How to Fix F27 Error (Step-by-Step)

  1. Unplug the dryer from the wall outlet to ensure your safety.
  2. Remove the screws from the back of the dryer that hold the top panel in place. Slide the top panel backward and lift it off to access the internal components.
  3. Locate the pressure sensor. It is a small plastic part, often circular or rectangular, with a thin rubber tube and a wiring harness connected to it, usually mounted on the inside wall of the dryer cabinet.
  4. Carefully disconnect the wire connector from the sensor by pressing the release tab and pulling it straight out. Gently twist and pull the thin rubber hose off of the sensor’s port.
  5. The sensor is typically mounted with a single screw or a locking tab. Remove the screw or depress the tab to release the old sensor from its mounting bracket.
  6. Position the new pressure sensor onto the mounting bracket and secure it with the screw or by snapping it into place. Firmly reattach the rubber hose and plug the electrical connector back in until it clicks.
  7. Reinstall the top panel and secure it with the screws. Plug the dryer back in and run a cycle to confirm the error is resolved.
  8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
