How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Always turn off the breaker before inspecting electrical connections.
- Verify outlet power: Plug another appliance or a tester into the outlet to confirm power is present.
- Check breakers/fuses: Reset any tripped breakers and replace blown fuses.
- Inspect power cord and terminal block: Remove the rear cover and check for burnt or loose connections. Replace damaged cords or terminal blocks.
- Check internal fuse (if equipped): Some Samsung dryers have an internal line fuse on the PCB. Test and replace if open.
- PCB failure: If power is present at the terminal block but the control is dead, the main PCB may be defective and should be replaced by a technician.
