Let's guess it is a Maytag Dryer :>/
'Make model (what it is) in all questions please.
A PF (Power Failure) error code indicates that the drying cycle has been interrupted by a power failure. Touch and hold START to restart the dryer cycle or press POWER to clear the display.

PF is power failure error meaning electricity has been interrupted to the machine. An electrical interruption of any type can cause a PF error code. Try this: Press the Pause/Cancel/Stop button twice to clear the PF in the display.
Check all the wiring to the dryer and even the wires in the wall socket. Sounds like there is a loose wire since you keep getting the power failure (PF) code on the dryer.
From what you mention, my take on the issue is that a Fuse or board will either work or not work.My guess is a loose connection or damaged cord somewhere. Assuming you are not electrician , what I would suggest is just to check the cord from the wall outlet to dryer and look for any bends, or damage to the cable, WARNING do not touch it while still connected to outlet if there is any sign of damage. Also use a hair dryer as an example , and just plug it into the outlet to check if the electricity outlet itself, has not perhaps failed.Failing this, a loose earth connection, or wire to unit might have failed and best bet here is to have an appliance person check it over, good luck
PF - Power Failure - PF error code indicates a power failure during the dryer's cycle. Press and HOLD start to continue the cycle, or press off/pause to clear display.

PF means Power Failure!
Unplug both units for 10 minutes, then plug them back in and try operating them. You may need an electrician to investigate why you are losing power to both units
