How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before replacing the light.

  • Access light: Locate the drum light cover inside the drum. Remove the cover according to the manual.
  • Replace bulb or LED module: Install the correct replacement bulb or LED module specified by Gaggenau.
  • Check door switch: If the new light does not work, test the door switch light contact with a multimeter. Replace the switch if faulty.
  • Inspect wiring: Check the wiring from the light to the control board for loose connections.
