What a Amana Dryer Technician Deals With
Automatic cycles rely on the load contacting the sensor strips in the drum, so an unlevel dryer or very small load can end the cycle early. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
What Amana Says to Check First
- Cycle ends too soon. Amana says the load may not be touching the sensor strips, so level the dryer and use Timed Dry or a different dryness level for very small loads. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
- Dryer not tumbling. Amana says to confirm the dryer has power, that Start was held for a few seconds with dry hands, and that the power cord is installed correctly. Source: Amana Product Help - Not Tumbling or Spinning - Dryer
Amana Dryer Problems Worth a Service Call
