Frigidaire Dryer Lines and Features
What Makes Frigidaire Dryer Repairs Different
Auto Dry cycles rely on moisture sensor bars in the drum, which fabric softener sheets can coat with residue. Source: Frigidaire - Dryer - Not Drying and Extended Drying Time
What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- Clothes take too long to dry. Frigidaire points to a dirty lint screen, a clogged exhaust duct, residue on the moisture sensor bars, poor ventilation in a closet install, or a 208-volt supply. Source: Frigidaire - Dryer - Not Drying and Extended Drying Time
- 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
- Squealing, thumping or grinding while it runs
- Burning or hot smell during a cycle
- Dryer will not start when you press Start
