The Logic Verdict

Airflow or Element. Usually a clogged vent caused the element to overheat and die.

What It Means

The HE code stands for Heating Error.

Common Causes

  1. Clogged exhaust vent (House side).
  2. Burnt out heating element.
  3. Bad thermistor.

Step-by-Step Fix

  1. Clean Vent: Go outside and check the exhaust hood.
  2. Test Element: Check continuity on the heating coil. If infinite ohms, it’s broken.
  3. Replace Kit: Buy a kit with element + thermostats.
