Derf, E1 means an open thermistor. If this is a front loader, remove the lower panel by removing the 3 screws on the bottom panel. The thermistor will be sitting right behind the blower housing next to a white thermal fuse. The thermistor is the black one. If this is a standard model the lower panel should open by sliding a puddy knife on the two clips and pulling foward. The thermistor is in the same place as a front loader. Your part number should be 3976615. An easy job. Don't forget to kill the power to the unit when repairing...Good luck.

Warning! To avoid personal injury or even death, always disconnect your appliance from its power source--that is, unplug it or break the connection at the circuit breaker or fuse box--before you do any troubleshooting or repair work on your appliance. Also, because some components may have sharp edges, use caution while working on your appliance.

Electric dryers aren't very complicated. Here are some common symptoms that you may experience with your dryer:

There's an error code on the digital display

It doesn't work at all
There's no heat
It won't tumble
Drying is too slow
It overheats
It seems to run forever
It's noisy
It won't start
The light doesn't work
It blows fuses or trips the circuit breaker
My clothes smell bad!
My clothes are marked or torn

What does F-1 mean on a Duet front load dryer? Our dryer's lights will turn on but, the dryer will not start up. At first we thought the control panel was locked out. But, it wasn't.

The "F-1" error code means a failure occurred with the electronic controls.. This could mean that wires are broken, the electronics shorted out or a manufacturer's default error shut the washer down.

Prevention/Solution: The electronic control panel needs replacement. Find your dryer serial number and search for the part online. This is a lengthy job that usually requires a repairman unless you have dealt with and repaired dryers before.

If your dryer was purchased within the past couple of years, the dryer could be covered under the warranty. Visit the Whirlpool customer service page for more information or Whirlpool-Duet-Dryer-fault-codes

Hope this helps.

Electric dryer keeps stopping

Most likely, the operating thermostat has failed, and the high limit thermostat turns off the dryer when it gets too hot. When it cools down, it will start again.

My whirlpool dryer just beeps when you try to start it. The panel is lit up the door is shut, push start and it just beeps...any idea what the problem is

To unlock the Control Locked feature:
Press and hold the End Of Cycle Signal button for 3 seconds to turn this feature off.

NOTE: When the dryer is running and Control Locked light is on, the dryer can be stopped by pressing the Pause/Cancel button, but cannot be restarted until the control is unlocked.

If holding doesn't unlock the feature, it is likely a faulty interface. I am having the same problem with my Whirlpool dryer and it is the interface, but it seems that a lot of people are able to correct the issue just by pressing the End of Cycle button for 3 minutes.

Here is a link to parts, numbers, and prices from Sears:

Over-oiled Hunter Original ceiling fan When I tried to I oil one of my Hunter Original fans for the first time, I obviously did not understand how you measure the oil in the reservoir and, long story short, I added too much oil. I wiped as much of it out of the light fixture as I could, and when I noticed there was oil dripping from the end of the pull chains for the fan and the light, l wrapped pieces of an old rag around the end of each rubber bands to hold the fabric onto the chains. I then put the fabric wrapped chain ends in small ziploc bags and sealed them either side of the chain so they wouldn't fall off. All this was to prevent oil from continuing to drip onto my kitchen table as it had originally. They've been like that for what's probably been 6 to 8 months as I believe the over-oiling incident happened last fall. I haven't really tried to do anything about it until now when it's starting to get to the point here in the Florida Panhandle where I'd really like that fan above my kitchen table to work. But I'm afraid to turn it on because I've read that oil would get all over the flywheel if you to put too much oil in the reservoir, and it would spray out everywhere if you turned on the fan. I didn't worry about it over the winter although I do sometimes reverse them and use them when it's really cold out but we didn't even have that cold a winter so I pretty much ignored it until now. I'm pretty sure there's no more oil coming out of the fan down the pull chains because the small amounts of oil captured in the ziploc bags certainly hasn't increased and I think some of it has actually evaporated because it seems like there's less than there was earlier although it's not like I've measured it. I will, of course, start by measuring the oil in the reservoir. I wonder if it's possible some of it has evaporated. And I was wondering whether if it's still overfilled I might be able to suck out some of the oil with an eyedropper. But the question about there possibly being oil on the flywheel is still kind of freaking me out. Is there any way I can deal with this without having to take down the fan? I simply can't do that myself because it's way up high and they are too heavy for me to hold while standing way up on a I had an electrician install all my 4 Hunter Original fans for that reason. I can call an electrician to care of this if I need to, but I'm hoping I won't need to. Does anyone out there have experience with this situation and what I can do to help get my fan working before it gets even hotter out here in the Florida Panhandle? Is my idea of sucking oil out of the reservoir with an eye dropper, for example, legitimate? Is it possible oil that got on the flywheel has evaporated over time, or that the oil which slowly ran down the pull chains came from the area where the flywheel is and that perhaps there's no more to fly out of the fan if I turn it on? Does anyone know how much oil that little oil reservoir holds or how deep it is? That's all the questions I can think of for now. I hope someone who might read this has the knowledge to help me. I looked all over online and all I could find was about how to add oil - the exact opposite of what I want to do! I should note that I haven't called the Hunter Fan Company because it's not like these fans are under warranty, I don't think as I bought all four of mine on eBay. I guess I have paperwork with the model numbers and that sort of thing but I thought I'd start here because it's easier and friendlier than many customer service personnel are.
