How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Turn off the breaker and unplug the dryer before opening any panels.
- Step 1 – Check household breaker/fuse: Reset the dryer breaker or replace blown fuses. Ensure the breaker stays on.
- Step 2 – Inspect power cord and outlet: Verify the cord is firmly plugged in and not damaged. Test the outlet for correct voltage.
- Step 3 – Inspect terminal block: Remove the rear cover and check for burnt or loose connections. Repair or replace as needed.
- Step 4 – Internal fuse (if present): Some models have an internal line fuse on the control board or wiring harness. Test for continuity and replace if open.
If power is present at the control but the display remains dead, the main control or UI may need replacement.
