Having a faulty dryer can be a serious inconvenience and even a fashion hazard if it damages your clothes. That’s why it’s crucial to seek immediate repair and servicing from a trusted appliance repair service in Surrey, instead of trying to disassemble the machine yourself, which can be dangerous. Here are some common problems that can occur with dryers:

•  The dryer won’t turn on due to power supply issues, a compromised terminal block, a faulty thermostat, a defective start switch, a tripped thermal fuse, a non-interlocking door switch, a faulty drive motor, a broken drive belt, a malfunctioning main control board, or a faulty timer.

• The dryer is making noise, which could be caused by plastic glides, a blower wheel clogged with lint and debris, worn-out drum support rollers, a thumping main belt, worn-out drum roller axles or bearings, a damaged or worn idler assembly, or worn-out drive motor bearings.

• The dryer’s drum won’t tumble due to a broken or worn-out belt, worn-out drum support rollers, or a seized motor or supportive parts.

• Clothes are not drying properly because of a tripped thermal fuse, a burned or broken heating coil, a malfunctioning temperature switch, a defective ignitor (gas dryers), a faulty burner (gas dryers), or a power cord that’s not plugged directly into the outlet.

• The dryer takes too long to dry due to a clogged lint filter, impeded air flow, blockage in the venting hose, a burned heating element, or a faulty thermostat.

• The dryer is overheating due to not enough or restricted airflow, a defective heating element, a malfunctioning thermostat, or a broken thermistor with fluctuating resistance levels.

• The dryer cuts off after a short period due to a thermal overload, a blown or defective thermal fuse, a drive motor that doesn’t receive enough cooling and shuts off until it cools down, a door switch that can’t differentiate between closed and open door, a faulty door catch that can’t hold the door closed, or a defective timer.
