Dryer wont dry my clothes

My dryer will not dry my clothes. I put the clothes in the dryer and go to check them 2 hours later and they are still soaking wet. I clean out the vent after every load. What else could be the problem?

Your heating element is not working. The element could be burnt out or the high temperature switch is bad.

LG Dryer takes too long to dry clothes

Sure the outside vent is not clogged up? If so it will overheat and turn it self off and do a poor job of drying the clothes.

Also check and make sure that all of the heating elements are working properly.

My LG front loading dryer doesn't dry well

Check the exhaust vent when running and be sure there is a good flow of air. You may have to clean the exhaust pipes all the way through. Dryers require a good flow of air for proper operation.

My LG dlg2532 takes forever to dry clothes. When the drying cycle ends, the clothes are still quite damp. It's a gas dryer and the dryer seems to be getting gas since it does eventually dry the clothes...

How long are the vents? do they go for miles in your house?(sarcasm) Does the dryer have good ventilation? Check the vents again and make sure it is clear.

Heating problem with stackable washer/dryer combo

check the duct work going out of the house if it is clogged the clothes wont dry. Birds love to build nest in a open dryer vent and if you have any bends lint will build up get these clean and it should get you drying again
let me know what you find

My ge wont dry clothes it takes 2 hours

Check the exhaust duct. It's best to have a short run and no obstructions. It's also possible that a heating element could have been damaged in the move.
