Whirlpool Dryer Repair – Bolivar, OH (CEM2745FQ0)

A customer in Bolivar called about their Whirlpool dryer with a stuck coin slide. They suspected a coin might be jammed in there, and they were right — we found the slide completely jammed and cleared the obstruction to get their dryer running again.

The Problem

The customer reported: “I did empty them so I don’t believe it’s that. they were full and now that slide is stuck. I’m thinking it might be a coin stuck in there, but I don’t know for sure.”

Diagnosis

We confirmed the coin slide was jammed solid. The customer’s instinct was correct — something was blocking the mechanism and preventing normal operation.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: No parts replaced
• Work performed: Coin slide was jammed, cleared jam, tested multiple times. Unit is operating and heating. Refastened vent pipe where it goes through wall.
• Result: Good to go.

Is It Worth Repairing?

This Whirlpool CEM2745FQ0 is a solid mid-range dryer, and a simple jam clearing like this makes perfect sense to repair. When no parts are needed and the unit is heating and operating properly afterward, it’s definitely worth the service call over replacing the entire appliance.

Maintenance Tips for Whirlpool Dryers

• Check pockets thoroughly before loading clothes — coins, buttons, and small items cause most coin slide jams
• Clean the lint filter after every load to maintain proper airflow and prevent overheating
• Inspect the exhaust vent connection annually to ensure it stays secure and sealed
