Dryer displays F30 and may not start or may shut down.

Safety First: Unplug the dryer and shut off the gas supply (if applicable) before servicing. Wear gloves to avoid cuts from sharp metal edges.

• Step 1 – Clean lint path: Remove the lint screen and vacuum inside the lint housing. Remove the front or rear panel to access the blower housing and clear any lint clumps.
• Step 2 – Inspect blower wheel: Check that the blower wheel is not clogged with lint or debris and that it spins freely on the motor shaft. Replace the blower wheel if it is cracked or loose.
• Step 3 – Check exhaust vent: Disconnect the vent hose and inspect for lint buildup or obstructions all the way to the exterior vent hood. Clean thoroughly.
• Step 4 – Test exhaust thermistor: Locate the exhaust thermistor on the blower housing and test its resistance at room temperature. Replace it if the reading is out of specification.
• Step 5 – Reassemble and test: After cleaning and any part replacement, reassemble the dryer, restore power, and run a timed dry cycle to confirm that the F30 error is cleared and airflow is strong at the vent outlet.
