What Makes Samsung Dryer Repairs Different
Sensor Dry cycles rely on two curved metal moisture-sensor bars inside the front of the drum near the lint filter housing, and fabric softener sheet residue on them can make cycles end with damp clothes. Source: Samsung US - Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer
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

- Cycle ends with clothes still damp. Clean the moisture sensors, pick a higher dry level and make sure the load is at least about four bath towels. Source: Samsung US - Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer
