  1. My Samsung dryer has a red grid light that flashes 5 times as I power on the dryer. The dryer does not heat up. I’ve cleaned the vent and the vent going outside. There are no instructions. What do I do next?

  2. I have Samsung dryer not heating. It’s running, just not heating. The error code is :|
    I replaced the heating element. Could it be something else? The coil in the back is not that wound up, nothing clogged there. Any ideas what it might be?

  3. My Samsung dryer keeps stopping and shows a DE error code. We open then shut the door and sometimes it works until end of cycle and sometimes it does it again.

  4. DIY Repair Help Tips

    Lonnie Olson,
    Can you give us the model number of your Samsung dryer?
    Also, could the error code be dO instead of 60 or bO?

    Does the door shut completely, is the door having an issue?
    To test what may be wrong – Push lightly on the door when the dryer is running and see if anything changes.

    We can assist once we have the model number.
    Thanks.

  5. I have a Samsung dryer approximately 10 years old. The dryer will start but after about 8 minuets (on permanent press) I get a code of 60, it could be a code of b0 the 6 or the b is broken. When I use timed dry it will go about 15-20 minuets. I can power off and it will start again but then I get the same message error. I always clean the lint filter after each use. It will show that it is still drying but it is not tumbling.

  6. Samsung electric dryer, model DV50F9A7EVW/A2. Dryer will run for approximately 5 seconds, heating during this time, then shut off and display a HE error code. Also if just turned on and not started, the dryer will also display a HE error code within 5 seconds.

    Dryer working fine but still get the error cose at the end of each cycle – HE. Hate to pay for a service call when the dryer is working – any advice?

  8. I have en electric samsung and the HE code keeps popping up and the clothes are very hot and wrinkled. It’s like the wrinkle prevent isn’t working and maybe its the sensor?
