Dryer Not Heating in Orange County, CA

Estimate only — the final price is confirmed after inspection. Main board and motor repairs are estimated separately.

About 75-80% of jobs are fixed the same day. If a part like a control board or motor has to be ordered, it usually takes 1-3 business days to arrive. On older models a part can occasionally need a special order from the manufacturer, which is very rare.

Before You Call

Check your breaker. Electric dryers run on two, and one can trip while the drum still spins. Drum turns, no heat, is the most common false alarm we drive out for.

What It Usually Is

Electric: thermal fuse, heating element, high-limit thermostat. Gas: igniter, flame sensor, gas valve coils.

What We Carry

Whirlpool/Maytag thermal fuse (3392519), Samsung element (DC47-00019A) with both fuses and the thermostat, universal igniters. Most no-heat calls finish on the first visit.

Worth Knowing

A blown fuse is a symptom, not a cause. If yours has blown twice, either the element is shorted to ground or the vent is packed. Putting in a third fuse buys you a week.

Repair or Replace

Under 10 years old, a machine is almost always worth repairing. Past that, we'll tell you straight whether the repair or a new machine is the better use of your money.

These are estimated prices, not a quote. The final price is confirmed after the technician inspects the machine.

The range covers the common repair on a freestanding unit. Control boards and drive motors are quoted separately, and board and motor parts vary by model. Stacked and closet-installed sets are quoted after inspection — pulling and restacking adds time to the job.
