Pull the tech sheet out of the dryer ( behind the lower front access panal ). The lights flashing are trying to tell you a fault code.
A copy:
MODEL DIFFERENCES: • Better models have a digital readout display
• Good models do not have a digital readout display
READING ERROR CODES 1. Position cycle selector knob to the 3 O’clock position.
2. Press and hold the
Select and
Pause Cancel buttons simultaneously for six seconds.
3. Immediately after, press and hold the
START and
Pause Cancel buttons simultaneously for 4 seconds.
4. Rotate the cycle selector knob to the 2 O’clock position.
On better model dryers, the error code will appear in the digital display. On good models, the five indicator lights of
Drying, Cool Down, Wrinkle Rid, and
Clean Lint Filter Spin will flash the number of times for the first digit of the code
and the
START indicator light will flash the number of times for the second digit. Take separate counts of each indicator
light, then repeat to confirm in order to be accurate in identifying the proper error code. The code is obtained by counting
the number of times the lights flash. Example E24: The five indicator lights would flash twice indicating the 2 and the
START indicator light will flash four times indicating the 4. The five indicator lights and the
START indicator light start
flashing at the same time. The control will pause for 2 seconds, then repeat the code.
Note: A letter appearing in the code stands for a number higher than nine.
A = 10 B = 11 C = 12 D = 13 E = 14 F = 15
Example Code E4A: the first digit would be 4 and the second digit would be 10. If this code would appear on a dryer in
the Good model line, the five indicator lights would blink four times and the
START indicator light would blink ten times.
Troubleshoot problem by using chart below.
To move on to the next code, press the
OPTIONS button. To clear code, press the
Select button.
To exit this mode, simultaneously press and hold the
Select and
Pause Cancel buttons for six seconds.

I have the same problem
Dryer will start, but sounds three beeps continuously.
Hey CJ, Did you ever find a fix for this problem?
After replacing heating coil assembly can not get to start. All I get is flashing control light and 3 beeps.
