Dryer Repair in Vancouver, BC, Canada - Vancouver Appliance Service Pros

Usually, you’ll want to clean the lint trap every other cycle, if not each time you run the drying machine. This helps prevent the buildup of lint and keeps your appliance functioning properly. Excessive lint inside the machine can cause motion components like pulleys, rollers, and bearings to fail due to wear and tear. And it can also cause your heater and thermal fuses to overheat, resulting in a hefty appliance repair bill. Regular maintenance services can help prevent these issues.

Dryers rely on a whole bunch of motion components to help them run and do so quietly. Worn bearings, drum support rollers, or belt tensioner pulleys (also known as jockey wheels) usually cause most noises you’ll hear and are a quick and easy dryer repair Vancouver project for our local technicians.

However, on older models of dryers – you might have plastic slides or felt that’s worn out and the drum is scratching against the metal door frame. Our licensed technicians can diagnose and fix these APPLIANCE PROBLEMS efficiently.

If your drying machine fails to dry clothes – it’s important to identify what’s actually going on. Let’s say your clothes are coming out damp but warm – this means there’s an airflow issue as the dryer is heating, but it can’t exhaust the hot and moist air out of the machine. Typically this is caused by a cloggeddrain or clogged lint duct running through the wall of your house and outside.

However, if your clothes are cold and there’s no heat inside the drum – it’s likely an issue with the machine itself. Typically it’s a heater or a fuse that’s blown. But in some cases, it could be a faulty thermostat, control panel, error code issue, or even a bad motor that doesn’t pass 120 volts to the heater circuit via the centrifugal switch. Issues with the door seal, door latch, or door switch can also prevent proper operation.

We strongly discourage using your dryer if it’s a broken appliance! This can cause further issues and result in a much larger drying machine repair bill than it would initially cost. Even if it’s a minor issue like some new noises you’ve never heard before or random error codes where the dryer still seems to run fine. We recommend that you call an appliance repair company near you to get the issue resolved before you can use the machine again.
