Possible Cause Solutions
• If the Flow Sense™ indicator remains active for more
than five cycles after the restriction has been cleared,
call for service.
• Make sure that the plug is securely plugged into a
grounded outlet matching the dryer's rating plate.
• Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do not increase
fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit overload, have
it corrected by a qualified electrician.
• Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do not increase
fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit overload, have
it corrected by a qualified electrician.
• NOTE: Due to the design of electric dryers, it is
possible for a circuit problem to allow an electric dryer
to run without heat.
• Confirm that the house gas shutoff and the dryer gas
shutoff valves are both fully open. Even if gas is not
supplied to the dryer, it will run and no error codes will
display. Verify that other gas appliances in the home
are working normally.
• If using the Normal cycle, deselect the ENERGY
SAVER option. The Energy Saver option is selected by
default. This option reduces energy use by adding an
air dry section to the beginning of the cycle. It is normal
to feel no heat at the beginning of the cycle while in
ENERGY SAVER mode.
• Confirm that the exhaust duct is properly configured
and free of debris, lint, and obstructions. Make sure that
outside wall dampers can open properly and are not
blocked, jammed, or damaged.
• Separate heavy items from lightweight items. Larger
and heavier items take longer to dry. Light items in a
load with heavy items can fool the sensor because the
light items dry faster.
• Check the power supply or the connection of the power
cord to the terminal block.
• Confirm that house gas shutoff and the dryer gas
shutoff are both fully open.
