Possible Causes
Open or shorted temperature sensor, Wrong sensor type installed, Damaged sensor harness, Faulty control board ADC circuit
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer before working on sensors or wiring.
- Identify sensor: On some Haier models, tE refers to a general temperature sensor fault (drum or exhaust). Locate all NTC sensors on the heater/exhaust duct and drum inlet.
- Check connectors: Ensure each sensor connector is fully seated and free of corrosion.
- Measure resistance: Disconnect each sensor and measure resistance at room temperature. Compare to the service manual values. Replace any sensor that is open, shorted, or far out of range.
- Inspect harness: Look for pinched or broken wires between sensors and the control board. Repair as needed.
- Control board diagnosis: If all sensors and wiring are good, the control board may be misreading temperature and should be replaced.
