Electric Frigidaire dryers run on a 240-volt circuit fed by two household breakers or fuses, and one tripped breaker can leave the drum turning with no heat. Source: Frigidaire - My dryer is running, but does not seem to be heating. What should I do?
Frigidaire Dryer Symptoms and First Checks
- Dryer not heating. Frigidaire says to check first for a tripped breaker or blown fuse on the dryer circuit, then confirm the cycle isn't Air Fluff and, on gas models, that the gas valve is open and supply is on. Source: Frigidaire - My dryer is running, but does not seem to be heating. What should I do?
- 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?

Florida's construction licensing guidance says that paid work such as installing a dishwasher connected to drinking water or replacing a water heater requires a licensed contractor, and that a local business tax receipt or certificate of competency may also apply; it does not describe a separate state appliance repair license.

In Florida, you can check a license with the DBPR Verify a License (MyFloridaLicense.com) or report a problem to the Florida Attorney General, Office of Citizen Services / Consumer Protection.
