Dryer shows E08 and stops heating; fan may continue to run.

Safety first: Unplug the dryer. Moving fan blades can cause injury; ensure the unit cannot start while you work.

• Listen for fan operation: During a cycle, you should normally hear a steady airflow noise. If the dryer shows E08 and is very quiet, the blower fan motor may not be running.
• Access the blower housing: Remove the rear or lower front panel (depending on model) to reach the blower housing. Inspect for lint clumps, socks, or other items blocking the blower wheel.
• Check blower wheel: Try to spin the blower wheel by hand. It should rotate freely without scraping. If it wobbles or is cracked at the hub, replace the blower wheel.
• Inspect fan motor and wiring: Verify the fan motor connector is fully seated and wires are not burned or pinched. If the motor receives power but does not run, replace the blower fan motor.
• Reassemble and test: After clearing obstructions or replacing parts, reassemble the panels, restore power, and run a test cycle to confirm normal airflow and no E08 error.
