Possible Causes

Burned-out drum light bulb or LED, Faulty door switch contact for light, Loose light socket connection, Failed light driver on PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before replacing the bulb or accessing the light assembly.

  • Replace bulb: Locate the drum light cover inside the drum. Remove the cover and replace the bulb with the correct type and wattage specified by Fagor.
  • Check socket and wiring: Inspect the light socket for corrosion or loose connections. Tighten or replace as needed.
  • Test door switch light contact: Some door switches have separate contacts for the light. Test continuity when the door is open. Replace the switch if the light contact is faulty.
  • PCB driver: If using an LED driven by the PCB and all other components are good, the PCB light driver may be defective.
