E2 in a few lines
On screen: E2
Problem listed: the dryer’s parts are not communicating
Dryers: TD85.11XX and TD86, current series
Printed action: a technician visit
What the manual wants you to try
A restart comes first: cut the power to the dryer, then bring it back up. For the full wording of the fault, INFO does the job on a TD85.11XX, while a TD86 needs OK held down. Beside E2 the manual lists a technician visit as the remedy.
Same family of messages
E10 is an EADBS communication error and E11 is a motor communication error. A thermistor problem shows as E1 instead.

Stuck on E2 in San Francisco? Call (415) 993-3547 and read out the code together with the dryer model. It also helps to say how the restart went. Details of our dryer visits sit on the Asko dryer repair page.
Model compatibility: Asko reuses codes across series and model years, so E2 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
E2 is a communication error on TD85.11XX and TD86 dryers.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, water lines, sealed cooling systems or anything behind a panel. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
