Ge Dryer Repair (Model GTDP180GD0WW) – Hartville

Ge • Dryer • Hartville

In HARTVILLE, a no-heat GE dryer can stall your week. For your GTDP180GD0WW, the inspection found an open igniter and a dry‑rotted belt; coil packs were replaced as a precaution, and the vent appears heavily obstructed. Here’s a clear rundown and ways to keep it reliable.

  • Complaint: My dryer is not heating at all. I had another servicer out who inspected it. They were unable to get me clear details on what was going on or how they diagnosed it. They said that it needed coil packs and a thermal fuse. When I asked for more information, they took the dryer apart again and then said that it needed a wiring harness and that the part was no longer available but if it was that it would be over $600 for the repair. I paid their service call, but I would like a second opinion. Can you help me out?
