We have a Maytag dryer that's a few years old. When we got the basement water-proofed the crew had to move the dryer out of the way, and ever since then it hasn't dried right. Sometimes it takes two or three times to dry the load, other times it does it in one. When it first happened I tried purging the gas line, and then I made sure the vent was cleared.
Reading on this forum, it sounds like maybe the coils are going? Like these?: http://www.repairclinic.com/referral.asp?R=1265&N=3479 If that sounds like its it, how many do I need to get? And if that's not else what can I check? Thanks in advance. -Josh |

They come in that kit, it comes with both, but I would check your exhaust vent in the back of your dryer first, sounds like they accidentally crushed/kinked it.

I actually change it to a more rigid flex hose when I was first trying to fix the issue, so it should be ok. Could a coil go bad by getting jarred? That's what gets me, it was fine before it got moved. |
