Know Your Maytag Dryer
What Makes Maytag Dryer Repairs Different
Air Only and Air/Fluff cycles never add heat, so a no-heat complaint should start with a five-minute heated timed test. Source: Maytag Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating
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
Common Maytag Dryer Problems
- Dryer takes too long to dry. Clean the lint screen, check that the vent is metal, short and not crushed, and make sure the outside hood flap opens freely. Source: Maytag Product Help - Dryer is not Drying or Experiencing Long Dry Times
