Dryer runs but clothes come out very hot and sometimes wrinkled or slightly scorched.

Safety first: Stop using the dryer until the overheating issue is resolved to avoid fire risk. Unplug before inspection.

• Clean airflow: Ensure lint filter, exhaust duct, and condenser (if present) are clean and unobstructed.
• Test cycling thermostat: Access the thermostat on the heater housing or exhaust duct. Test for continuity at room temperature and compare to specifications. Replace if stuck closed or out of range.
• Check NTC sensor: Measure the resistance of the drum or exhaust NTC sensor. Replace if readings are incorrect.
• Control board relay: If sensors and thermostats are good, the heater relay on the main PCB may be stuck on. Board replacement is required and should be done by a technician.
