Samsung Dryer Shuts Off Mid-Cycle - How to Troubleshoot
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 мар 2016
- In this video I show you how to troubleshoot a Samsung dryer that shuts off mid cycle. There are a few things that will cause your dryer to stop while it's running. It may or may not start back up after it shuts off before the end of a cycle depending on what's wrong with it.
Here is the video where the control is on, but still won't start

thanks so much! Sears repairman couldn't figure out the problem. outside vent clogged. 5 minute fix. you rock!
Really appreciate how detailed you are. Thank you.
Hey Bill, thanks for all the great videos! My dryer would stop after 5 seconds, had a shorted centrifugal switch. The ohm load didn't change when tripping the switch. You saved me some serious repair $$$!!
Rich-how did you repair the centrifugal switch? I beleive inhave the same issue
OMG! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I followed your directions my control board tested bad. The new part arrive today my dryer is fixed!
I can't wait until something else breaks. LOL

I just subscribed! Such an easy video to follow and understand. Very pleasant compared to other “how to” videos on RUclips. Good job and I’ll be watching videos from now on. I just picked up my first appliance to try and fix and resell. I think we’re going to get to know each other lol thank you,

I don't even have a Samsung dryer. I just love learning about appliance repair & your videos are done very well. Thanks
+Jesusmuzik Awesome! Thanks for the great comment and thanks for watching!
Excellent Video bill thank you for sharing!!!!!
Great video. Do you know what a b0 error means. I have the same model dryer as in your video above but cannot find out what the b0 means?
Thank you
Right on time. Thanks Bill! I've got one of these tomorrow.
+Andy Fulenchek Nice, let me know how you make out! Your video is coming soon with frozen water dispenser. I didn't forget!
Appreciate the video...and possibly the first time I've thought of a Penn State guy as trustworthy. :)
Hi bill i have a question im working on a front load fridgedare dryer replaced the heating element and try putting it back but the coils hit with the drum im thinking it could be the rear bearing cup any suggestions..???
Thanks for all your great videos they have been very helpful to me..after graduating from HVAC/R school..tried to fixed appliances and now its HVAC/R & APPLIANCE REPAIR 2 YEARS IN THE INDUSTRY WORKING FOR MY SELF..
Great tips, especially, we are inflation and really needed these. Greatly, appreciated
You saved me about 2k thank you Bill
Thank you, you have solved my Dryer problem.
perfect- you confirmed my suspicions !
thank you
Hey! First off, I love your videos! I have a dryer similar to this one but it is a GE. My dryer stops spinning and drying but all the numbers stay on. To get it to start working again I can turn it off and wait a few minutes then turn it on again and we repeat this ^^^ for about 30 minutes, or I can bang on the top of the dryer and it will start working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You really help to fix my dryer 😊thank you
another good video thx bill
Live saver! Thanks bud!!!
great video sir thank you for sharing it I'm still new to the appliance repair so in new info is greatly appreciated.
R.I.P Bill Newberry you were the only appliance man that explained things to the T. You also show us with a Multi -Meter what reading you need and also how to MacGyver things to see if they worked. you were Awsome at what you did on here. R.I.P Brother!!
He passed away??😢😢
thank you very much very very nice video excellent guidance thank you very much .
but can you make videos on split ac repair job
Clear and concise
Just adding my 2 cents here. Before any disassembly, I would recommend cleaning the two moisture sensors, especially if you use dryer sheets. The sheets create a film over the sensors and they trigger the dryer to shut off early. To do this just wipe the sensors with kitchen scrub pad (or lightly with a fine grit sandpaper) and wipe clean with a damp cloth. The sensors are on the lint filter assembly (they are two long silver sensors. When wet clothes rub across them they short out and this tells the dryer that the clothes are not dry.
Shayne Billey thank you! This worked for me!
Shayne Billey Thank you! Saved me some time and money. Definitely worked me for.
