    We just bought a brand new dryer/washer. I was doing laundry today, and I noticed there is no heat. I was hysterical that they sold me a dryer that didn't work. I "barked" at my boyfriend to call the "kid" who sold it to us and tell him to bring a unit that "actually works". So, um...then I googled "My dryer isn't heating", and you were the FIRST video that popped up that was under 5 minutes. I watched, and ya know, I didn't even THINK about the breaker. lol Flipped it, now my brand new dryer is hot. Oy! Do you ever feel like Chrissy Snow? Yeah, I'm there. LOL Thanks, Keith! YOU ARE AN ANGEL!!!!!!!!!

    Keith!! I thank you so much for your so simple yet extremely effective advice, to just give the breaker a reset, which fixed my no heat whatsoever issue after having watched dozens and dozens of other videos. I can’t believe I didn’t think of this sooner. You’re the best!

    Thank you!!!! My commercial dryer had no heat whatsoever. Still worked otherwise. I reset the breaker for 30 seconds and voila! Hot air. I think the California heat (100+ degrees) in the garage + the dryer running created too much heat and triggered a safety feature
    Thank you again! You saved me a good chunk of money

  • @kevinneal2575

    These are good starting points. I’ve replaced my heater because it was out. It was 8 years old before it went out, and the element had deteriorated. Unfortunately the After market heaters don’t last long. Went out again after 10 months. I have no issues with the vents, it’s just that those heaters are cheaply made. Looking into an OEM part this time. But not sure if that will last long either. I’ve read that didn’t last much longer.

  • @bekind2047
    @bekind2047 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    He is absolutely right. Flip the breaker first for at least 10 seconds.
    On another video it was said 99% its the heating element. My dryer is from 2018. I bought the pieces - exchanged them - same, no heat. In another video it was said either unplug the plug or flip the breaker. So the plug was nearer to me. Nothing changed. Before going to buy a new dryer I gave the flip of the breaker a chance. Now it's working again. So obviously older houses have older wires and I assume the dryer senses the thinner wires in older houses and shuts off the heat - just in case. If its happening again I will exchange the wire in the house according to todays code.

    2nd step did it for me. Pulled vent off, found heat coming out the back, cleaned the flex hose and stuck a hanger down the permanent vent. Found sock from previous tenants, 2 years prior. It always took us 2 dries to dry completely. Maybe it will dry on the first run now. Thank you.
