How to Fix EE Error

UNPLUG THE DRYER. This is an alias for E50, an EEPROM (memory) error on the main control board.
A hard reset (unplugging for 10 minutes) is worth trying but rarely works for this error.
The main control board has failed and must be replaced.
Follow the procedure for code F01: Locate the board, photograph the wiring, label and disconnect all harnesses, swap the board, and carefully reconnect all wires.
