  • How to Fix Electrolux Dryer Error E32

    How to Fix Electrolux Dryer Error E32

    Error Code: E32 Difficulty: Hard

    Problem: Moisture sensor frequency is too low.

    How to Fix E32 Error (Step-by-Step)

    1. Disconnect the dryer from the electrical outlet to prevent shock.
    2. Locate the moisture sensor bars (Part 134786110) inside the dryer drum. Inspect them for any foreign objects, such as a coin or paperclip, that could be shorting them out.
    3. Clean the sensor bars with rubbing alcohol and a clean cloth to remove any potential conductive residue.
    4. Access the back of the moisture sensor and inspect the wire harness (Part 5304515376). Ensure the wires are not pinched, frayed, or shorting against the dryer’s metal chassis.
    5. Disconnect the sensor harness from the main control board and test the sensor circuit for continuity. A continuous short indicates a problem with the wiring or sensors.
    6. If the sensors and wiring are in good condition, the problem points to a failure in the main control board (Part 134994700), which will need to be replaced.
    7. Carefully install the new control board, reconnect all harnesses, and reassemble the unit.
    8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

    How to Fix Electrolux Dryer Error E31

    Error Code: E31 Difficulty: Hard

    Problem: Moisture sensor frequency is too high.

    How to Fix E31 Error (Step-by-Step)

    1. Unplug the dryer from the power outlet and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
    2. Open the dryer door and locate the two metal moisture sensor bars (Part 134786110) inside the drum, usually near the lint filter housing.
    3. Clean the surfaces of the sensor bars thoroughly with a cotton ball or soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol. This removes any film from fabric softener sheets or detergents.
    4. Trace the wires from the sensor bars back to the main control board. Check the wire harness (Part 5304515376) for any loose connections, breaks, or damage.
    5. If cleaning the sensors and checking the wiring does not resolve the issue, the fault is likely with the main control board (Part 134994700).
    6. Access and replace the main control board, carefully transferring all wire connections to the new board.
    7. Reassemble the dryer and test a sensor-dry cycle and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
    8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
