What a GE Dryer Technician Deals With

- 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

Hawaii has no appliance repair license classification; the Contractors License Board's specialty classifications cover related trades such as plumbing (including fuel gas piping), refrigeration, and ventilating and air conditioning, and a contractor license applies to jobs that need a building, electrical or plumbing permit.

Installing and repairing fuel gas piping systems and their venting falls under the C-37 plumbing contractor classification, and plumbing contractors must use licensed plumbers for that work. Source: Description of Contractor License Classifications (Hawaii DCCA Contractors License Board)
