Good Afternoon Friend,
I understand that the timer on your Electrolux dryer, model#EIMED55IIW, is not advancing to show you how much time is left on the dry cycle. I suggest resetting your appliance, by either unplugging it or shutting the power off at your homes circuit breaker, for 3-5 minutes. Restore power and restart your dryer. I ask that you please follow up with a comment on the post, at your convenience, to advise if further troubleshooting is needed or if your dryer status has changed successfully.
-Best Regards-

Good Morning Ray, this is Z. Thank you for your question!
From what you have described it sounds like your Electrolux dryer may either have a communication error from the main control board or the timer itself may not be operating correctly. You can attempt resetting your dryer by unplugging it or flipping off the breaker for about ten minutes. If the problem still persists, it would be advisable to contact an experienced appliance repair tech to assist further.
That is not a standard code. You won't find it on the Electrolux site. I can infer nothing from that. You can either try the general troubleshooting tips for Electrolux dryers OR try to contact Electrolux customer support. Since I have no access to whatever this code means, I can't assess the problem. Here is a troubleshooting video for Electrolux dryers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dDqrB3nk2s
Hello,
I am not sure what your Dryer model is or its age but it could well be that there is a plug loose on the main control board or some fault on the wiring inside the top behind the display panel.You could check to see if this is the case but make sure the mains power is off first,remove the top lid and check,or It would be best to get in touch with Electrolux to see if a repair is covered under the Warranty.
Hope this helps.
This error code indicates the water is overheating during the wash cycle. The first thing to check is if the water inlet hose is connected to the cold outlet and not the hot one. If the hose is properly connected, the temperature sensor will need to be checked and if faulty, replaced.
Difficult without a Model. Electrolux make about a thousand dryers!
To reset your Electrolux dryer, press and hold the "temperature" and "dryness" buttons simultaneously. Keep these buttons depressed for at least six seconds to reset the machine. If this doesn't clear your error code, you likely need service.
I don't know if modern dryers use electronics to regulate the element temperature and protect against overheating but if yours is like that it is clear they aren't doing the job.
Older dryers don't have temperature regulation and mostly don't need it - the only reason they overheated was if airflow was restricted and then the thermal cutout would trip, resetting itself as it cooled. Usually the system is bulletproof because of safety concerns.
I am wondering if the element you are fitting might be for the wrong voltage or if it is a dual element whether it is being connected correctly...
I suspect either the lint trap is completely stopped up or the dryer hose is clogged up. From the limited information I have to go on I doubt it is a thermal fuse.
