I just now fixed my Samsung, which had the same problem. The drum would not stop spinning - even after the control panel was turned "off".

Apparently the problem was that the "fluff" mode, or "wrinkle free" mode had been activated and needed to complete its full cycle. Turning off the machine, or even unplugging it would not interrupt the "fluff" mode. Apparently Samsung takes its wrinkles VERY seriously!

To "fix" it, I turned the fluff cycle to the lowest possible time and just let it finish its cycle. I suppose the cycle might have run its course if I let it go the full regular time, but that is 3 hours! Anyway, the dryer works fine now.

Good luck with yours.

Glad to hear that you got it fixed.

And thanks for getting back to us. Now when others search for a similar problem they will see what actually worked instead of just suggestions about what could be the cause.

Replacing the control board fixed the problem. The relay for the motor was shorted in the closed position.

Basically that is what you have to do.

Everything else seems to check out OK so all that is left is the control board.

If you order from AppliancePartsPros they will allow you to return the board if it does not fix your problem.
Please see teir return policy.

Thanks Denman, but already had the tech sheet. Test #5 has all scenarios except if the control panel is working. Still have no way to diagnose the control board. Guess I have to buy a new one to test.

Here are your parts

See the attachment for the tech sheet.

You could check the control panel/keypad but it does sound like the control board is toast.

Still won't stop spinning.:confused: I now just leave the door open when not in use.

Your model number seems to be missing several digits at the end.
Please check it.
