Fisher paykel dryer dggx1 is not drying clothes cleaned the vent hose still won't dry clothes

Sounds like the heating element has burned out. If it's an older dryer then that's probably the case. If it's newer I would check the warranty.

you probly have a venting problem disconect the vent from the dryer and try it see if it works ok if so get someone to clean vent ducking out.

Call Fisher & Paykel Service, you have a controller fault.

Hi,

If your dryer is not drying like it once did or if you just have nottaken the time to give yourself a clean dryer in a long time then youneed to do that. At least once a year the dryer cleaning should takeplace. Lint build up in the dryer duct is one of the main causesfor your dryer to fail.

You may need to reset the breaker for the heating elements or clean and check the continuity contacts. Go to http://fisherpaykelparts.net/techhelp/fisher-paykel-top-load-dryers-us-models/ This forum will work you through your problem

make sure there is no lint build up inside the round housing where your lint trap goes. the holes in the housing sometimes plug up and you can't see it. one screw at the bottom and rotae slightly to remove. also make sure vent is clear

check your dryer venting from the machine to the outside vent,if they are plugged it will not dry properly,then make sure you have good air flow to vent on machine,if not dismantle and clean lint from inside machine,these are inexpensive fixes,then it could be a cycling switch or the humidity sensor bar that needs replace

Check your cvent going outside. also check to see if the vent is smashed. try using the time dry cycle and see how your clothes turn out. if they are still wet or damp. you have a heating problem. try those solutions.

Is the hose crunched down at all in the back
(vent hose)

If you have to run the dryer 2 to 3 times as long to dry the clothes then you just need to make sure the vent hose behind the dryer isn't kinked up and the vent is open all the way out side ,,, that will fix it for you.
