Appliance Type: Dryer

My son forgot to put the lint screen back in and a sock is missing from the load he did, would it have gotten sucked into the dryer somewhere? I wasn’t sure where to even look.

I have a Whirlpool Duet gas dryer, GGW9200LQ0 that is roughly 12 years old. It runs and generates heat but in the last 10-11 months it has been taking too long dry a load of laundry (unlike its first 11 years of service)

I have previously disassembled it and vacuumed out excessive lint from the internals. This seems to help for some time but I need to do it again after 6 months.

The dryer does not turn off during a cycle but it doesn’t dry clothes completely. E.g. a 90 minute high heat cycle leaves 6-8 pairs of jeans warm and damp.

The dryer was moved to my basement about 10 months ago and a new rigid venting line installed (no screws). It’s about a 12′ run of venting upwards to a ground level exhaust vent and has about 3 elbows in the venting run. I just disassembled the venting and had to clean out lots of lint in the venting again.

I know how to test the thermostats, is there a way to test the other combustion components for problems? Shouldn’t the lint screen be catching more of the lint than this?

Also – how often should the thermostats, moisture sensor bars, coils and ignitors be changed? Would the drive belt, rollers and idler pulley be due for replacement at 12 years of average use?

My dryer powers up, but when I press the button to start a cycle, it just clicks and stops completely.

was working ok but when the last load was put in dryer failed to heat

I have a whirlpool duet model wed9400ve1 that won’t heat. Do you have a video for that specific model on how to test the element and thermostats and then replace failed part? I found some videos but none for this particular model and they seem to really differ, some the elements up front others in back etc.
Thank you

I need a parts list breakdown for the Maytag Maxima X Steam , cannot find any parts for this unit? Thanks in advance

I’ve worked on a few of these, and found the limiter open, so I replaced that, but still having issues. What am I missing? There must be something else.

I’m also looking at a dryer that doesn’t turn off at the end of the cycle. Am thinking it’s a main control issue?

My boyfriends said he checked the fuse, thermostat, and venting like another thread he saw on here. They were all fine.

Didn’t get any voltage across the heater element terminals on my WED9470WW1 Duet dryer. Pulled wires from high limit thermostat and thermal cutoff on the heater box. Got continuity on both. The heater element had continuity as well when tested with its wires removed from the terminals. Getting 240v from the outlet. Don’t know what to would be most likely culprit to check next. On the blower housing, the fuse has continuity, the only weird thing I found is that the thermistor has a resistance reading of 14k ohms. in 70 degree room temp. Heard these should be around 12k ohm. Could this cut the heat? Or is controller or controller relay higher probability of fault? Can the controllers relay be tested? BTW best video on the topic. Thank you !

what can I do to fix this?

My dryer will only run for about 30 seconds, and will not run at all if there’s more than one article of clothing in there.

So my dryer was making noises and it was the top stabilizer so I changed it I put it back together and now everytime I start it it will shut down exactly 1.5 minutes everytime I can start it right after again and it dose it again right on 1.5 I can even time it haha so my qustion is what its my problem oh and I can run it on fluff moad for as long as it can go and it wont shut off thanks for your time

I have a Amana gas dryer and the dryer won’t turn on. Every time I push the start button, it will trip my house circuit fuse. I tried plugging in a different outlet and it will trip that before I even push the stat button. I unplug the wire on the machine that spins the drum and it will also trip the fuse, (I mean with some wires unplugged and pushing the start button it will still trip the fuse). Do you have any ideas where the issue is?

I think I narrowed this down to a bearing issue but cannot find the part information. Anybody help?
