Hi,

**My dryer lately has stopped too soon after starting with the E1 alert**

I found:

E1 THERMISTOR OPEN “E1” flashes if the thermistor is open.

Thermistor Test

The machine control electronics monitors

the exhaust temperature using the

thermistor, and cycles the heater relay on

and off to maintain the desired temperature.

Begin with an empty dryer and a clean lint

screen.

1. Plug in the dryer and set the following

configuration:

➔ Door - must be firmly closed

➔ Press TIMED DRY

➔ Press END OF CYCLE SIGNAL

(HIGH)

➔ Press START

2. If after 60 seconds, E1 or E2 flashes in

the display and the dryer shuts off, the thermistor or wire harness is either

shorted or open.

➔ Disconnect dryer from power. Check

wire connections at the machine

control electronics and thermistor.

➔ If wire connections are good, remove

the two wires from the thermistor and

replace the thermistor.

Plug dryer back into supply outlet.
