Four Common Dryer Repair Issues | Zalmen Pollak

One of the most common problems is the device is running, but the drum isn't spinning. Generally there could be a few different reasons for this problem. The belt may be broken, which would keep the drum from turning.

It could become a motor issue.

The door switch may also be stuck in the wrong position. To properly detect and perform dryer repair on this problem, it is best to contact with a professional.

Burning one load of clothes is enough to keep you from needing to use the unit again. Like the drum, there is a number of reasons the machine overheated and scorch your clothing. The rollers and drum seals are a couple of issues that could cause the machine to overheat and burn your belongings.

Another reason could be the glides or thermostat. As with the drum problem, it is best to hire a trained professional to perform the repairs.

Sometimes the unit just won't start.

Your first move should to be to ensure that the plug is firmly in the wall outlet. You should also examine the circuit breakers or fuse box to make sure that the breakers are not tripped or perhaps the fuses were not blown. The device itself has a thermal fuse built-in.

Your owner's manual will have instructions how to locate and look into the fuse. If this is taken, simply replace it and your machine should work again.

Sometimes dryer repair is necessary because the machine isn't heating at all. This is almost as frustrating as the system burning your things. Your first step should be to ensure that the temperature settings were not accidentally changed. Most products have a "fluff" or another setting which blows air but produces no heat.

However, if your settings are where they are allowed to be, then the challenge may be around the electronic ignition.
