Possible Causes

Blown control board fuse (on-board), Loose harness to UI, Failed main control board low-voltage supply, Faulty user interface board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before accessing the control panel or main board.

  • Confirm outlet power: Even if the drum light works, verify full power at the outlet and terminal block.
  • Inspect control board: Remove the top panel and examine the main PCB for an onboard fuse. If blown, determine and correct the cause before replacing the fuse or board.
  • Check UI harness: Ensure the ribbon cable or harness from the main board to the user interface is fully seated and undamaged.
  • Look for burned components: Any visible damage on the board usually requires board replacement.

If no obvious issues are found, the main control board or UI board is likely defective and should be replaced or tested by a technician.
