# Bosch dryer error code E06

### What this one means

There is a problem in the heating circuit. It is a code the manufacturer publishes for this appliance, not one we have worked out — and it is decoded here rather than left as three characters on a display.

### What the code covers

A published cause names a circuit rather than a component, which is the single most useful thing to know before ordering a part. This one covers:

- The heating element
- The safety devices around it

### Worth doing before you call

- Note whether the drum turns and the cycle runs while producing no heat

### Then what

The manufacturer’s own guidance is that this one needs a technician, and we agree with it — a heating element and its cut-outs inside a sealed cabinet is not a home repair, and the failure modes are not forgiving.

This code is published for dryers. The [full list of codes](https://boschmiami.support/error-codes/) has the rest of them, searchable, including the labels older and newer machines use for the same conditions.
