Tumble dryer displays error code EBD

Issue

• Tumble dryer displays error code EBD or EHD

Applies to

• Tumble dryers

Resolution

The first step in diagnosing a problem with a tumble dryer displaying the EBD or EHD error code is to check whether the socket the appliance is plugged into is working properly. If possible, try another socket to make sure it is receiving power correctly.

The next step is to check the grounding of the appliance. Grounding is essential for the safe operation of most electrical appliances, and its absence can lead to equipment malfunction or even pose a life-threat.

If the electrical outlet is functioning correctly and a ground connection is established, yet the EBD error still appears on the dryer's display, we recommend contacting an authorized service center.

Important: Attempting to fix the electrical problem yourself without the appropriate qualifications may cause further damage to the appliance or put the user at risk.
