GE Dryer Symptoms and First Checks

- 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

What Andover Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Andover come down to the same handful of parts: the vent and lint path, the heat source, the belt and rollers, and the door and start switches.

In Kansas, you can report a problem to the Kansas Attorney General Public Protection Division (Consumer Protection).
