What a Samsung Dryer Technician Deals With
Electric models need a 240V outlet on a circuit with two halves, and one half can trip on its own so the dryer runs but gives no heat. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dryer loses power or won't turn on
What Samsung Says to Check First
- Dryer not heating. Run Time Dry briefly to confirm there is no heat, then check the 240V outlet or gas supply, cycle the breaker, and run the vent blockage test. Source: Samsung US - Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer
- Dryer won't turn on. With the breaker off, inspect the plug, cord and outlet for damage or burn marks, then reset the breaker and call an electrician if it keeps tripping. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dryer loses power or won't turn on
