button) Struck One of the keys (buttons) is stuck Fault closed (active). Too many trips in a period of time. Watch Dog Reset The safety (high limit) thermostat has tripped too many times within a certain period of program time. Microcontroller has been reset by internal Watchdog timer. Solution Clear code, exit mode and start dryer. If problem persists, replace electronic control. Clear code, exit mode and start dryer. If problem persists, replace electronic control. Clear code, exit mode and start dryer. If problem persists, replace electronic control. 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. 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. 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. 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. Enter function test mode and perform key (button) test to determine which button is at fault. Carefully free the button and perform the test again. If button is free but the key struck code still exists, replace electronic control. 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. Clear code, exit mode and start dryer. If problem persists, replace electronic control. 134509400A (0501)
