How Maytag Dryers Are Built
Electric Maytag dryers need a 240-volt supply on two 30-amp breakers, one for the motor and one for the heating element, so one tripped breaker can leave the dryer tumbling without heat. Source: Maytag Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating
Clicking from the gas valve during a cycle on a gas dryer is normal. Source: Maytag Product Help - Sounds or Noises in a Dryer
Maytag Dryer Symptoms and First Checks
- Dryer won't start. Hold Start for two to five seconds, make sure the door is latched and Controls Locked is off, and check the breakers or fuses. Source: Maytag Product Help - Dryer Not Starting or No Operation
- Dryer not heating. Run an empty heated timed cycle to confirm, rule out Air Only, then check both breakers and the 240-volt supply on electric models or the open gas valve on gas models. Source: Maytag Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating
