Miele Dryer Error Code F32

• Dryer stops mid-cycle and displays F32 error code
• Clothes remain damp or wet after cycle completion
• No heat is produced during the drying cycle
• Dryer runs but takes significantly longer to dry clothes
• Burning smell coming from the dryer
• Visible error message on the control panel

• Failed heating element (most common cause on USA 240V models)
• Faulty thermal sensor or thermistor
• Broken or disconnected wiring to the heating element
• Malfunctioning thermal fuse that has blown due to overheating
• Control board failure preventing power delivery to heating element
• Lint accumulation blocking airflow and causing thermal sensor to shut down
• Defective moisture sensor affecting temperature regulation
• High voltage supply issues related to 240V electrical connection

• Check your home's circuit breaker panel to ensure the 240V breaker serving the dryer has not tripped; reset it if necessary
• Unplug the dryer or turn off the dedicated circuit breaker and wait 60 seconds, then restore power to perform a full system reset
• Remove and inspect the lint filter, cleaning out all accumulated lint thoroughly
• Check the external dryer vent on the back of your home to ensure it is not blocked by lint, debris, or bird nests
• Inspect the flexible dryer vent hose (if accessible) for kinks, disconnections, or blockages that could restrict airflow
• Ensure you are not overloading the dryer drum; try running a smaller load to test
• Verify the dryer door closes completely and latches securely with an audible click
• Empty all pockets from clothing and remove any items that may have fallen between the drum and door seal
• Run a test cycle on an air-dry or cool setting to determine if heat is the only issue
