Dryer Repair Services

When your dryer runs but doesn’t produce heat, clothes stay damp. This could happen due to:

• Blown thermal fuse: Designed to prevent overheating, a thermal fuse can blow if the dryer vent is clogged;
• Faulty heating element: Over time, the heating element may burn out;
• Defective thermostat or thermistor: Meant to regulate temperature, these might malfunction;
• Clogged vent or lint remover: Poor airflow can prevent heat from building up;
• Power supply issues: Electric dryers require 240 volts; if one breaker trips, the dryer may run without heating.

• Power supply problems: A tripped circuit breaker, blown fuse, or unplugged power cord could be the culprit;
• Faulty door switch: Dryers won’t start if the door switch isn’t working correctly or if the door isn’t closed properly;
• Worn start switch or button: If the start button doesn’t engage, the machine won’t run;
• Broken thermal fuse: An overheated appliance will not start as a safety precaution.

• Broken drive belt: The belt connecting the motor to the drum may snap or slip off;
• Faulty motor: A malfunctioning motor won’t spin the drum;
• Worn drum rollers or bearings: These components help the drum turn smoothly and may need replacement if worn.

• Clogged lint trap or vent: Blocked airflow causes excessive heat build-up inside the dryer;
• Malfunctioning thermostat: A thermostat stuck in the “on” position won’t regulate temperature properly;
• Faulty heating element: If it fails to shut off, the dryer can overheat.

• Worn rollers or gliders: These parts support the drum and can create noise when damaged.
• Loose or damaged belt: A worn or frayed belt can produce thumping or squealing sounds.
• Foreign objects: Coins, buttons, or other debris can get stuck in the drum or blower wheel.
• Unbalanced dryer: Uneven placement on the floor can lead to vibrations.

• Overheating: A tripped thermal fuse or thermostat will shut the dryer down to prevent overheating;
• Defective motor: Motors that overheat or fail will cause the dryer to stop;
• Timer or control board malfunction: If these electronic components fail, they might interrupt the cycle;
• Faulty door latch or switch: An open door detected by the door sensor can halt operation.

• Clogged lint rap or vent: Restricted airflow reduces drying efficiency;
• Heating element issue: Insufficient heat prolongs drying time;
• Overloading: Too many clothes in the drum prevent proper airflow;
• Moisture sensor malfunction: In some dryers, the sensor may misread moisture levels.

• Lint build-up: Lint near the heating element or vent can burn and produce a smell;
• Electrical issues: Worn wires or electrical components can overheat;
• Friction from mechanical parts: A stuck drum or motor issue can create excess heat and a burning odor.

• Blocked vent or airflow: Codes often indicate restricted airflow due to lint or debris;
• Heating issues: Codes can signal a malfunctioning heating element or thermostat;
• Sensor problems: Faulty moisture or temperature sensors often trigger error messages.
• Control board malfunction: Indicates a failure in the electronic control system.
