LSE7806ACE lint build up

Air duct inside dryer is clogged with lint. Dryer has to be disassembled

talk with a service agent , but by design the only way lint can get out of the unit is from a badly fitted lint filter
the air is blown into the dryer tub and exits through the filter to the vents
there may be a recall on the units so calling and talking will get an exact answer

Hi barados...
Your problem is caused by a build up of lint or other problems...not a dryer problem
***************************************************************************

Check and clean if necessary your vent hose.
If you vent hose "seems" to be clean then,try running the dryer with the vent hose off and see if the dryer is not running hot anymore.
Make sure your lint screen is in place and has no tears or holes in it and is still firmly attached to the frame.
If you are running too hot you are not moving enough air thru the system.
It could be that the fan blade is plugged up.
The problem could be a large lint ball build up in the center of the fan or a sock,thin pants,a pen,etc. that has gotten into the fan by falling down the hole where the lint screen is normally inserted.
You have to find the air restriction to solve the problem.
It also can be a loose or worn out blower wheel/fan.
Please take time to rate me.

inspect the door switch to make sure it is seated properly, as it sounds as though it is no longer locked in place and the vibrations of the dryer tumbling is causing it to break contact thus shutting off the dryer. Hope this helped Tim

A dryer that gets hot after 10 minutes is being shut off by the high limit thermostat. This is always due to poor airflow. You should break out the crevice tool and de-lint everything you can access. Also pull out the lint filter and wash it with white vinegar and water then soap and water. Fabric softener sheets material builds up on lint filters. It looks clean but air will not pass through the lint filter.

Additionally inspect the vent ducting inside and outside the of dryer for lint build up. Make sure you go outside the home and check the vent flapper at the through the wall connction for lint build up also. This is often where lint build up problems start and then migrate inward blocking air flow.
A looped coat hanger (Folded in half after you straighten it out) works great for reaching into the rear of the dryer from the vent connection to assist in lint removal.

If all of the above is good you will have to check the blower wheel mounted on the motor drive shaft for signs of a broken hub or... fan blades. A broken fan will cause poor air flow.

The dryer should provide enough air flow to push a relaxed hand / wrist away from the connection point on the back of the dryer. If you do not have this kind of air flow at the back of the dryer connection you need to find out the cause. I.e. lint build up or a fan problem.

Hi and welcome to FixYa. I am Kelly.

This can be caused by several things.

1. There is not enough airflow through the dryer.

a. First check the outside thru the wall vent flapper for any signs of lint build up. (clean as necessary)
b. Pull the lint filter and then use a flashlight to check for lint build up on either side of the lint filter.
(Use a folded metal coat hanger and a vacuum crevice tool to remove any excess lint.)
c. Wash the lint filter screen with white vinegar and water. This removes any fabric sofener sheet (bounce) particulate build up on the screen. It may look clean but it can still be blocked.
d. Try running the dryer as a test with the rear vent connection disconnected. If it perfroms normally the ducting from the dryer to the wall is restricted probably from lint build-up
e. As you do step d. above place your hand relaxed in the airflow... it should push your hand slightly away from the vent duct connection hole. If it does not do this there is a problem still with internal airflow through the dryer.
1) Inspect the rear vent connection tubing as far as you can see for obstructions or restrictions
2) If after all of the above and you still do not have good air flow then the blower wheel / fan may have a broken hub and is not turning fast enough or it is missing fan blades.
f. GOOD AIRFLOW and still burner goes out
1) Possible flame sensor failure
2) Possible gas vavle solenoid problem. (weak coil)

That is pretty much it for the basics... If you give all of the above a try and you still have problems just repsond here and someone will get back to you. I also will get notified of any response.

This is a symptom of a severely clogged up vent or dryer passages.
Remove the vent duct hose from the back of the dryer and see if the problem persists. If it workes normally clean out the ducting and the through the wall flapper vent.
If the problem persists then remove the lint filter and inspect the air passages inside the dryer. Also check the exit hole where the vent duct connects for lint buildup. Use a crevice tool / vacuum to clear all dryer passages. If necessary use a folded coat metal hanger to assist in removing lint build up.

Wash the lint filter with whie wine vinegar and then soap and water to remove the dryer sheet particulate matter that builds up on the lint filter.

If the burner lights but goes out after 30 seconds then the flame sensor on the top of the burner assy ducting is bad.

Check your lint screen for softener build up, you can do this by, running it under a water spout, if it holds water on it scrub it with dish soap and water. Check you exhaust tubbing for lint build up, if so renove and clean or replace. last thing to check is the exhaust discharge on the rear, inside of your dryer it is the area where you can get lint build up also. remove the back of the dryer then just look for where the exhaust tubbing connects, remove the screws that hold on the cover. all of these problems will reduce air flow. I do this every year to my dryer and it is working fine after17 yeard of service.

Completely disassemble your vent from the dryer to where it exits the building. Clean out all lint. Disconnect the dryer from the electrical service and check for lint build up inside the machine. This lint build up usually makes the motor shut down on it thermal overload. Check the motor also to see if the air vents on it are blocked with lint. If no lint is present, the motor or the start relay need to be replaced.

remove the lint screen by pulling on it ,around build up scrub w/ brush clean w/ portable vacuum .
