First unplug dryer and test your heating element for continuity with a multimeter if it has more than about 30ohms it is bad.Next check for 220v-240v at the heating element with the dryer running (This is not a test for an amateur. If you are not familiar with electricity I would recommend calling a service tech. If you have 220v-240v there and no heat the heating element is most likely bad. If not then trace the wires back to find the open circuit could be a thermostat or the thermal fuse or just a loose wire/bad connection.

    Mine has the same problem but i also noticed that the lights in the panel are flickering. Unfortunatley, I had to move and had to lay the dryer on its side for a short trip home. I am not wondering if I jarred somethign loose. It is wired using a 3 prong cord. Everything else, timer, drum, settings all seem to be working properly.

The electronic control panel and board has detected a runaway in the temperature and the control board and the heating sensor could be broken on your dryer and need to be replaced.Or the circuit breakers may need replacement then.

Check to see if your thermistor is bad by measure the resistance. It should be 10K Ohms at room temperature.

Maytag neptune dryer has e5 error code
Hi,
I looked up your model and there is no E5 error code listed in the tech sheet.
Download a copy of your tech sheet here.
files.me.com/appliancejunk/e8bg66
When I search the maytag data base this is the service manual it list for your model number.

If the dryer is running but not heating then the relay on the control, ignitor or thermistor are the most likely causes.

It is a model no mde9700ayw and it stops and gives the code hE
This error means there is an issue with with the heating portion of the dryer. Could be the thermistor, or the element, or the control board. You have to use a multimeter to troubleshoot the problem. You unplug the dryer, disconnect the element and use an ohmmeter to test the element for continuity.

The element should be between 10 and 50 ohms if it's good. The thermistor should be around 10,000 ohms at room temperature and if both check good, replace the control board.

Hope this helps.

The dryer only has heat in the two sensor settings. Sensor Dry: wrinkle control and regular.
This is a complicated machine with computer boards and thermistors. Unless you are a Technician or plan on becoming one, you should call a qualified technician.
