Kenmore dryer codes

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. Check the model-number prefix first: the same Kenmore code can mean different things depending on the manufacturer.

Models covered: Kenmore Elite 796 series (LG-built), Kenmore 110 series (Whirlpool-built), Kenmore 417 series (Frigidaire-built).

About Kenmore codes

Kenmore is a private label, and the factory that built your unit decides which fault codes it shows. The first digits of a Kenmore model number (110, 417, 665, 795, 796 and so on) tell you whether Whirlpool, LG, Electrolux or Frigidaire made it. Check the model label on your unit before using any chart.
