A dryer is a machine that allows clothes to dry easily either by using heat or moisture. A dryer is most useful during rainy seasons when you hardly see the sun. Clothes that are not expose under the sun will take longer time to dry and will also have a funny smell.
Since dryer is a powerful machine, you need to take reasonable care of it. In times when the dryer is not working properly, you also need to know some basic trouble shooting steps. Having adequate knowledge can save time and money.
Remember that safety should be your outmost priority. Before inspecting the machine and performing any repair, make sure that the device is unplug from the power source. Your hands should also be dry and wear a foot wear to avoid electric shock. It is best to use eye protection especially if you are using any substance when repairing the machine. See to it that your clothes and hair does not touch any moving parts of the machine.
There may be different problems why the dryer is not working. If there is no power and dryer are not working at all, first thing to check is if the machine is receiving an electric supply. It is also possible that the thermal fuse already burned out. You need to replace it if this is the case. If the dryer is working but is taking too long to dry clothes, you need to check the dryer vent host for any clog. If the dryer is not cleaned regularly, lint will accumulate. Check if the vent is kinked because this might also cause a problem. This affects the performance of the dryer and may also cause fires in extreme cases. Try to check the thermostat, as well. If it is already broken, replace it immediately. If the dryer is not producing heat, then the gas valve coils may be defective. This will prevent opening of the valve and gas from igniting. Replacement of the valve will solve the issue. If the dryer is making a lot of noise, then the motor might be defective.
These are just the basic things that you need to check. If you are not an expert in repairing dryers, it will be helpful to look for a technician who may be able to assist you.