So glad I saw this comment bc that’s exactly what the issue turned out to be!! Thanks for sharing!!
This was my problem. Thank you so much for the comment.
Where are the sensors located? Mine Comes on flashes check lint filter then it goes off and the dryer starts and works for 3 minutes then shuts off.
Hi bill my dryer is not drying clothes completely it leaves damp clothes even though I put it on high temperature my dryer is Samsung electric dry with touch panel smart sensor what to do to fix this problem
I HAVE A SAMSUNG VRT STEAM DRYER, THE DIGITAL PANEL WORKS FINE AND SO DOES THE CYCLE SELECTOR KNOB BUT WHEN I PUSH THE START BUTTON, THE DRUM DOES NOT BEGIN TO SPIN. I CAN MANUALLY TURN IT AND IT HAD NOT BEEN MAKING ANY NOISES. ANY SUGGESTIONS?
Learn from my mistake. I jumped to the worsts case and replaced the motor. Had the same problem. I cleaned and checked EVERYTHING!! Well so I thought. Turns out my ground wire was loose. One turn of a screwdriver and problem solved. My dryer is 9 years old so the motor was probably on its way out, at least it's all clean and lubed up ready for many years of service. 🤞
Hello so I checked everything you said and looks ok but I still have the same problem. I have an electric dryer that turns off in the middle of the cycle and then nothing turns on in the control, as if it had no power, it takes about half an hour for it to turn on again. And then the same everything works fine for 15-20 min and then everything turns off again. I even checked the thermal fuse but it works too. Any idea of what might the problem be?
Bill, I have one of the older model Samsung dryer (MoistureSensor he) and it was working fine until today that it stopped working properly.
What happens is that it turns itself off after like 5 mins. Everything looks n feels normal but it just turns off after mins. I'm thinking the vent "pipe" is full of lint, but what do u think is the problem?
I'd appreciate a quick response. Thanks!
Mine to does this
Another good vid Bill, Question .. Kenmore elite #110.67072600 dryer works and cycles on time dry and heat cycles properly on auto but stalls in last 5 min on auto cycles ? by stall i mean it never shuts off and continues to heat and timer stays at around 5 min. what would you be looking at first? thanks in advance
+Stacy Newman 4 wire thermostat on older dryers, this I believe has the dial in the center with two control boards behind the upper panel. I would still check the thermostat heater. I need to get my hands on one so I can tear it apart. Maybe somebody in the comment section will help shed some light.
Hay Bill thanks for your video's, #2 Samsung Electric dryer EVERYTHING is working just went through hole thing w/Parts,I use it about 2-3 times every month and half or so working one load the next works 2 mins and goes to 1 min and stops and it turns back on right away EVERYTHING IS CLEAN HELP !!!!
Good content! Suuuubscribed!
Is it the same for the flex wash dryer?
Dear Bill, I am searching for a cure to a problem with my Samsung Dryer (DV448AGP/XAA). I just moved from the USA to Egypt and I brought my washer and dryer with me and purchased a 2000watt transformer strictly for the dryer. Within a few moments of plugging in the dryer I get a message "power interruption". I can get the dryer to start a cycle, before that, but as soon as the message appears the cycle stops and the message persists. I'm not sure what to do to fix it. Any ideas?
I have an issue same axact dryer as video, I start mine on normal setting it starts with 52 minutes than after 2 minutes drops to 20 mi utes than after 2 minutes drops to 7minutes and counts down to zero why? Why does it skip 40 minutes of the cycle?
RIP and Semper Fi brother!
thanks for sharing
+Miguel Loza You're very welcome!
