If your LG dryer is no longer heating, start by inspecting the heating element for visible damage or burn marks. The thermal fuse could be blown, preventing the dryer from heating. Check it for continuity using a multimeter. The thermostat could also be faulty, so test it for proper operation. If these components are damaged, they need to be replaced.

If your dryer is taking longer than usual to dry clothes, the most likely culprit is restricted airflow. Clean the lint trap and filter thoroughly, and inspect the vent hose for clogs. Ensure the vent leading outside is clear of any obstructions, as blocked vents can cause long drying times. The blower wheel may also be clogged or damaged, so check it for proper function.

If your LG dryer is making unusual noises, such as grinding, squeaking, or banging, check the drum support rollers and bearings for wear. These parts can wear out over time, causing noisy operation. Also, check the belt for signs of damage or wear. If the belt is loose or broken, replace it. Make sure there are no foreign objects caught in the drum, as these can cause banging noises.

If your dryer won’t start, ensure the dryer is plugged in and the power supply is working. Check the circuit breaker to make sure it hasn’t been tripped. Inspect the door latch to ensure it’s functioning properly. If the door latch is defective, it may prevent the dryer from starting. Test the start switch and control board for continuity, and replace any faulty components.

Dryer overheating is typically caused by airflow restrictions. Clean the lint filter and vent system thoroughly to ensure proper airflow. Inspect the cycling thermostat for accuracy and the heating element for faults. If the thermostat is malfunctioning, it could cause the dryer to overheat. If the issue persists, replace the faulty parts to restore normal operation.
