Hi,
This is this is the "program Timeout Fault". Meaning the drying time has exceeded program time for that cycle.Press Pause Cancel and SELECT buttons for 6
seconds to exit test modes. Position cycle selector to NORMAL,
temperature selector to HIGH HEAT and touch START. Check for anything
that would extend dry times such as: no heat, restricted vent, blower
fan blade broken or loose, dryer installed in closet with solid door,
or bad connection in moisture sensor bar circuit or dirty bars. If
dryer operates normally but code returns, replace electronic control.
Hope i helped you.
Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
Good Afternoon Butchie111, thank you for your post!
From the information you have provided your Frigidaire dryer is displaying an error code of "EL8" and it will run for 30 seconds then beep the code. I am showing that "EL8" is an invalid code. It could be a possible miscommunication error so I would suggest performing a reset on your dryer and you can do that by disconnecting power from your dryer for roughly ten minutes. If that does not help your issue could you please provide me with the new error code or inform me if your dryer still displays "EL8"? I look forward to your response. -Matt
Hi - Are you certain the error code is E4H? This manufacturer does not have such an existing error code however Frigidaire does have an error code E4A. Typically it indicates a faulty issue with the timeout program. Contact a professional to move forward accurately. Technician will check for anything that would cause extend dry times such as: no heat, restricted vent, blower fan blade broken or loose, dryer installed in closet with solid door, bad connection in moisture sensor bar circuit or dirty bars. If dryer operates normally after it has be diagnose and code returns, the main control will possibly need replacing.
