Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer before removing any panels.
Soft reset:
- Disconnect power for 5–10 minutes to allow the electronics to discharge.
- Reconnect and attempt to start a basic timed cycle.
Hardware checks:
- Remove the top cover and inspect the main PCB and display PCB connections. Reseat all multi-pin connectors firmly.
- Look for signs of burning, cracked solder joints, or moisture on the control board.
Next steps: If E06 returns after reseating connectors and power-cycling, the main control board may need repair or replacement. Firmware reprogramming typically requires Candy service tools, so contact an authorized technician.
