d80

Issue:

d80 error codes indicate that the dryer's exhaust duct is clogged 80%, 90%, or 95% respectively. This is most often the result of lint buildup somewhere in the exhaust duct.

Advice:

If a d80 error code appears on the dryer's display, the dryer will shut off automatically after 2 minutes. A warning sound will be heard from the dryer periodically. The quickest and easiest way to troubleshoot these codes is to disconnect the dryer vent and run a load of wet clothes. If the load dries as it should, then the problem resides in your home exhaust system. If the load is still wet, then the dryer may require service.

• 1 - Test without exhaust duct. To get started, you will need a sheer, nylon stocking (to collect lint), medium sized rubberband, and a load of wet laundry. Unplug the dryer from the wall outlet. Remove the vent duct from the back of the dryer. Plug the unit back in, clean the lint filter, and load the wet laundry into the dryer. Select the TIMED DRY cycle for 30 Minutes and press START. If the load is Dry - The vent must be checked for restrictions by a local vent or chimney cleaning company. If the load is Wet - Your dryer will require service. For your convenience, you can request a repair online using our Book a Repair page
• 2 - Lint Buildup. Check for lint buildup at the rear exhaust duct, the lint build up will cause a long time drying in the dryer. If you need the service of a professional technician, contact a local chimney cleaning company to clean the vent.
• 3 - Damaged Exhaust. A crushed or damaged exhaust will also cause air blockage. If possible, check every section of your exhaust duct to ensure it is not crushed, kinked or damaged.
• 4 - Crushed duct. Avoid long runs or runs with multiple elbows or bends. Excess or crushed transition duct. Too many elbows or exhaust too long can also cause long time drying.
• 5 - Ductwork is too long. When the ductwork is too long or has too many bends, blockages can occur, and it will be hard to trace. In this case, check the exterior part of the house when the machine is running to see if exhaust air is blowing outside. For proper inspection and repair of this situation, contact a local chimney cleaning company to clean the vent.
