Know Your Frigidaire Dryer
How Frigidaire Dryers Are Built
The outside exhaust hood should have a swing-out damper, no screen over the opening, and at least 12 inches of clearance above the ground. Source: Frigidaire - Dryer - Not Drying and Extended Drying Time
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 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?
- 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 shuts off a few minutes into the cycle
- Outside of the cabinet gets unusually hot
- Dryer will not start when you press Start
