Wiping all the history of error codes from the unit makes it harder for a technician to diagnose and correct the issue. You'll have to request service. If a reset doesn't work (and you tried all of the troubleshooting steps first) and the code just comes back, you shouldn't try to clear it again. (See our error code guide for a list of which have troubleshooting steps and which don't, or our blinking lights guide for models without a digital display.) Some error codes don't have any troubleshooting, though, and the only thing you can try is a reset. So when should you reset? After performing all the troubleshooting first. A reset won't clear your vent and won't troubleshoot this issue at all, but running a vent blockage test might help identify whether it's the cause of the issue or not. For instance, if the dryer is not heating well, it could be due to a blocked vent. You might think "Great, now my dryer will start working again," but it's a little more complicated.įirst of all, some issues are caused by something you'll have to address, and resetting isn't a troubleshooting step for the issue. Resetting your dryer will clear out all the error codes in memory.
