Safety first: Unplug the unit before accessing the blower or heater area.

Clean lint filter and ducts: Remove and clean the lint filter. Access internal air ducts (rear or side panels) and remove lint buildup that may be restricting airflow.
Listen for blower operation: Start a drying cycle and listen near the vent or front panel (if safe). If you do not hear air movement or a fan sound, the blower motor may not be running.
Access blower assembly (advanced): Remove the rear panel to locate the blower housing. Check for socks, lint clumps, or other obstructions in the blower wheel and housing. Remove any debris.
Inspect blower wheel and motor: Spin the blower wheel by hand; it should turn freely without grinding. If it is seized or very stiff, the motor or bearings are likely failed and the blower motor assembly should be replaced.
Check wiring: Ensure the blower motor connector is secure and wires are intact.

If E10 persists after cleaning and inspection, a technician should test the blower motor and control board outputs.

Washer-dryer combo shows E10 and will not start drying; wash cycle may complete normally.
