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
- Gas dryer runs but does not heat. GE says to confirm a real drying cycle and temperature are selected, keep the front of the dryer unblocked, check the dedicated 120V outlet, and on new installs make sure the gas line is turned on. Source: GE Appliances - Gas Dryer - Runs But Does Not Heat
- 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
