Common Dryer Problems We Fix
Our technicians are trained to identify and resolve a wide range of dryer issues. Here are some of the most common problems we address:
- Not heating up
If your dryer runs but doesn’t produce heat, the issue could be a faulty heating element, thermal fuse, or thermostat.
- Taking too long to dry clothes
Poor airflow or a malfunctioning moisture sensor may be causing the dryer to run inefficiently.
- Making strange noises (squealing, banging, rattling)
These sounds often point to worn-out belts, rollers, or bearings inside the drum.
- Not tumbling
If the drum won’t spin, a broken drive belt or motor issue could be to blame.
- Shutting off too soon
A faulty sensor or control board can cause your dryer to end its cycle before your clothes are dry.
- Burning clothes
Overheating may be the result of restricted airflow, a defective thermostat, or a shorted heating element.
- Displaying error codes
Digital dryers often show codes to indicate internal malfunctions. We can quickly interpret and resolve them.
- Not starting at all
This could be due to a blown fuse, faulty door switch, or control board failure.
- Venting issues
A clogged or damaged dryer vent can reduce efficiency and pose a fire hazard. We inspect and resolve venting problems as part of our service.
If you’re experiencing one or more of these issues, don’t wait. Dryer problems can worsen quickly and increase your energy bills in the process.
