It signals to the control board that the door is closed and the dryer can start running.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nIf the control board doesn\u2019t sense the door switch opening properly over 5 cycles, it will throw the 008 error code.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nYour door switch may be stuck if:\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list -->\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>The door switch has gone bad<\/li>\r\n \t<li>There\u2019s damage to the door switch wiring<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The control board has failed (very rare and would most likely be causing other problems)<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<!-- \/wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading -->\r\n<h2><strong>Keep safety first<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list -->\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Always power off and unplug your appliance or switch off the circuit breaker before you attempt any maintenance or replacement work. This keeps you safe by preventing any risk of electric shock.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>If the appliance has recently been used, give it plenty of time to cool down before working on it.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Take your time while working to prevent accidents and personal injuries. Rushing is the enemy of precision.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Work in a well-lit area so you can clearly see and access appliance parts.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Keep your workspace free of clutter and other obstacles. Keep children and pets away from the work area.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Check the user manual to see if there are specific installation or safety instructions related to your appliance or replacement part.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Be gentle when handling or removing parts. Excessive force might damage the appliance or cause personal injury.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Wear insulated work gloves to protect your hands from sharp metal parts and debris.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>When working with wires, avoid touching any exposed wires or terminals. If you need to touch a wire, use a non-conductive tool or wear insulating gloves to prevent electrical shock.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Don\u2019t test live voltage with a multimeter if you\u2019re unfamiliar with how to prevent short-circuiting.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<!-- \/wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<strong>Read more: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/dryer-settings-the-ultimate-guide\/\"><strong>Dryer Settings: The Ultimate Guide to Understanding, Using, and Maintaining Your Appliance<\/strong><\/a>\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading -->\r\n<h2><strong>How to troubleshoot the 008 error<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\r\n<h3>Step 1 - Check the door switch<\/h3>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nIf the door can close correctly and you\u2019re still seeing a 008 error, you\u2019ll need to check the door switch, which is located behind the front panel of the dryer.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list {\"ordered\":true} -->\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Turn off the dryer and disconnect it from the power outlet.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Remove the front panel to access the door switch.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Inspect the switch. Make sure the switch lever moves smoothly when operated by hand.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-use-a-multimeter-to-check-appliance-parts\/\"><strong>Use a multimeter<\/strong><\/a> to check the switch for continuity (has a sideways WiFi symbol).<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<!-- \/wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nWith the door open, you should get continuity across the COM and NC (normally closed) switch terminals and the meter should beep. When the door is manually closed, you should no longer get continuity.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nThen test the door switch from the COM to the NO (normally open) switch terminals. There should be continuity when the door is closed but no continuity when the door is open.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nIf the switch doesn\u2019t show continuity at the proper time, then the switch contact is stuck.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list {\"ordered\":true,\"start\":5} -->\r\n<ol start=\"5\">\r\n \t<li>Make sure the door switch wires are intact and secure.

Look for any bare or shorted wires that could be grounding out the circuit. If you find any damage, replace the wiring.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Door switch wires are often routed through the front panel top. Make sure the wires aren\u2019t pinched or chafed here.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Check the wire terminals for any corrosion or burned contacts.

Refer to your dryer\u2019s service manual for the exact location.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Take pictures or make notes of the wiring to the board.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Carefully disconnect all wire harnesses, ribbon cables, and ground wires connected to the control board.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Remove any screws or fasteners securing the old control board, then lift it out.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Install the new control board and reconnect all wiring harnesses and cables exactly as the old one was connected, referring to your pictures\/notes as you go.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Reassemble the dryer.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Restore power to the dryer.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Start a test cycle to see if the new control board resolves the error code.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<!-- \/wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<strong>Read more: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-clean-a-dryer-vent\/\"><strong>How to Clean a Dryer Vent<\/strong><\/a>\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading -->\r\n<h2><strong>More information<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nThank you for reading!