I am an engineer and I am THANKFUL for guys like this ONLINE. I am ABLE to figure out such items as a dryer problem, HOWEVER, how many hours in any day do I have? Even in my travels in factory automation I have plenty of engineers in all fields whereby we consult with each other to make our lives easier. I can't imagine though HOW MANY PEOPLE want this guy to fix their dryer for free online. That part would be NO FUN. I think guys like this MIGHT BE, part "Saint" and "Angel." (FYI my dryer keeps shutting off... LMAO, I suspected lint already and cleaned the inside, outside, pipes, and made sure it was open.....) I 'thought' I had it..... but It started again. Maybe a reset. I have had NOTHING but issues with my Samsung dryer.... piece of junk. I've owned MANY different appliances in my life, never Samsung. Out of ALL appliances I've owned they've never given me a lick of trouble. I am "almost" a certified "dryer" engineer. 1 more issue and I add it to my resume and go to work for Bill Newberry. By the way Bill, I know how to use an Ammeter, and am certified to work in high voltage transmission down to low voltage DC. I'm your guy. (Please tell me it pays at least $500 per repair and there are 4 repairs a day. AND the woman are HOT.)
My dryer will run for quite some time, but then loses power completely. It'll fire back up once it seems its cooled off, but will cut out again if there's significant time left on the cycle. I cleaned out the vent and replaced the hose. Is it a problem with the motor or the thermal fuse or something else???
i dont know if you could make a video of the different lines a compressor has like the high side low side and the service valve your videos really help alot
Hey Bill! i found this video from the title. what happens if the dryer just turns off starts then shuts off after a few mins like 3-5 and is throwing no codes and has no bad sounds..
my Samsung dryer it starts and then shuts off right away is giving me a upside down F5 code you know how I can fix this
Is there a standard error code for all Samsungs when they have the issue with the venting system?
Yours has a 3 wire and mine has a 4 wire and is also an aftermarket plug. What if the last owner connect a 4 wire when it was supposed to be a 3 wire? He has the white and green connected on the middle prong. Does that matter ?
Thanks for sharing.
+Pops McCartney You're very welcome!
My dry doesn't have the smooth vent, but also my outlet is through the ceiling into some space somewhere....not outside. What should I do? It does turn on. I will not run til I get details
Hello I need help! My Samsung dryer powers on but when I hit start it trips the breaker. Maintenance has been out 3 times and has changed the breaker, tried looking for clogged vents, changed the outlet and the cord on the back of my dryer. The tech says it has to be the dryer. I just moved to this house and I didn’t have any issues at the previous house. What could the problem be?
Thanks
Hi,
Like your videos ,very good. Ok here is my problem. I have replaced the belt on the Samsung dryer model DV448AEP/XAC, put everything back and found out I forgot to plug the moisture sensor in. Took the dryer apart again, cleaned the sensor and made sure it works. Put everything back and it runs. Resetting the cycles. at first the dryer worked for 3 mins. then shut down. Learned how to do the reset and it works for about 8 mins. on the normal cycle but every time I try to reset with my cycle it does not remember the cycle and shuts down saying the dryer has finished the cycle...after about 8-9 mins. instead of the 51 mins.
Is there a timer and how do I fix it or what the>>>> is wrong..Thanks
Same shit here…
You should make a appliance repair shop and show it off what tools you use and stuff like that for a video
Bill, my samsung dryer wouldnt heat so I put in new thermostat, high limit thermostat and heat coil. Now dryer heats but runs about 10 minutes and shuts off, but unlike in your video, it will turn right back on. Any idea what the problem could be? I vacuumed off the blower fan very well when i had it apart. Completely disassembled duct to outside and cleaned it out as well.ThanksBrian
Brian Celico OD ,
Brian did you ever find out what the issue was for your dryer?
Hi Bill, I have a Samsung electric dryer DV337AEG/XAA The problem I have is similar as to what you described in the video. I start it up and it runs for a few minutes then shuts off. Everything dies (controls do not come on) but has power to control. Some time later, 15 min or so, it comes back on and continues counting down but not running. If you stop it and star again the original issue occurs over again. This seems like the control board is bad or could this be due something overheating and shutting down as a safety till it cools? Just wanted to get your opinion before I order another one. Thanks
Pretty sure Bill passed away
ronin43 oh man.. that’s horrible.. thanks for letting me know. 😔
ronin43 did you solved the problem? mine do the same. Tks.
