Possible Causes
High ambient humidity, Clogged condenser or lint passages, Faulty moisture sensor (if equipped), Low dryer heater output
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the appliance before internal cleaning.
- Clean airflow path: Thoroughly clean lint filter, condenser, and internal ducts.
- Check room conditions: Ensure the unit is in a well-ventilated area; ventless combos rely on room air to condense moisture.
- Load size and fabric: Dry smaller loads and avoid very heavy fabrics together.
- Moisture sensor: If your Danby model has drum moisture sensors, clean the metal strips inside the drum with vinegar to remove film that can affect sensing.
