Dryer shows F63 and may lock out operation.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Internal software error, corrupted firmware, failing control board hardware, power surge damage

Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing electronics.

Attempt reset and inspection:

Unplug the dryer for at least 10 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge and the control to fully reset.
Reconnect power and attempt to start a simple timed cycle.
If F63 reappears, inspect the control board for visible damage (burn marks, corrosion).
There is no user-serviceable firmware repair; the control board will typically need replacement by a qualified technician.
