A customer in Malvern called after their recent move — their Kenmore dryer wasn’t working at all. After checking the unit, we found the electrical connection on the dryer cord had come loose during the relocation.
The Problem
The customer reported that their dryer doesn’t work after they moved. The unit had no power and wouldn’t respond when they tried to start a cycle.
Diagnosis
Upon inspection, we discovered the electrical connection on the dryer cord had become disconnected. This is a common issue during moves when appliances are unplugged and reconnected in new locations.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: No parts needed
- Work performed: Reconnected electrical connection on dryer cord
- Result: Dryer restored to full operation
Is It Worth Repairing?
Kenmore dryers are generally reliable appliances that can provide many years of service when properly maintained. For electrical connection issues like this, repair is always worthwhile since it’s a simple fix that restores full functionality.
Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Dryers
- Clean the lint filter after every load to maintain proper airflow and prevent overheating
- Check electrical connections annually, especially if the unit has been moved recently
- Inspect the exhaust vent outside your home quarterly to ensure it opens freely when the dryer runs
