Dryer Repair
Service Overview
Right next to your washer would be your drier, which you are advised to have a technician look at in case of malfunction as everything can get hot and dangerous quickly. Common issues with driers include noisiness, which is to be expected as the appliance ages and its moving parts start to come apart, and failing to heat up. In the case of a noisy drier, the moving parts wear evenly, and a professional will determine the parts that all need replacing for efficiency. If your clothes drier will not heat up, have a professional replace its thermal fuse or heating coil for your safety.
Common Dryer Issues
Drier will not turn on
Many reasons may make your drier not start, including incorrect settings and faulty power supply. If you turn the button correctly and fix the settings yet the machine still won’t turn on, then check the door switch. Most driers will not turn on if the door is not closed, which is why you need to check it for lint and other debris. If these simple solutions do not work, you are probably dealing with a faulty thermostat, start switch, door switch, fuse, or terminal block, all of which are better repaired or replaced by a professional with the right safety gear and knowledge.
Drier is noisy
As your drier ages, you may start to hear squeaking and thumping, which are normal signs of wear and tear. Start by cleaning out your blower wheel to remove lint; if this simple step does not help, then consider having a professional take a look at the moving parts, which include the drum support, blower wheel, glides, and the belt that wraps around the drum and keeps it rotating. The expert will know what parts to replace together because they wear together and evenly to avoid multiple visits and high costs.
Drier will not heat
Sometimes, you will find your drier tumbling but not heating, which can be stressful. Start by checking the settings to ensure that time and fabric temperature is correct. If these are in order, the thermal fuse may have been tripped to stop the machine from overheating, and you will need to replace it. Another common cause of a drier not heating up is a faulty nickel-chrome alloy element, which you can inspect for burns and breakage and promptly replace if found to be damaged. If you do not find any obvious cause of the problem, the thermostat and temperature switch may be the problem, and you can have an expert inspect them to determine if they need replacing.
