Dryer randomly changes remaining time or extends the cycle significantly.

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before cleaning sensors.

• Clean moisture sensor bars: Thoroughly clean the sensor strips inside the drum to ensure accurate readings.
• Adjust load size: Avoid overloading. Large, dense loads can dry unevenly and cause the control to extend time.
• Sort fabrics: Dry similar fabrics together. Mixed loads can confuse the sensor.
• Test timed cycle: If timed cycles behave normally but auto cycles do not, the moisture sensor or control algorithm may be at fault. Replace the sensor assembly if cleaning does not help.
