How Amana Dryers Are Built
Electric Amana dryers run on a 240-volt supply with two 30-amp breakers, one for the motor and one for the heating element, so a single tripped breaker can stop heating. Source: Amana Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating
What Amana Says to Check First
- Clothes take too long to dry. Amana points to a dirty lint screen, overloading, a No Heat setting, or a vent that is clogged, crushed, kinked, too long or has too many turns. 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

What Brookfield Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Brookfield 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.
Wisconsin has no separate appliance repair license; plumbing licensing covers appliances connected to water supply systems, including water heaters, but exempts minor repairs to appliances and repair or replacement of gas or electrical control valves and devices.

In Wisconsin, you can check a license with the Wisconsin DSPS LicensE credential lookup or report a problem to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Bureau of Consumer Protection.
Questions to Ask a Brookfield Technician
