Maytag Dryer - No Heat
Model: MED5630HW2
Location: Cape Coral, FL 33991
Repair Summary
Checked dryer for no heat. Upon arrival, customer stated the dryer vent had been cleaned approximately three weeks ago. Verified the dryer had proper power and was running but not heating. Disassembled the dryer and found a significant amount of lint buildup inside the cabinet. Vacuumed and cleaned the interior, then found the heating element was broken. Checked the thermostats and fuses and verified they tested properly. Replaced the heating element, reassembled the dryer, and tested operation. Dryer is now heating and operating properly; however, airflow testing indicated approximately 80% vent restriction. Advised the customer to contact the vent cleaning company to have the vent system rechecked. Other than the external vent restriction, unit checks normal at this time.
