Our dryer stops after we dry several loads consecutively and will restart only after it cools down. We have cleaned the filter after each load. What is the problem?

The over load relay is bad most likely. it warms up and kicks it off.

SOURCE: Bosch condensation dryer model WTL5400vc. lint filter alarm

there is a reservoir in the base of the dryer which holds some condensing water prior to the pump pumping it to the holding tank at the top this has a float swith to tell the pump to come on and drain water to top tank this is probably stuck in the on position so the machine thinks it is always full of water and its waiting for you to empty it,you need to remove side panel and remove flost switch to clean, remove condenser and put youre hand in back of unit if its still very wet in there thats the problem should be bone dry at end of cycle.

hope this helps

My LG dryer will turn on but will not start and the dry light blinks.

Unplug your dryer and turn off the circuit breaker for the dryer. Then press and hold the power and the start button for about 5 seconds,Next and then hold the pay and the pause button for approximately 5 seconds and plug the dryer back in and turn the circuit breaker back on too.The lint filter needs to be cleaned out. If the dryer still is not working it needs to be repaired.

Maytag dryer will not restart immediately after drying a load. has to cool down

try cleaning out your dryer vent. Remove your lint trap and use a flexible wire brush to clean deep inside, then remove your dryer vent hose and make sure all lint is clean from the dryer side of the vent and the vent hose all the way to the out side vent.
Sounds like it may be clogged with a build up of lint

My dryer keeps blowing the thermal fuse help

Check your lint filter, exhaust duct, and check if duct flapper is opening fully or not. Allow some time between loads and don't stuff too many clothes.

After one load, dryer stopped working. lint

With the exhaust clear, you need to be sure that air is actually moving. It could be a bound or bad exhaust blower.

My dryer has been difficult to start lately especially if stopped mid cycle. The lights are all on but it won't start up. Today I only used it 2 times and it was very difficult to start after pressing many...

You may be experiencing "Heat Retention" by stopping your dryer mid-cycle, which you should NOT ever have to do! If you have a minor vent restriction or if you open the dryer mid-cycle when the heat is on, this will cause a disruption in the airflow and rising temperatures can keep the dryer from restarting until it has been cooled long enough.
Check your vent all the way to the outside for restrictions/obstructions every 6 months. Clean your lint filter after each load and DO NOT stop the dryer mid-cycle!
Note: Stopping the dryer mid-cycle can also cause severe burns and even melt polyester fibers.

Dryer won't start

If you are getting s slight HUM when you press the start button,your motor is experiencing some problems. If you do not hear a hum, and after letting the dryer cool down for several hours, it suddenly works again, your motor has an internal short and is shutting itself down via the internal overload. If there is no hum of any kind, even after letting it cool off for a long time, then either there has been a failure of a part in the line such as the door interlock switch, the timer contact or there is a thermal overload in the back of the dryer, down by the blower, it is white in color and it has probably opened up.

If your dryer stops during its cycle, wait ten minutes and start dryer again. If dryer starts, then the motor was overheating.

Solution, Check for lint blockage around the motor and for possible overloading. If dryer repeatedly stops during its cycle, especially during consecutive loads, replace motor.

Good luck

Dryer keeps stopping - check filter light on

For Sgt 48 - You are not reading the original message very well - The original help question didn't say they saw check filter at the beginning or end of a dry cycle they indicated that the dryer STOPS MID DRY and says check filter - this is not a friendly reminder, it is indicating something is wrong and the filter needs to be completely cleaned out (and past the filter down in the interior of the dryer) and if that does not work then you need to also check the dryer hose for kinks, lint build up, etc. Lastly, reset the dryer by unplugging it (or flipping the breaker) for a minute or so and hold down on the start/pause button for 8 seconds while it is unplugged (this will reset the error code for check filter, among other things).
