One possibility is that the thermostat or thermal fuse in the dryer may have failed and needs to be replaced. Another possibility is that the dryer&#8217;s control board may be malfunctioning and needs to be replaced. It could also be a <a href=\"https:\/\/techrene.com\/samsung-dryer-vent-sensor-reset\/\">problem with the venting system<\/a>, such as a clogged vent hose or a malfunctioning vent fan.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s recommended to check the user manual for troubleshooting steps or reach out to customer service for further assistance. If you feel comfortable, you can also try to diagnose the problem by checking the thermostat, thermal fuse and venting system, or contact a professional repair service.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_My_Samsung_Dryer_Stuck_On_Cooling\"><\/span>Why Is My Samsung Dryer Stuck On Cooling<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There could be a few reasons why your Samsung dryer is stuck on &#8220;Cooling&#8221;, and the following possible causes include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>A malfunctioning thermostat<\/strong>: This component controls the temperature in the dryer, and if it&#8217;s not working properly, it could cause the dryer to stay on the &#8220;Cooling&#8221; cycle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A blocked vent<\/strong>: If the vent that carries air out of the dryer is blocked, it could cause the dryer to overheat, which in turn would trigger the &#8220;Cooling&#8221; cycle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A faulty thermal fuse<\/strong>: This component is designed to trip if the dryer overheats, and if it&#8217;s faulty, it could cause the dryer to stay on the &#8220;Cooling&#8221; cycle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A problem with the control board<\/strong>: If the control board is not working properly, it could cause the dryer to stay on the &#8220;Cooling&#8221; cycle or not respond to input correctly.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Samsung_Dryer_Stuck_On_Cooling_Possible_Causes\"><\/span>Samsung Dryer Stuck On Cooling: Possible Causes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Diagnosis is unpleasant for many people because they can\u2019t pinpoint where the problem is coming from. Without the correct information, you may be cleaning or fixing the wrong component. If your Samsung dryer is stuck on cooling or <a href=\"https:\/\/techrene.com\/samsung-dryer-not-heating\/\">not heating up<\/a>, below are some possible reasons.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Inappropriate power supply<\/li>\n<li>Clogged air vent line<\/li>\n<li>Clogged lint filter<\/li>\n<li>Internal wiring issues<\/li>\n<li>Burnt-out thermal fuse<\/li>\n<li>Faulty control board<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Samsung_Dryer_Stuck_On_Cooling_DIY_Fixes\"><\/span>Samsung Dryer Stuck On Cooling: DIY Fixes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Dryers are designed to release hot air to dry clothes. Your dryers settings are just ways to control the amount of heat to release during a cycle. When your dryer is stuck on cooling and not heating up, it could be because there&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/techrene.com\/samsung-dryer-not-starting\/\">a clogged or faulty component<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If your Samsung dryer is not heating up, below are some troubleshooting steps you can take to diagnose and fix the problem.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Check_the_Lint_Filter\"><\/span>1. Check the Lint Filter<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Many models of\u00a0 Samsung dryers won&#8217;t heat up if they can&#8217;t remove hot moist air. The lint filter is the first point that can stop moisture from escaping from the dryer, especially when it&#8217;s clogged. You should always clean the filter after each cycle.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Switch off the dryer and unplug the cord<\/li>\n<li>Open the dryer door and remove the lint filter. (You&#8217;ll find it inside the drum)<\/li>\n<li>Check the lint filter for clogs or debris that might have accumulated and clear it away.<\/li>\n<li>You can clean the lint filter with a pipe cleaner.<\/li>\n<li>Reattach the lint filter and close the dryer door.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Check_the_Vent\"><\/span>2. Check the Vent<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A blocked air vent is one of the significant reasons why Samsung dryers get stuck on cooling and might not be heating up. Over an extended period, the dryer air vent is prone to clogs. Sometimes dirt or small particles might block the vent and thus the passage of airways.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you usually clean the lint filter after each dry cycle, debris and dirt can still get trapped inside the air vent. Consequently, moist air won&#8217;t be able to escape, and clothes will not dry.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some things to consider if you want moisture and heat to have safe passage from your dryer so it can function efficiently.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ensure the air vent is fitted and sealed correctly. Be sure there are no air openings or gaps where lint could accumulate.<\/li>\n<li>The length should not be longer than expected. You can check the user manual for recommendations and instructions.