Dryer Won’t Turn On

Dryer Won’t Start?

Is Your Dryer Not Turning On?
If your dryer won’t start, the problem could be due to power issues, a faulty door switch, or a blown thermal fuse. Whether it’s as simple as a tripped circuit breaker or a worn-out start switch, this guide will help you troubleshoot and resolve the issue quickly, so you can get your laundry back on track.

Common Causes for a Dryer Not Turning On:

  1. Power Issues: Ensure the dryer is plugged in and check for a tripped circuit breaker. Inspect the power cord for any signs of damage.
  2. Door Not Properly Closed: The dryer won’t start if the door switch isn’t engaged. Make sure the door is fully closed and check for a defective switch.
  3. Blown Thermal Fuse: If your dryer overheats, the thermal fuse will blow, cutting off power. Replace the fuse if necessary to restore function.
  4. Faulty Start Switch: If pressing the start button does nothing, the start switch might be faulty. Testing and replacing it could resolve the issue.
  5. Control Board Malfunction: In rare cases, the control board may fail. If simpler fixes don’t work, this might require professional repair.

Let’s Get Your Dryer Working Today!
First, ensure the dryer is properly plugged in and that the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped. Check if the door is fully closed and if the door switch is functioning. If the door switch is fine, test the start switch. Also, inspect the thermal fuse; if it’s blown, it will need replacement. For more complex electrical issues or internal parts, it’s best to call a professional technician.
