How to Fix F2E2 Error

Unplug the dryer.
Access the main control and user interface boards by removing the top and/or rear panels.
Carefully inspect the wire harness that runs between the two boards. Look for any loose plugs, pinched wires, or signs of corrosion on the pins.
If the harness looks damaged, replace it. If the harness appears fine, the User Interface board is the most likely faulty part.
Replace the User Interface board, ensuring all connections are secure.
