How Frigidaire Dryers Are Built
Frigidaire notes that a 208-volt supply instead of 240 volts can lengthen drying times. Source: Frigidaire - Dryer - Not Drying and Extended Drying Time
Electric models have a thermal limiter safety switch that cuts the motor when the dryer overheats, and it must be replaced by a service technician once tripped. Source: Frigidaire - What should I do if my dryer stops operating?
Common Frigidaire Dryer Problems
- Dryer stops running. Frigidaire says an overloaded dryer can overheat its motor, so let it cool about 30 minutes and cut the load to a third to half of the drum; a tripped thermal limiter on electric models needs a technician. Source: Frigidaire - What should I do if my dryer stops operating?
- Dryer making noise. Frigidaire says to fasten buckles and metal fasteners, check the drum for coins, then run an empty load; if the noise continues with the drum empty, contact service. Source: Frigidaire - Is it normal for my dryer to make sounds or noises?
Signs Your Frigidaire Dryer Needs a Technician
- Drum turns but the air stays cool
- Cycles take two or three runs to finish
- Clothes still damp after a full cycle
What a Dryer Repair Technician Checks
