Possible Causes

Incorrect wiring at terminal block, Reversed or missing line connections, Faulty main PCB power sensing circuit

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker and unplug the dryer before opening any panels.

Steps:

  • Verify cord wiring: Check that the power cord is wired correctly to the terminal block according to the installation manual (L1, N, L2 for 4-wire; or L1, N, L2 with proper bonding strap for 3-wire).
  • Inspect for burns: Look for signs of overheating or arcing at the terminal block. Replace damaged parts.
  • Professional check: If wiring is correct and PS persists, the main PCB may be misreading the supply and should be tested/replaced by a technician.
