Dryer runs but never heats; E64 stored or displayed; clothes remain cold.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Open-circuit heating element, Burnt heater relay contacts on PCB, Loose heater wiring connector, Blown thermal fuse

Safety first: Unplug the dryer. Heating circuits carry high current.

1. Visual inspection: Remove the rear panel and inspect the heater assembly and wiring for burnt connectors or broken wires.
2. Check connectors: Ensure all heater and thermostat connectors are firmly seated.
3. Do not bypass safety devices: Never bridge thermal fuses or thermostats; this is dangerous.
4. When to call a technician: Testing heater resistance and replacing the heater or control board should be done by a professional.
