LG Tromm DLE2515S?

Whe I turn on my 2 yr old dryer it has "check filter" light flashing and other lights flicker. When I hit start it runs for about 2 seconds before going off. I noticed the last few times I used it on sensor dry that it would get stuck at 6 minutes and not shut off. Now it no longer works. Help!! (Filter is cleaned after every use)

I am unsure of the model number on my LG dryer but I was having the same issue. I wasn't able to pull the machine out alone so I just turned the breaker off for five minutes and low and behold it is working again! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Thanks so much. A few minutes of looking this up and unplugging the dryer saved us some money.

thank heavens for the above posting. Just called the repair guy. $55.00 to just come and look at this dryer. We vacummed it all out, took apart the looooong vent tubes and cleaned them. Still did not work. Found this online forum. We unplugged the dryer, waitied a while, plugged it back in and WOO HOO! Working just fine.

Happy housekeeper!

I had exactly the same problem. Try resetting the computer in the dryer by unplugging the dryer or shutting off the power at the breaker for a minute.
