Possible Causes
Blocked blower wheel, Seized drum roller or idler, Failing drive motor, Restricted ventilation causing high internal temperature
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power and allow the dryer to cool.
Steps to address motor overload:
- Check for mechanical drag: Rotate the drum by hand. If it is difficult to turn, inspect rollers, idler pulley, and felt seals for binding or foreign objects.
- Inspect blower wheel: Access the blower housing and check for lint clumps, socks, or debris. Ensure the blower wheel is firmly attached to the motor shaft and not rubbing the housing.
- Ventilation check: Ensure the exhaust duct is clear and the dryer has adequate space around it for cooling air.
- Motor condition: If the drum turns freely but E07 recurs, the motor may be overheating internally. A technician should test the motor windings and thermal protector.
