Electrolux PerfectCare / GentleCare Heat-Pump Dryer: Motor drive general malfunction E50; drum drive motor fails to turn or stops unexpectedly during tumble sequence.
On Electrolux (Electrolux PerfectCare / GentleCare Heat-Pump Dryer) models: Motor run capacitor degraded (nominal 7–10 μF), defective motor windings (main ~18–25 Ω, aux ~22–30 Ω), open thermal cut-out, or drive triac failure.
Measure motor run capacitor with capacitance meter (must read within ±5% of rating). Check winding resistances with ohmmeter. Hold Start/Pause and Delay Start together for 5 seconds on program position 10 until the acoustic chime sounds and display resets to 0:00.
