How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer before inspecting the water tank system.
Steps to check and fix:
- Empty and reseat tank: Remove the condensate tank, empty it completely, and reinstall it firmly. Ensure it clicks into place.
- Inspect tank housing: Look inside the tank compartment for a float or microswitch. Clean any lint or scale that may prevent proper movement.
- Check level switch: Access the level switch from the top or side panel. Test it with a multimeter while manually operating the float or actuator. Replace if faulty.
- Verify wiring: Inspect the harness from the level switch to the control board for damage.
- Test operation: After cleaning and replacing parts, reconnect power and run a cycle. If E19 persists, the control board input may be defective.
