General Electric Dryer Troubleshooting
Dyer issues are not as complicated as they might seem, we are here to walk you through the troubleshooting process for GE dryers. We outline where you need to start when you experience these common problems. A few simple checks, and some DIY fixes and your GE dryer will be as good as new.
Noisy GE Dryer – Determining what sound your GE dryer is making is the first step in solving the problem. Moving parts inside your dryer will wear out over time and when they are at the end of their lifespan, they may start making noise. Some common GE dryer noises are squeaking, thumping or banging, and grinding. If you hear squeaking you should be inspecting the idler pulley, and the drum bearings or rollers. If you hear grinding, you should be taking a look at the drum glides and seals. The most common parts to cause noise-related problems in your GE dryer are the drive belt and pulley, the drum rollers and bearing, and the blower wheel.
GE Dryer Will Not Start – Two different problems fall under this symptom and the first is power failure. If your GE dryer will not turn on at all there is a chance there is an electronics problem or power failure. Start by ruling out power failure. To do so you’ll want to inspect and test the power cord, outlet, breaker, and fuses that are linked to the dryer. If you are not dealing with a power failure but rather a dryer that turns on but will not start a cycle you should start by looking at the door switch. If it is faulty, broken, or obstructed the appliance will not run. It is a safety feature that your GE dryer will not operate if it thinks the door is open. If you cannot identify an issue with the door switch, move to inspecting and testing the thermal fuse, start switch, timer, and thermostats.
GE Dryer Not Heating Properly – It can be frustrating if your General Electric dryer is not getting hot enough, or if it is not getting hot at all. But there is no need to worry, it could be as simple as an airflow issue. Before you inspect any other parts, we suggest you rule out airflow problems by cleaning out and checking the exhaust vents and lint screen. If that does not resolve the heating issue you should then move to the heating element, thermal fuse, power cord, or one of the thermostats.
GE Dryer Will Not Tumble – If your GE dryer is overloaded it will not have the power it needs to rotate the drum, which could cause more serious problems if the drive motor is overworked. You should start by making sure that you are not overfilling the drum of your dryer. If you have ruled out that problem, you will then want to check a few of the parts in your GE dryer. Most often a broken, damaged, or stretched drive belt will be the cause of this problem. A good way to check without opening the appliance is spinning the drum with your hand, if there is no resistance at all and it rotates too freely that is a sign it is the drive belt. If you rule that it there is a chance you have a faulty motor, and you will want to test that part.
