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 rattling, squeaking or vibrating. Electrolux says to check pockets for coins and fasten buckles, tighten a loose pedestal, and on new installs confirm shipping bolts are removed and the dryer is level. Source: Electrolux - Laundry Dryer Noises
