How to Fix

  1. 1

    Do not use the dryer until the exhaust system has been cleaned and/or repaired – severely restricted exhaust is a fire hazard.

  2. 2

    Inspect and clean the lint filter (clean after every load).

  3. 3

    Check all external ductwork for kinks, crushing, or tears. Straighten or replace as needed.

  4. 4

    Inspect the vent hood at the exterior of the home for lint blockage, damage, or obstruction.

  5. 5

    Verify the duct inside the dryer is properly connected to the blower assembly (may have dislodged during delivery/installation).

  6. 6

    Check that no screen is installed on the end of the air duct (screens trap lint).

  7. 7

    Verify duct length and elbow count do not exceed maximums: 0 elbows = 65 ft max (4-inch rigid), 1 elbow = 55 ft, 2 elbows = 47 ft, 3 elbows = 36 ft, 4 elbows = 28 ft.

  8. 8

    Check for foreign material inside the blower assembly; clean if found.

  9. 9

    If no physical blockage is found but error persists → Perform Installation Test (press Power then hold Wrinkle Care + Settings; press START/PAUSE).

  10. 10

    If error still persists after all checks → Default off duct blockage detection by pressing and holding Steam + Energy Saver for 3 seconds ('On'/'Off' displayed); consider replacing main PCB if fault is erroneous.