Jrfox68 - I had the original problem and yeah I fixed it. I took the dryer apart and meticulously cleaned every part off from all the lint and then used dryer exhaust tape to seal everything up inside. It’s been working since.
I have the Samsung drier, moved into a new build , my drier will do one cycle of drying and then power off while tripping the breaker. If I run the drier empty, it will not trip the breaker …any suggestions?
Hi,what can it be?
I turn samsung dryer on and it shots off right away and the fuse(breaker)shots off.thanks
What happens if I don't have the correct voltage where the power cord plugs into the dryer?
My dryer starts up on timed dry, about 20 seconds in it stops for a split second and then keeps going, does the same thing a couple more times and then dies. When it dies, it somehow trips the stove and turns it off. Tf. Any ideas?
My GE dryer is totally dead. no power to the board. Power source and cable is good (checked volts and continuity). Can you just test the continuity to the wire of control board from the plug. It just so many expose wire. Anyway, I did that and there's continuity. Is that mean the board is gone?
bill my Samsung dryer will be, running fine then half way through the cycle it will just turn off, the control makes a weird noice like if the power supply cuts off. Sometimes if i hit the power button it will start up right the way and some times I have to wait longer for it to start. It will run fine for weeks and then again it will do the same problems any suggestions?
thanks in advance.
Mine is doing the same thing, did you ever figure it out?
Hi Bill, my samsung dryer keep tripping the breaker every 20’s everytime i use heat. i wanna ask if the problem is my breaker or thermostat? thanks
jrossano macuto my dryer is doing the same. I have no clue what it is either. I’ve had the breaker replaced, and it is still doing the same thing. Running for 20 minutes, tripping the breaker.
@@TheMichaelAnaya did you fix it? Mine is doing this too
Mine was doing this also, but after taking a look at the motor, I found that it had a bunch of lint on it. This was causing the motor to over heat. I cleaned the lint off and blew it out with some air. Seems to be working good now. The last time I had to work on it was due to the elements going out.... My wife likes to make quilts in the lint trap!!! I think that’s what caused both of these problems...
Scratch that... it shut off again... ordered a new motor... hope it does the trick!
@@lanewatson5487 , did the motor fix your problem? Mine runs for about 5 seconds then shuts of completely, then repeats this about every 2 minutes.
Hi Bill I have a Samsung dryer that works but it runs for about 5min then says cycle complete but the clothes are still damp ? How do I fix that ? Does it have to do with the timer?
Me to?
Go Nitts!!
I have a Samsung steam moisture red dryer and it shut off it do not complete drying it stop at 56 and it goes to 1 and then shut off
Did you learn the problem?
Same thing happens to me all the time
Yep this is my problem. 😔
having the same issue
did you ever figure out the problem
I think your dryer is over loaded. I was trying to dry a queen comforter and it went to 58-56 to 1. I then ran it empty with no problem. Your dryer might be just overloaded.
I start my dryer and after about 15 minutes it stops with the error code FE. I have watched this video and I replaced the motor and previously I had replaced all of the heater element components. So far I am getting the same problem. Sometimes it goes the whole cycle and other times it does this stopping thing and I have to wait and restart it. Any suggestions ?
? I have an electric Samsung dryer it stopped after starting said check lint trap. I cleaned n hose vacuumed out the entire lint trap system hose n outside access but it still stops after starting in 5-10 sec then a min later starts n stops again how can I fix this n is there a reset button I can push. it's only 2 years old
find the moisture sensors. If you stick your head in the dryer and look down and right. Should be 2 silver metal strips. I have seen dryer sheets get stuck on top of them.
