How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer.

Steps:

  • Remove the water tank and inspect the cavity for lint or slime buildup.
  • Access the float chamber or level sensor (often near the tank housing) and clean thoroughly.
  • Ensure the float moves freely and is not jammed.
  • Check wiring to the level sensor for damage.

If the indicator remains on after cleaning and checks, the level sensor or control board input may be faulty and require replacement.
