LG Dryer Repair – Salem, OH

A customer in Salem, OH called about their LG dryer having to run 2 or 3 times to dry clothes. Our testing revealed all components were working fine, pointing to a possible control board issue that would need monitoring.

The Problem

The customer reported having to run 2/3 times to dry clothes. This inefficient drying pattern suggested either a mechanical component failure or an electronic control issue affecting the cycle timing.

Diagnosis

All components tested fine on the dryer during our comprehensive inspection. With mechanical parts functioning properly, the issue likely stemmed from the control board not properly managing cycle timing or heat distribution.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: No parts used
• Work performed: Tested all dryer components
• Result: Advised customer to run on time dry setting and monitor performance

Is It Worth Repairing?

LG dryers are generally well-built appliances that can provide many years of reliable service when properly maintained. If the control board does need replacement, it’s typically a worthwhile repair on most LG models unless the unit is extremely old or has other significant issues.

Maintenance Tips for LG Dryers

• Clean the lint filter after every load to maintain proper airflow and drying efficiency
• Check and clean the exhaust vent annually to prevent moisture buildup and extended dry times
• Use appropriate heat settings for different fabric types to avoid overworking the control system