TY TY TY - That's exactly what was wrong here :)
I have the same issue but I have already cleaned all lint Everywhere possible, I also cleaned the senors and still no luck. What else could I do to troubleshoot my dryer ? Thank you very much everyone
Hi. My Samsung dryer is showing an FE code. It will start and run for a little bit and the stop and the FE will be displayed. If shut it off and turn it back on it will most of the times work fine until the end of the cycle. What should I look for in order to fix it?
Mine does the same thing. It is either the outlet or the Electronic Control Panel
My samsung dryer set on time dry will only run a few minutes then the cycle ends, it doesn't turn off it end like it ran the complete cycle, anyone have any ideas?
Same problem can’t find a fix yet
Same problem. Did you try cleaning the lent out of the vent pipe
Bill where's the link for the second dryer problem that turns off after 5 minutes?
My dryer turns off in 2 mins
Bill Newberry passed away 3 years ago...

I have a dryer that shuts off randomly. Open door and close and turns on. Sometimes keeps going and others kicks off and have to open door again and close it and press start and goes. Any ideas?
Same issue cleaned all venting no error messages control panel full of dust from lint how do I clean it
Just replace the censor that all, and some cleaning of course will help air flow easily..
Okay our dryer is coming on but jumps to 1 after being on a short time. We clean the sensor and check to make sure lint was not backed up in the hose. There is not an error code showing neither. What is the problem? By the way we just purchased this probably less than a month ago
Did anybody give you and answer i.have the same problem
the lines from a refrigerator compressor thanks
Mine is turning on fine, when I select normal dry the display saying about 55 min. I start it it runs for about 1 minute then the display changes to one minute and shuts off like normal with the chimes and all. But it only ran for a few minutes or so. Thoughts?
Mine is doing that too
Mine is doing this....ugh!
Any fix? Mine did this as well
Ok my son put a durag on the dryer ut sucked into the lint thing and wrapped around the white fan looking thing. I grabbed it pulled it through until i got it out. I dont know the terms of the parts but thats how i fixed it
Contacts on centrifugal switch were burnt not making good contact.....put a wire brush to them and now dryer works fine
my digital timer onn my Samsung dryer,starts at 54 min , went to 34 ,then 41 min i all in about 10 minutes then turned off. how do I fix this?
Hi Jodie were you able to get an answer to this? I'm having the similar problem. My one hour is done in 8-10 mins.
Same with mine. I have no clue what is wrong with it.
my samsung dryer will not power on. if I'm understanding you correctly by falling your steps i need a new control board. your video shows power to the control board, but nothing after the control board. how do i know that its not the power switch?
No power to the unit at all is probably the board. If you have power, but it just wont spin, it could be the exhaust thermal sensor, switch on the motor, or the belt switch.
I replaced the thermal fuse cause that was the problem. Then when i put it back together and ran a quick dry it stopped running after 10min n i think over heated. The timer was still going though
Please help my control board gets power but none of the buttons work...sometimes very random the start button will start the dryer but can't change the cycle and none of the buttons work
Dryer will not stay running after 3 minutes on some cycles it turns off...please help
I changed thermal fuses, etc. Runs on manual setting, timed settings it will run for about 4 minutes.
I replaced the motor and it still runs for a few seconds then stops. It will turn back on after 30 seconds but then stops. What could be the issue now?
um so my situation isnt quite like this. when i turn on the dryer everything is fine but running through a regular cycle never finishes. it stops 5 minutes in and plays the finished tune. the dryer can be use immediately after. it will run entirely through the timed dry run though for an hour so im not sure whats going on so i can use the normal dry cycle
Moisture sensor might need to be cleaned. It’s near the lints trap. If you can’t find one just clean all on the area. If you use dryer sheets check of one is blocking it. I had one stuck on the inside
Mostly, thermal sensors not just clean or not clean of course not clean the air duct will clogged the dryer not made clothes to dryer... I am handy man so I know all these remedies. What u done have to do nothing with cycle shutt off.
My samsung turns on a few seconds, stops for a minute or two then comes on for a few seconds again. Any tips?
