If it's not listed in the rear of your manual??? Then you will need a Technician. Let me know if you find the solution in your book.

SOURCE: Kenmore oasis dryer model 110.6706 flashing F40

Just had one of those calls today......what I found this time was simply that the blue communication wire harness (I think it's a 3 wire, very easy to spot, runs from the side of each control board) had popped loose from the MCU. Inspect each connection for damage, and re-seat the connectors back into the controls. If that doesn't do it, you can measure for voltage (no fun with those tiny connectors) to the MCU. The code F-40 simply means loss of communication between the CCU and MCU. So it actually could be either board. Check it out and re-post if needed.

SOURCE: error code F44

The F44 error code on this type of dryer indicates a blower motor control board failure. Since it happens only occasionally, then you could have a loose wiring connection or a partial obstruction in the blower housing. Complete details of the troubleshooting for this error code are included in this link of a previous answer: What does the fault code F44 indicate on my Kenmore Elite Oasis dryer?

I recommend that you unplug the dryer and check the wire harness connections if you are confident that you can safely access the internal dryer components. If you find a loose connection, then tightening it or plugging the harness securely into the connection will likely correct this problem.

SOURCE: Kenmore Elite Oasis Electric Dryer - no power (PF code)

Press and hold the "Start" button to restart the dryer cycle if the "PF" (power failure) error code appears. This code often appears when a cycle is interrupted before it completes. You may also check the breaker or household fuse, and ensure the machine has not come unplugged.

My Kenmore Elite Oasis dryer has a CF code and continuously beeps. Running or not.

The CF error is a communication failure between the main computer and the touch panel...you may have a bad or weak connection or a bad computer..I wold recommend that you contact your local Sears and ask them about recalls, and for service should this happen again.

Dryer wont run gave me f40 code, can you help me?

I found two possibilities for an F40 code.

1) Error Code F40 is that the thermal fuse has blown.

2) The F40 error code is a communication problem between the machine control board and motor control board. A bad connection might or might not cause this.

Model 110.78082701 F40 error code what does it tell is bad?

F40 is a error that appears between the machine control and the motor control when communication becomes lost. I had this same issue. My dryer would run and heat up but then stop and give me the f40. I measured all thermisters and everything was in range. The tech sheet stated that I needed to buy a new control board and I did. Same problem.
The solution was a loose connection on for p4. I took needle nose pliers and squeezed the connector to make it fit tight on the board and everything is working now.
Bottom line, expensive dryer with cheap connectors.

Kenmore elite oasis dryer model #110.6708 will not operate. flashes f-40. what does f-40 mean?

F40 = thermal fuse blown.
If the fuse is OK the error points to a communication problem between the machine control board and motor control board (check connectors).

My Kenmore Oasis Dryer will not run and has an F 40 code. What is wrong with it?

Get the model number and go to:

http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/modelHelp.pd?pop=flush&modelNumberId=18

The F40 code can mean a thermal interrupt or a loss of connection between the control circuit board and the motor circuit board.

Perito posted this on askmehelpdesk.com:

1) Error Code F40 is that the thermal fuse has blown.
2) The F40 error code is a communication problem between the machine control board and motor control board. A bad connection might or might not cause this.

If you post your model number, or download the owner's manual from the above link, you'll probably find out what it means, at least.
