What's Happening
The dryer detects a voltage problem. The unit may be on an extension cord, sharing a circuit with another appliance, or receiving incorrect voltage. Electric dryers require a dedicated 240V circuit. Related codes include 9C1, 2E, and 9E.
How to Fix It
Make sure the dryer is plugged directly into its own dedicated outlet — never use an extension cord. For electric dryers, verify the outlet provides 240V. Check that the power cord is properly installed. If voltage is correct, the control board may have a power supply fault.
