View Full Version : Kenmore elite he4 - control panel shows two lights but not working


HE4T Dryer
Jan 18, 2010, 11:52 AM
I've had a Kenmore Elite HE4T Dryer for the past four years and it's been working fine without a glitch until recently. A week ago, my dryer stopped working. I pressed random buttons and somehow got it to start again but yesterday, it stopped completely and I haven't been able to restart it.

Now, the inside light still comes on but the control panel is almost completely dead (I say almost because three buttons are still lit up: "damp" indicator, the "normal cycle" button, and the "extra dry modifier" indicator). When I press certain buttons, these three lights go away, but otherwise, my panel seems unresponsive.

I've tried drying the control panel in case there was any moisture (didn't work) and I drained the battery and restarted it (also didn't work). Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem may be or what I should do next?

Thanks in advance!
