Dryer stops mid-cycle and will not resume unless power is cycled.

Safety first: Unplug the dryer and allow it to cool before inspection.

• Check ventilation: Ensure lint filter, exhaust duct, and condenser (if applicable) are clean to prevent overheating.
• Inspect power connections: Check the power cord, plug, and terminal block for loose or burned connections.
• Test thermostats: Verify that thermostats reset after cooling. Replace any that trip too easily or do not reset.
• Monitor motor temperature: If the motor is extremely hot to the touch after stopping, it may be overheating and shutting down. Test and replace the motor if necessary.
