The exhaust hose:
The dryer has to have good air
circulation in order to dry the clothes the way that
it supposed to. Look for a kinked or clogged exhaust
hose. |
|
The blower wheel:
The blower wheel is in charge of
circulating the air inside of the dryer. Broken
vanes or a clogged blower housing, could make the
dryer heat irregular.
|
The thermistor:
If the thermistor is not working
properly, the dryer could take too long to dry the
clothes or it could produce too much heat and damage
the clothes.
|
The operating thermostat:
If this thermostat is not working
properly, the dryer could take too long to dry the
clothes or it could produce too much heat and damage
the clothes.
|
The timer:
Worn out contacts inside of the timer
could be opening and closing the heating circuit
when the circuit should be close.
|
The moisture sensor:
If the moisture sensor is not working
properly, the dryer could be heating irregular.
|
The belt:
If the belt is stretched out, it may
not be turning the drum at the right speed, causing
the dryer to take longer to dry a load.
|
The drum baffles:
The drum baffles are use to tumble
the clothes around the drum. If your dryer is
missing a baffle or two, the clothes will not tumble
around the drum and it will take longer to dry the
clothes. |
