Premature Cycle Termination on Sensor Dry
Dryer runs for only a few minutes then ends the cycle with clothes still wet (no error code)

Possible Causes
Dirty moisture sensor bars, Poor contact between clothes and sensor (very small load), Faulty moisture sensor circuit
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer before accessing internal wiring. Cleaning the sensor bars can be done with power off and door open.
- Clean moisture sensor bars: Wipe the metal sensor strips inside the drum with a cloth dampened with white vinegar or mild detergent to remove any residue.
- Use appropriate load size: Very small loads may not make good contact with the sensors. Add a few similar items to increase load size.
- Try timed dry: If sensor cycles end too soon, use a timed program as a workaround until the sensor circuit is repaired.
- Inspect sensor wiring: If comfortable, remove the front panel and check the wiring from the sensor bars to the control board for damage.
