How GE Dryers Are Built
Sensor dry models must sit level so tumbling clothes contact the moisture sensors; an unlevel dryer can end cycles with clothes still damp. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Taking Too Long To Dry Clothes or Not Drying at All
Common GE Dryer Problems
- Dryer hot to the touch or sweating. GE says this usually means heat and humidity cannot escape, so clean the exhaust duct, clear the wall cap and confirm the elbow count suits the vent length. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Hot to the Touch or Sweats
- Check Vent alert. GE says to unplug the dryer, disconnect and vacuum the duct, and make sure the outside hood damper moves freely. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Check Vent Sensor Alert
