Dryer shows E14; often associated with humidity or ambient temperature sensor issues on some models

Safety first: Disconnect the appliance from mains before accessing internal components.

Steps to check and fix:

• Locate the ambient sensor: On some Balay dryers, an additional NTC is located near the air intake or control panel area to monitor room temperature.
• Inspect connections: Ensure the sensor connector is firmly attached and free of corrosion.
• Measure resistance: Test the sensor with a multimeter at room temperature and compare with specification. Replace if open, shorted, or far out of range.
• Check wiring harness: Look for pinched or broken wires between the sensor and main PCB. Repair as needed.
• Control board diagnosis: If a known-good sensor and wiring still result in E14, the control board sensor circuit may be defective and require replacement.
