need repair on Maytag electric dryer not running.
Charlotte S
I have two Kenmore Refrigerators that need help. The one in the garage is not cooling, or freezing...but is is blowing out air. The one in the house, the water dispenser slowly has stopped. I replaced the filter and the water is dispensing again, but VERY slowly. Any suggestions? Is there a Fee for just coming out to look at both refrigerators?

Washer And Dryer Repair
Common dryer repair problems involve dryers that won't work at all, dryers that won't tumble, slow drying, overheating or a lack of heat in the dryer. Here are a few basic dryer repairs you can perform while you wait for a professional dryer repair service to arrive at your home. If your clothes dryer doesn't run at all, make sure that the appliance is plugged in properly. Check if the power outlet is functioning by using the voltage tester or by plugging in any other appliance. Many electric dryers require a 240 volt receptacle to work. If there is nothing with the power, check the power cord, and if necessary, replace it. If there is nothing wrong here too, open the dryer door, and check if the door switch clicks each time you release it. If there is no clicking noise, then you may have a broken door switch. Call a dryer repair professional to replace the switch.
If your dryer makes a lot of noise, but there is no tumbling movement, check the interior of the drum for any objects that have become loose. The noise could also occur because of any dryer parts that have become loose or defective components like a drum belt, motor bearings and support roller. In case of defective parts, it's best to rely on a professional dryer repair service. In case of a dryer that is too slow make sure that there is no obstruction in the vent duct that leads from the dryer to outside. The duct must be kept clean, and the dryer must never be placed too close to the valve. Slow heating can also occur because of a heating element that is partially burnt. Call a dryer repair service to replace the burnt element.
Basic washing machine repairs tend to be easier because of the simple working of the machine. If your washer doesn't agitate, look for a broken or loose belt. You can replace or tighten the belt yourself, or call a washer repair service to replace it for you. There could also be control problems that can be fixed by a repair man. If the washer doesn't drain, look for a broken tab on the lid. If the lid switch doesn't click when you press and release the switch, then it may be broken and may have to be replaced. Your water pump could be clogged with pieces of fabric. These are problems that should be handled by a professional washing machine repair service.
