How Frigidaire Dryers Are Built
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?
What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- 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 won't start. Frigidaire suggests holding the start button for about two seconds, turning the cycle knob slightly past start, making sure the door is fully closed and the plug is seated, then checking the breaker or fuse. Source: Frigidaire - What should I do if my dryer does not start?
When to Call for Frigidaire Dryer Repair
