GE dryer displays E25 and may not start or may shut off when sensing load.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Failed motor current sensor (on some models), Loose sensor harness, Faulty main control board

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before accessing internal components.

Inspect current sensor (if equipped):

Refer to the tech sheet to locate the motor current sensor (often a ring-type sensor around a motor lead).
Ensure the sensor is properly seated and the harness is fully connected.
Inspect for physical damage or burnt areas.
If the sensor is damaged or tests out of spec per the tech sheet, replace it.
If the sensor and wiring are good, the main control board may be misreading current and require replacement.
