Kenmore Dryer Repair – Canton, OH (11065132411)

A Canton homeowner called Louisville Appliance Repair about her Kenmore dryer that sounded like she was drying rocks. When we arrived at the Linwood Avenue Southwest address, we found the customer was right — and the fix was simpler than expected.

The Problem

The customer reported that her dryer sounded like she was drying rocks. The noise was significant enough that she knew something was definitely wrong with the machine.

Diagnosis

Customer was right. She was literally drying rocks. There was an earring stuck in the front seal on the dryer door. Every time it went around the gasket on the dryer door clipped against it and it made a pretty bad racket.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: No parts needed
• Work performed: Removed earring from front door seal
• Result: After removing it, the dryer is cycling and heating properly

Is It Worth Repairing?

This Kenmore dryer is absolutely worth keeping in service. When the “repair” is simply removing a foreign object that got stuck in the door seal, there’s no question about continuing to use the appliance. Kenmore dryers are generally reliable units that can provide years of service when properly maintained.

Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Dryers

• Always check pockets thoroughly before loading clothes — jewelry, coins, and small items can get trapped in door seals
• Clean the lint filter after every load to maintain proper airflow and prevent overheating
• Inspect the door seal periodically for wear or objects that might have worked their way into the gasket