<\/li>\n<li>The vent should be clean and free without any compression<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Check_the_Cycle_Youre_Using\"><\/span>3. Check the Cycle You&#8217;re Using<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes, the problem might not be far-fetched. You might simply be using a cycle that doesn&#8217;t run with heat. Your Samsung dryer has different settings, and some don&#8217;t require heat. You should check your dryer&#8217;s cycles, features, and settings to familiarize yourself.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Check_the_Heating_Element\"><\/span>4. Check the Heating Element<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The dryer heating element is responsible for keeping the dryer hot so it can function efficiently. Generally, if it&#8217;s well-maintained, it should last for over 15 years, but it can also be burnt out because of wear and tear. If the heating element is faulty, the dryer will not heat up. You can check for fault or damage as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Switch off the dryer and unplug the power cord. Turn off the gas if it&#8217;s a gas dryer.<\/li>\n<li>Find the heating element. It is usually surrounded by a metal frame that holds it together<\/li>\n<li>Inspect the element for fault or damage, including the broken coils.<\/li>\n<li>You can also test the heating element for continuity with a multimeter. If the component fails, you will have to replace it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Check_the_Thermal_Fuse\"><\/span>5. Check the Thermal Fuse<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You should also check the thermal fuse if the problem persists. The thermal fuse is a protective part that trips off when overheating. It protects the dryer against power surges or when it doesn&#8217;t work correctly. So, if the fuse blows out or malfunctions, the dryer will not heat up. You can run a diagnostics on the thermal fuse as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Switch off the dryer and unplug the power cord<\/li>\n<li>Remove the dryer back panel to have access to the thermal fuse.<\/li>\n<li>Locate the fuse near the heating element or the blower<\/li>\n<li>Test the fuse for continuity test by using a multimeter<\/li>\n<li>If the fuse is faulty, you should replace it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Check_for_an_Error_Code\"><\/span>6. Check for an Error Code<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Does this issue persist? If yes, perhaps it&#8217;s because other complications have arisen from the problem. Check for an error code in the dryer display panel. If there is, you should find the interpretation and troubleshoot it accordingly.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Reset_The_Dryer\"><\/span>7. Reset The Dryer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You should reset your dryer as a last resort to fix the problem. Most times, when there&#8217;s a problem or error, a simple reset is all that might be required.<\/p>\n<p>Electronic glitches or one-time malfunctions may be cleared when you reset the dryer. However, if the dryer doesn&#8217;t restart, you might need some additional troubleshooting.<\/p>\n<p>You can reset your dryer with the following steps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Switch off the dryer and unplug the power cord<\/li>\n<li>Allow the dryer to rest for about 5 minutes so the electrical charge can clear away.<\/li>\n<li>Your dryer is not reset, and you can start it again<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Contact_Samsung_Support\"><\/span>8. Contact Samsung Support<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If your Samsung washer is still stuck on cooling after applying all the troubleshooting tips, you should contact Samsung support for further diagnosis.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Samsung dryers have a built-in cooling feature that runs after the drying cycle is complete. This feature cools down the drum and the exterior of the dryer to prevent overheating and ensure the safety of the user. It also helps to prevent wrinkles in the clothes and make them easier to fold. Some models also include a &#8220;Wrinkle Prevent&#8221; option which will periodically tumble the clothes without heat to reduce wrinkles while the dryer is off.<\/p>\n<p>If your Samsung dryer cooling cycle is stuck, it could be caused by a malfunctioning thermostat or thermal fuse. These parts are responsible for regulating the temperature inside the dryer and ensuring it doesn&#8217;t overheat.<\/p>\n<p>It could also be caused by a clogged vent which is preventing the hot air from escaping. You should check the vent to see if it is clogged and clean it if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>If the problem persists, it is recommended to call a professional technician to diagnose and fix the issue.<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n  \"mainEntity\": [{\n    \"@type\": \"Question\",\n    \"name\": \"What causes a thermal fuse to fail?\",\n    \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n      \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n      \"text\": \"A thermal fuse can fail due to several reasons such as:\nOverheating caused by a blocked vent or a malfunctioning component in the appliance.\nA defect in the thermal fuse itself.\nA power surge or voltage spike.\nOperating the appliance outside of its intended use or in an environment that exceeds its operating temperature range.\"\n    }\n  },{\n    \"@type\": \"Question\",\n    \"name\": \"What does cooling light mean on dryer?\",\n    \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n      \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n      \"text\": \"The \\\"cooling light\\\" on a dryer typically indicates that the dryer is in the cool-down phase of its cycle.
