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
Amana Dryer Symptoms and First Checks
- Load too hot. Amana recommends letting the Cool Down portion finish and using a lower temperature or an automatic dry cycle. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
- Dryer not heating. Amana says to check both 30-amp breakers and the 240-volt supply on electric models, or that the gas shutoff valve is open on gas models, and make sure an air-only cycle isn't selected. Source: Amana Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating
Signs Your Amana Dryer Needs a Technician
- Squealing, thumping or grinding while it runs
- Drum will not turn even though you hear a hum
- Dryer shuts off a few minutes into the cycle

What Franklin Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Franklin come down to the same handful of parts: the vent and lint path, the heat source, the belt and rollers, and the door and start switches.
