Know Your Amana Dryer
How Amana Dryers Are Built
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
Amana calls for a rigid 4-inch metal exhaust vent kept as short as possible with no more than four 90-degree elbows, and says plastic or foil vent should be replaced. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
What Amana Says to Check First

- 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
