Source: Electrolux - My dryer is running, but does not seem to be heating. What should I do?
- Dryer will not start. Electrolux says to hold Start for about two seconds, make sure the door is fully closed and the cord is firmly plugged in without an extension cord, and check the fuse or breaker. Source: Electrolux - What should I do if my dryer does not start?

Dryer Notes for Spirit Lake, IA
Most dryer calls in Spirit Lake 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.
Iowa does not issue a general appliance repair technician license; the Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board licenses plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration and hydronic work, and state law carves out a special restricted license only for utility employees who repair appliances.

In Iowa, you can check a license with the Iowa DIAL Find a Record or License (Plumbing & Mechanical Systems Board public search) or report a problem to the Iowa Attorney General Consumer Protection Division.
