Kenmore 11069132413 electric dryer Parts

To hard reset your Kenmore electric dryer model 11069132413, turn the dryer off, unplug it (or switch the breaker off) for about 1 minute, then restore power and start a new cycle. This clears many temporary control glitches and power-failure states.

Hard reset steps (safe, quick)

• Touch Power to turn the dryer off.
• Unplug the power cord (or turn both dryer breakers off).
• Wait 60 seconds.
• Plug back in (or turn breakers on).
• Touch and hold START/PAUSE for up to 3 seconds to begin a cycle.
• If the display shows PF, touch START to clear it, then press and hold START to resume.

What to check if it still will not start

A “reset” will not bypass a safety switch or a failed part. Check these common causes:

• Door not fully closed (door switch not made)
• START/PAUSE not held long enough (this model requires a press-and-hold)
• Tripped breaker or blown fuse (electric dryers typically use two fuses/breakers)
• Low line voltage (L2 code); the dryer can run but not heat
• Overheating/airflow restriction; clean lint screen and confirm the vent is not crushed or kinked

Quick code and symptom guide

What you see	What it usually means	What to do next
PF	Power failure interrupted the cycle	Clear PF, then restart/resume the cycle
L2	Low/no line voltage to heater	Check both breakers/fuses; verify cord installation
Check Vent light	Restricted airflow	Clean lint screen; inspect vent run for clogs/kinks
Drum turns, no heat	One breaker/fuse tripped or heater circuit issue	Reset both breakers; then troubleshoot heating circuit

Why it matters

Hard resets fix temporary electronic lockups, but repeated PF, L2, or Check Vent warnings point to power supply or airflow problems that can cause long dry times, no-heat complaints, and repeated thermal safety trips.

For model-specific control behavior and diagnostic messages, use the 11069132413 owner's manual. For power-cord and breaker setup details, use the 11069132413 installation guide. If you suspect an overheating shutdown, replacing a failed safety device such as the thermal fuse W10909685 is a common repair after the venting issue is corrected.

On Kenmore electric dryer model 11069132413, an “F” code on the display means the control detected a fault. In this model’s guide, codes shown as “F# E#” indicate the dryer needs service after you try basic reset and airflow checks in the 11069132413 owner's manual.

What you should do first

• Touch any key to clear the code from the display.
• Unplug the dryer (or switch off the breaker) for 1 minute, then restore power.
• Restart a heated cycle and watch for the code to return.
• Clean the lint screen and confirm the lint screen is seating correctly.
• Check the vent run for kinks, crushing, or heavy lint buildup.

Common “F” code situations vs. what they mean

What you see on the display	What it usually indicates	What to check right away
F# E# (example: F1 E1, F3 E1)	Control detected a problem that requires service	Power reset, airflow, wiring connections you can safely access
PF	Power failure interrupted the cycle	Clear PF, then press and hold Start to resume
L2	Low or no line voltage; heater may not turn on	Breakers/fuses (electric dryers use 2), cord installation

Why airflow and temperature sensing matter

Restricted venting can overheat the dryer and trigger faults. If your dryer is also running hot, taking too long to dry, or shutting down mid-cycle, address airflow first. If the code points to temperature sensing, a failed thermistor can cause incorrect temperature readings; the dryer thermistor WP8577274 is a common related part for this model.

When parts are commonly involved

If the “F” code returns immediately after a reset and the venting is clear, these are common areas to inspect during diagnosis:

• Thermistor and its wiring (temperature sensing)
• Main harness connections at the control and sensor
• Control panel and user interface connections
• Heating circuit components if overheating occurred

For Kenmore electric dryer model 11069132413, the installation dimensions are 29 in. wide x 32 1/8 in. deep x 42 7/8 in. high (door closed). For the most accurate fit planning, we recommend confirming clearances and door-swing space in the installation guide.

Dimensions and space planning

Use these measurements to confirm the dryer fits your laundry area and can be serviced.

• Width (door closed): 29 in. (737 mm)
• Depth (door closed): 32 1/8 in. (814 mm)
• Height: 42 7/8 in. (1089 mm)
• Depth with door open: 56 1/4 in. (1428 mm)
• Recommended rear clearance (typical): at least 6 in. for the exhaust vent elbow

Quick reference table

Measurement	Door closed	Door open
Width	29 in.	29 in.
Depth	32 1/8 in.	56 1/4 in.
Height	42 7/8 in.	42 7/8 in.

Why it matters

Correct sizing prevents installation problems like a door that cannot fully open, crushed venting that causes long dry times, and insufficient clearance for leveling and service access.

Related installation notes we use for this model

These common requirements help you plan the full footprint, not just the cabinet size:

• Allow extra space for walls, doors, and baseboards
• Add spacing on all sides to reduce noise transfer
• Closet installs need top and bottom air openings in the door
• A level floor matters; excessive slope can affect tumbling and sensor cycles

If you are ordering maintenance parts while planning the install, our Sears PartsDirect catalog for model 11069132413 includes common wear items like the dryer drum support roller WPW10314173 and belt-4 rib, W10849499.
