Error Codes
Problem
Error code: tE1 through tE7
Display shows error code: PS
*Flow Sense™ indicator
shows four bars during the
drying cycle or the display
shows "d80" after drying
* This warning light is
not a dryer failure and is
not covered by the dryer
warranty. Contact a duct
cleaning service to set up
an appointment to have your
exhaust system cleaned and
inspected.
Fabric softener is not used or used incorrectly.
• Use a fabric softener or the REDUCE STATIC option, if equipped, to reduce
static electricity. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Clothes dried too long (overdried).
• Overdrying a load of laundry can cause a buildup of static electricity. Adjust
settings and use a shorter drying time, or use MANUAL DRY cycles. Select a
LESS DRY setting on SENSOR DRY cycles, if necessary.
Drying synthetics, permanent press, or synthetic blends.
• These fabrics are naturally more prone to static buildup. Try using fabric
softener, or use LESS DRY and/or shorter TIME DRY time settings.
Very large load or very small load.Single large item such as a blanket or
comforter.
• If items are too tightly packed or too sparse the sensor may have trouble
reading the dryness level of the load. Use a TIME DRY cycle for very small
loads.
• Large, bulky items such as blankets or comforters can sometimes wrap
themselves into a tight ball of fabric. The outside layers will dry and register on
the sensors, while the inner core remains damp. When drying a single bulky
item, it may help to pause the cycle once or twice and rearrange the item to
unwrap and expose any damp areas.
• To dry a few remaining damp items from a very large load or a few damp spots
on a large item after a sensor cycle has completed, empty the lint trap, then set
a TIME DRY cycle to finish drying the item(s).
Temperature sensor failure.
• Turn off the dryer and call for service.
Power cord is connected incorrectly.
• Check the connection of the power cord to the terminal block.
Exhaust system is too long or has too many turns/restrictions.
• Install a shorter or straighter duct run. See the Installation
Instructions for details.
Partial blockage of the ductwork due to lint buildup or other
foreign object.
• Ductwork should be checked/cleaned immediately. Dryer can be
used in this condition, but drying times will be longer and energy
consumption will increase.
The appliance has detected a restriction in the external dryer
venting.
• If exhaust restrictions are sensed by the Flow Sense™ system,
the indicator will remain on for 2 hours after the end of the cycle.
Opening the door or pressing the Power button will turn off the
display.
