Toro, Pull the dryer away from the wall, and take the vent hose off the back at the wall. Keep the dryer away from the wall, about 2 feet, and get the wife's panty hose, and stick it on the end of the vent hose that you took off the wall. This is just so no lint, gets in the house. This is a way to check and see if the vent to the outside is clogged. Make sure the hose has plenty of room for air flow, and then run a cycle. If it works, clean the vent, if not replace the cycling thermostat. You have to take the back off, and in the middle of the dryer, about a foot off the ground, you will see the thermostat. It is the only thermostat with 4 wires going to it. If you need me you can reach me at my web site at ApplianceEducator.com |
