FuseIf your electric dryer is not heating, the first thing to check are the fuses/breakers in your house fuse panel. There are two separate fuses for your dryer and if one of the two should fail, it is possible for your dryer to run but not produce any heat.

When you hear grinding or squealing noises, have it tended to quickly. There are many inexpensive parts on a dryer that can wear out. If they are not replaced in a timely fashion it can lead to extensive repairs.
(Added: 14-Jul-1999)
Clean the lint filter every time you use the dryer and inspect the vent pipe and vent cover operation yearly. Poor air flow uses more energy and can cause lint build-up in the internal ducting, leading to a fire hazard.

Never vent a gas dryer indoors! Carbon monoxide gas can be expelled with the exhaust air and can build-up inside your home to poisonous levels.

The RepairClinic offers a top notch on-line catalog of replacement parts and accessories for most brands of major home appliances. By entering a manufacturer's part number you can search their catalog to see actual part photographs along with their description, price and often links to related items.

If you don't know the part number you need, you can use their unique PartDective™ feature to browse the catalog by product brand and type.

The PartDetective™ steps you through the selection process by asking you a series of questions to narrow the range of items to display. The questions asked include appliance brand, product type, whether the part is electrical, metal or plastic, its color and approximate size.

Once finished, the PartDetective™ displays components for that brand and product type along with their photographs and descriptions. The results are sorted by the criteria you've entered so the most likely items appear first.

The RepairClinic also offers on-line repair help and tips for troubleshooting appliance problems plus FREE repair advice from the RepairGuru™ via email.
