What a GE Dryer Technician Deals With
Some GE dryers have an airflow sensor that shows a Check Vent alert when exhaust airflow drops, which usually means the vent is blocked. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Check Vent Sensor Alert
What GE Says to Check First
- Electric dryer runs but does not heat. GE says to confirm the dryer has a dedicated 240V supply, reset the breaker fully off and on, and then inspect the power cord and terminal block for burned or loose connections. Source: GE Appliances - Electric Dryer - Runs But Does Not Heat
- Dryer takes too long to dry. GE points first to venting (metal duct, no kinks, clear wall cap) and a clean lint filter, then to load size, dryer level and washer spin speed. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Taking Too Long To Dry Clothes or Not Drying at All
