Know Your Frigidaire Dryer
What Makes Frigidaire Dryer Repairs Different
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?
What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- 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 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?
Frigidaire Dryer Problems Worth a Service Call
- Dryer will not start when you press Start
- Cycles take two or three runs to finish
- Clothes still damp after a full cycle

Keeping a Frigidaire Dryer Running

- On gas models, leave space around the dryer and keep laundry or rugs from piling against the front or back so the burner gets enough air. Source: Frigidaire - My dryer is running, but does not seem to be heating. What should I do?
