on TrustpilotWhy Won’t Your Dryer Start or Power On?
Here are some primary reasons, but other hidden issues could be present.
Blown Thermal Fuse
If the dryer overheats, the thermal fuse can blow and cut off power to protect the system.
Tripped Circuit Breaker or Power Issue
A tripped breaker, blown fuse, or unplugged cord may seem simple—but they’re among the most common reasons for a dryer that won’t start.
Faulty Door Switch
If the dryer thinks the door is open (even when it’s not), it won’t start. This switch can wear out or get stuck.
Failed Start Switch or Timer
If the start button doesn’t respond, the switch or timer might be malfunctioning and preventing the cycle from beginning.
Broken Drive Motor
If the motor has failed or shorted out, your dryer won’t turn on or may shut down mid-cycle.
Control Board or Wiring Issues
In newer models, a failed control board or internal wiring issue can prevent the dryer from powering on altogether.
