Reading the dryer display

On a dryer the code shows in the time-remaining window or as blinking status lights. Write down the characters before you press anything, because starting a new cycle usually clears the display. Amana models often flash lights instead of printing text, so count the flashes.

Amana is a Whirlpool Corporation brand sold mostly through builder and value channels. Its entry-level washers, dryers and ranges use the simpler Whirlpool-family control boards, so the codes are short and often shown as flashing lights. The codes apply to model numbers such as ADB1200AWS, ADB2200AWS and NDE2330AYW; check the label on your unit to confirm yours.

What causes 0g

How to fix it

  1. Cycle the power: switch off the dryer breaker (or unplug it) for one minute, restore power, then start a timed dry cycle and watch for the code.
  2. Reset power and see whether the code clears; note when it returns (at start, mid-cycle, at random).
  3. Inspect all harness plugs on the main board for heat discoloration, loose pins or pinched wires.
  4. Check the wiring diagram for the model and test the circuit named by the code for continuity.
  5. Replace the main control board only after the harness and the part it drives test good.
  6. Run a full short cycle or function again and confirm the code stays gone before putting the appliance back into normal use.

Questions

What does 0g mean on a Amana dryer?

It is a fault code from the Amana control. It indicates a problem with the control electronics. A power reset is the first thing to try.

Can I keep using the dryer while it shows 0g?

You can try it after a power reset. If the code returns, the affected function may not run properly, so it is worth fixing soon before it causes a bigger failure.

Do I need a technician to clear 0g?

Often yes. Part of this repair means testing live circuits or replacing a control board, so a technician is the safer choice unless you are comfortable with electrical diagnosis.
