| Code | Meaning | First check | Procedure |
|---|---|---|---|
| d80DR | MeaningExhaust duct is about 80% restricted: the dryer is warning, not stopping.User-fixable | First checkLint screen first, then the flexible hose behind the machine: it crushes when pushed back. | Open guide |
| d90DR | MeaningExhaust duct is about 90% restricted. Drying times will have roughly doubled.User-fixable | First checkDisconnect the hose and run a two-minute air-fry cycle: strong airflow means the blockage is downstream. | Open guide |
| d95DR | MeaningExhaust duct is about 95% restricted. Stop using the dryer: this is the fire-risk threshold.User-fixable | First checkClear the full run from machine to wall cap, including the exterior flap. | Open guide |
| tE1DR | MeaningThermistor 1 error: the inlet/heater temperature sensor is out of range.Service call likely | First checkA restricted duct cooks this sensor. Clear airflow first, then measure the thermistor. | · |
| tE2DR | MeaningThermistor 2 error: the outlet/exhaust temperature sensor is open or shorted.Service call likely | First checkSensor connector at the blower housing; lint packs around it and pulls the terminal loose. | · |
| tE4DR | MeaningThermistor 4 error: the compressor-side sensor on heat-pump models is faulty.Service call likely | First checkClean the heat-exchanger fins behind the lower flap before condemning the sensor. | · |
| dEDR | MeaningDoor error: the drum door is not latching, or the switch has failed.User-fixable | First checkListen for the click as the door closes; no click means the strike plate has worn. | · |
| PSDR | MeaningPower supply error: the dryer saw a mains surge or a phase problem.Service call likely | First checkRemove extension leads and plug directly into the wall on its own circuit. | · |
| AEDR | MeaningAssembly / EEPROM communication error between the control and display boards.Service call likely | First checkUnplug for ten minutes. If it returns immediately, the main board needs replacing. | · |
| nPDR | MeaningNo power to the heater leg: one side of the 240 V supply is missing.Service call likely | First checkA tripped half of a double-pole breaker: the drum turns, the air stays cold. | · |
| F1DR | MeaningComponent fault reported by the main board: usually a relay stuck closed.Service call likely | First checkDoes the drum heat when the cycle is off? That confirms a welded heater relay: unplug it now. | · |
| OEDR | MeaningCondensate drain error on condenser and heat-pump dryers: the pump cannot clear the tray.User-fixable | First checkEmpty the water tank and clean its float; sludge on the float is the usual cause. | · |
