Hi ailewpb,

I understand you are having difficulty with your laundry center not drying. Do you have power at all to the dryer, or is it running but not heating, or not running long enough to complete the dry cycle? Additional information regarding what functions are or are not working would allow me to provide a more accurate description of what might be wrong.

However, if the dryer runs, but there is no heat and the house uses fuses. There are two house fuses that supply voltage to the dryer circuit in your fuse box. If one of the two fuses is blown, the dryer may turn but will not heat. Check and replace fuse in fuse box if necessary. If the house has circuit breakers, there may be two breakers with switches that supply voltage to the dryer and if one is tripped the dryer may turn but will not heat. The heater of a dryer requires 220 to 240 volts to operate. I hope this information proves helpful to you.
