Common Issues
When a dryer stops heating, makes unusual noises, or leaves clothes damp, it's often due to normal mechanical or electrical wear. A lack of heat is commonly caused by a burned-out heating element that can no longer warm the air properly. Loud thumping or squealing noises typically point to a worn or slipping drive belt, rollers, or drum supports.
​
If clothes remain damp even when some heating is present, the issue may be a blown thermal fuse or a restricted vent that limits airflow and shortens the drying cycle to prevent overheating.

Dryer is making a squealing noise or sound
If your dryer is producing a squealing noise this sound typically signifies worn bearings or other mechanical concerns. Ignoring the issue may lead to more significant damage.
Dryer door will not latch
When your dryer door fails to latch, this problem could be an electrical door switch or latch, or alignment issue. Unit may not start also.
Dryer not spinning
This malfunction typically suggests an underlying mechanical or electrical issue that requires expert evaluation.
