Electrolux ELFE7637AW 7.6 cu ft Electric Dryer with Steam and Sensor Dry EAF Error Fix: Power Supply Error

Error code EAF on the Electrolux ELFE7637AW 7.6 cu ft Electric Dryer with Steam and Sensor Dry means: Power Supply Error. The control board has detected an issue with the incoming power supply. For electric dryers, this requires 240V split-phase (two 120V legs). Check the dryer outlet with a voltmeter — measure between L1 and L2 (should be 230-240V), L1 to neutral (115-120V), and L2 to neutral (115-120V). A tripped breaker on one leg will result in 120V total, which is insufficient. Check the dryer power cord connections at the terminal block. Ensure the circuit breaker is a double-pole 30A breaker with both sides tripped together.
