What Makes Electrolux Dryer Repairs Different
Moisture sensor bars inside the drum can be coated by dryer-sheet residue so they stop sensing moisture, which lengthens or shortens auto cycles. Source: Electrolux - Dryer - Not Drying and Extended Drying Time

Electrolux Dryer Symptoms and First Checks
- Dryer takes too long to dry. Electrolux points first to a clean lint screen, the right heat setting, proper load size, clean moisture sensor bars, and a clear exhaust duct and hood. Source: Electrolux - Dryer - Not Drying and Extended Drying Time
- Dryer stops mid-cycle. Electrolux says an overloaded drum can overheat the motor, so let it cool about 30 minutes and dry a smaller load filling a third to half of the drum. Source: Electrolux - What should I do if my dryer stops operating?
