When it comes to appliance not working correctly it can be really frustrating because we think about how much money we will spend. While you are waiting on an expert to answer your question, I suggest you set service with a Sears technician. I have attached the link below. Have a nice day!

My first thought is that the location the dryer was moved to is the difference. The dryer worked previously but at the new place it doesn't dry as well.
Vent problems can be tricky to confirm but there are some things you can try.First I'd suggest pull the dryer out and remove the vent hose from the vent. Try a medium wet load with the vent hose off and see if it dries any better. If you always use the automatic cycle try a medium wet load with a Timed Dry cycle selected. If you still have the problem with the vent removed then it's most likely a dryer problem. Thanks for the question and let me know how the cycles without the vent hose work. You can reply with any additional details for further assistance.Join this conversation.
