F12Warning
Fisher & Paykel Dryer F12 Error Code
The dryer detects restricted airflow, often due to lint buildup in the venting system.
Common causes
- Blocked lint filter
- Kinked or long vent hose
- Lint accumulation in ductwork
How to fix it
- Clean the lint filter thoroughly.
- Inspect vent hose for kinks or crushing; straighten or replace.
- Disconnect vent hose and check for blockages; use a vent cleaning kit.
⚠ When to call a pro: If no blockage found but error persists, the airflow sensor may be faulty; call a pro.
