Dryer not heating
On electric dryers this is often a failed heating element, thermal fuse or thermostat. On gas dryers, look at the igniter, flame sensor or gas valve coils.

On electric dryers this is often a failed heating element, thermal fuse or thermostat. On gas dryers, look at the igniter, flame sensor or gas valve coils.
A clogged vent is the number-one cause. A weak heating element or a faulty thermostat can also stretch drying times.
A broken drive belt, a blown thermal fuse, a bad door switch or a failed motor can keep the drum from turning.
Worn drum rollers, idler pulley or drum glides make squeaks and thumps that get worse over time.
Overheating from a blocked vent, a bad moisture sensor or a failing motor can make the dryer stop mid-cycle.
Lint built up near the heat source is a fire risk. Stop using the dryer and have it checked.
Some problems have a simple fix. Try these first — if the problem is still there, it's time for a repair visit.

On an electric dryer, the usual causes are a burned-out heating element, a blown thermal fuse or a tripped breaker. On a gas dryer, it's often the igniter, flame sensor or gas valve coils. A technician can test each part.
Most of the time the vent is clogged with lint, which also creates a fire risk. If the vent is clear, the heating element, thermostat or moisture sensor may be failing.
Dryers usually last 10 to 13 years, and most repairs like belts, rollers, fuses and heating elements cost far less than a new unit.
