How Samsung Dryers Are Built
Many Samsung dryers have a built-in vent blockage test started from the control panel that reports a clog code (such as CLg or C80) when exhaust airflow is restricted. Source: Samsung US - Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer
Sensor Dry cycles rely on two curved metal moisture-sensor bars inside the front of the drum near the lint filter housing, and fabric softener sheet residue on them can make cycles end with damp clothes. Source: Samsung US - Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer
Common Samsung Dryer Problems
- Dryer not heating. Run Time Dry briefly to confirm there is no heat, then check the 240V outlet or gas supply, cycle the breaker, and run the vent blockage test. Source: Samsung US - Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer
