Possible Causes

Heater stuck on due to relay fault, Faulty temperature sensor, Software issue in main control PCB, Blocked airflow causing high exit temperature

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer and allow it to cool before inspection.

  • Check airflow: Clean lint filter, ducts, and condenser to ensure proper cooling airflow during the final phase.
  • Monitor heater operation: During a test cycle, verify that the heater turns off near the end of the program. If it stays on continuously, the heater relay on the PCB may be stuck and the board should be replaced.
  • Test temperature sensor: Check NTC sensor resistance and replace if faulty.
  • Use appropriate program: Ensure you are using a program with a cool-down phase and not a timed high-heat only program.
