Problem Possible Causes What to Do
Improper sorting Separate heavy items from lightweight items
(generally, a well-sorted washer load is a
well-sorted dryer load).
Large loads of heavy items Large, heavy loads contain more moisture
(like beach towels) and take longer to dry. Separate large, heavy
items into smaller loads to speed drying time.
Controls improperly set
Match control settings to the load you
are drying.
Lint filter is full
Clean lint filter before every load.
Improper or obstructed Check installation instructions for proper
ducting ducting/venting.
Make sure ducting is clean, free of kinks
and unobstructed.
Check to see if outside wall damper
operates easily.
See the Venting the Dryer section.
Blown fuses or tripped
Replace fuses or reset circuit breakers. Since
circuit breakers most dryers use 2 fuses/breakers, make sure
both are operating.
Overloading/ Do not put more than one washer load in
combining loads the dryer at a time.
Underloading If you are drying only one or two items,
add a few items to ensure proper tumbling.
