Possible Causes

Blown drum light bulb or LED, Faulty door switch contact for light circuit, Loose light wiring connector

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before replacing any bulbs or accessing the light housing.

  • 1. Locate light cover: Inside the drum, find the light lens. Remove the cover according to the manual (usually by unclipping or unscrewing).
  • 2. Replace bulb/LED module: Fit a new AEG-compatible bulb or light module with the same rating.
  • 3. Check door switch: If the new light does not work, the door switch may not be signaling the light circuit; this requires further diagnosis.
  • 4. When to call a technician: If wiring or the control board is at fault, professional repair is recommended.
