Common dryer problems

Before calling for service, check these:

Is the dryer door firmly closed?

Are the controls set in an ON position?

Did you firmly push the Start Button?

Is lint screen clogged with lint?

Is the power cord plugged in?

Have you blown a fuse or tripped the circuit breaker?

Is exhaust duct or outside exhaust hood clogged with lint?

For gas dryers, are the valves open on the dryer and the supply line?

Is the dryer making noise? Is there a thumping sound from support rollers I’))) indicating dryer has not been used for awhile? Is the lint signal sounding?

If you still have problems, see “RequestingAssistance or Service” on page 19. 18
