Possible Causes
Worn or damaged membrane switches, Loose ribbon cable to control board, Moisture ingress into control panel, Faulty user interface PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer before removing the control panel.
Unresponsive buttons usually indicate a keypad or interface issue.
- Power reset: Disconnect power for several minutes, then reconnect and test again.
- Inspect control panel: Remove the top panel and then the control fascia. Check the ribbon cable between the user interface and main control. Reseat it carefully.
- Check for moisture or corrosion: Look for signs of water or detergent ingress. Dry and clean gently if present.
- Test buttons: If only certain buttons fail, the membrane or PCB is likely damaged. Replace the user interface assembly.
