How to Fix Od Error

This error means the dryer is taking too long to dry. The most common cause is a clogged vent. First, perform a full vent cleaning from the dryer to the outside.
If the vent is clear, disconnect power from the dryer before proceeding.
The thermistor may be faulty. Test its resistance with a multimeter. It should be around 10,000 ohms at room temperature.
If the thermistor is good, the heating element may be partially burned out. Test the element for continuity. If it fails, it needs to be replaced.
