Common Dryer Problems We Repair
Changes in heat, drum movement, or cycle length can have several causes. Tell us what happens during a cycle so we can investigate the fault and discuss suitable repair options.
Dryer Not Starting
A door-switch fault, power-supply problem, or control issue may prevent a cycle from starting. Tell us whether the display lights up and what happens when you press Start.
Request helpDryer Not Spinning
If the drum stays still, the drive belt, motor, or related controls may need assessment. We inspect the machine rather than assuming the belt is the only possible cause.
Request helpDryer Taking Too Long to Dry
Long cycles may relate to airflow, heat output, sensing, or the size and condition of the load. We check the appliance’s performance and explain what the findings mean.
Request helpDryer Making Loud Noises
Squealing, scraping, or thumping can come from worn drum supports, a pulley, or an object inside the machine. Note when the noise occurs and arrange an assessment.
Request helpDryer Shutting Off Mid-Cycle
An interrupted cycle can involve temperature protection, a motor fault, or a control problem. Share the timing and any displayed message so we can investigate the pattern.
Request helpDryer Overheating
Unusual heat can indicate restricted airflow or a temperature-control fault. Stop using the dryer and have it assessed before running another load.
Request helpDryer Not Tumbling
A dryer may power on while the drum fails to turn or move the load. We assess the drive system, drum supports, and related components to identify what is preventing movement.
Request helpDryer Displaying Error Codes
An error code identifies a system reporting a problem, rather than proving a particular part has failed. Share the exact code and model so it can be interpreted correctly.
Request helpDryer Leaving Clothes Damp
Uneven drying may involve sensing, cycle settings, airflow, or heat performance. Tell us whether every load is affected and which program you normally use.

Restricted airflow, unusual overheating, and mechanical faults can affect safe operation. Follow your dryer’s care instructions and arrange a professional assessment for recurring problems.
Keep the lint filter clear
Clean the lint filter regularly, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
Pause use when something changes
Stop using a dryer that overheats or smells like burning. Arrange an assessment for unusual noises or recurring faults.

Dryer Repair FAQs
Have another question? Call our team to discuss your appliance.
Service Call & Diagnostic PolicyWhy is my dryer running but not heating?
A heating element, temperature control, protective device, or airflow problem may be involved. The symptom alone does not identify the failed component; an inspection helps determine the cause.
Why is my dryer taking too long to dry clothes?
Restricted airflow, reduced heat, moisture sensing, and load conditions can all affect drying time. Tell us about the cycle, load size, and any recent change in performance.
Why is my dryer making a loud noise?
Noise can come from drum supports, the drive system, or an object inside the machine. Stop using it if the sound is unusual or persistent and arrange an assessment.
Why does my dryer stop during a cycle?
Temperature protection, a motor issue, a door-switch fault, or a control problem may interrupt operation. Note when it stops and whether an error message appears.
Is it worth repairing an older dryer?
That depends on the machine’s condition, the fault, parts availability, and the proposed repair cost. We explain the findings so you can weigh a repair against replacement.
How much does dryer repair cost?
An estimate depends on diagnosis, the model, any required parts, access, and the scope of work. We discuss the estimate before you approve repairs. See our Service Call & Diagnostic Policy for service-call terms.
Do you repair electric and gas dryers?
This page covers residential electric dryer service. Gas dryer service is not advertised here. Please contact us to confirm model support before requesting a visit; do not assume gas-system work is included.
