Know Your GE Dryer
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
- Dryer will not run or start. GE's first check is that the dryer plug is pushed fully into the wall outlet. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Will Not Run or Start
