Error Code tE2
Temperature sensor (thermistor) failure – thermistor shorted
Moderate
Address soon - your appliance may not work properly
Also displayed as: tE2
How to Fix
- 1
Power off the dryer.
- 2
Disconnect NA6 connector from main PCB.
- 3
Measure resistance between thermistor terminals. Compare to Table 1 (see tE1 steps).
- 4
If resistance reads near zero or far below Table 1 values → thermistor is shorted. Replace thermistor.
- 5
If thermistor resistance is within range → Check for short in harness between thermistor and NA6 connector.
- 6
If harness is good → Replace main PCB.
