Unfortunately you have a bad computer board that needs to be replaced. Apparently, a grounded fault found it's way there.

I would Most definitely check with them and register a WRITTEN complaint! If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/steven_b77d19396bfe2249

I didn't READ any fault in the machine?! It is "just" the Light remains on? Typically, when the dryer ends it's cycle as a safety feature the light will remain in the ON position for a brief period of time. The reason you get no working functions is because the safety feature is disallowing any unauthorized entry in the drum (Kids). The feature usually can be shut off by reading the owners manual. It can not be reset by unplugging the machine! That is the default setting If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/steven_b77d19396bfe2249

The drum rollers need lubricating. Use a heat proof grease.

Check the temperature setting and the fins inside the drum.

Probably just needs a new heating element , not a hard fix.

Check the thermistor located on the blower housing. The thermistor should have a resistance reading. At room temperature it should read around 10,000 Ohms. You can test this with a multi-meter. Here is the part to order if you should find it bad.The part comes with a 365 day, any part, any reason return policy.

If the motor runs and the drum doesn't turn then most likely the belt is broken.
