Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thank you for your inquiry! For the Insignia™ 7 Cu. Ft. Electric Dryer with Sensor Dry, it’s generally not a cause for concern if the cooling light stays on while the drying light blinks during the cycle. This behavior can be normal, especially when the dryer is transitioning between different phases of the drying process. The cooling light typically indicates that the dryer is in the cool-down stage, which helps prevent wrinkles and makes clothes easier to handle. Meanwhile, the blinking drying light may simply mean that the moisture sensor is still active and monitoring the load. However, if this pattern continues unusually long or your clothes are still damp at the end of the cycle, it could point to issues like a clogged lint filter, a blocked vent, or a problem with the moisture sensor or heating element. If you're unsure, it's a good idea to consult the user manual or run a diagnostic cycle if your model supports it.
