Possible Causes

Clogged lint filter or internal ducts, Faulty dryer heater element, Failed exhaust fan motor, Overloading drum during dry cycle

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before internal cleaning.

  • Clean lint filter: Remove and clean the lint filter before every dry cycle.
  • Check load size: Dry smaller loads; overloading reduces airflow and drying efficiency.
  • Inspect internal ducts: Access and clean the internal lint duct and blower housing to restore airflow.
  • Verify heater operation: During a dry cycle, check if the drum area becomes warm. If not, test and replace the heater element or thermostats as needed.
