What a LG Dryer Technician Deals With
Sensor cycles stop when the load reaches the selected dryness level read by humidity sensor bars in the drum, so small, bulky or mixed loads can come out damp. Source: LG US - Why is my dryer not heating, not drying, or taking a long time drying
LG traces most no-heat and slow-dry complaints to restricted airflow from lint or blocked ducting rather than a failed part. Source: LG US - Why is my dryer not heating, not drying, or taking a long time drying
What LG Says to Check First
