What to do if my GE GFD65 doesn’t heat?

  Carolyn JohnsonAug 26, 2025
  If your GE dryer tumbles but doesn't heat, check the building’s fuse/circuit breaker box and replace both fuses or reset both breakers, because some electric dryers use 2 fuses/breakers. For gas models, make sure the gas shutoff at the dryer and the main shutoff are fully open. Also, check if the LP gas supply tank is empty or if there has been a utility interruption of natural gas; refill or replace the tank as needed. Ensure that a no heat temperature wasn't accidentally selected; if so, select another heat setting.

  If your GE dryer doesn’t start, first, press the Power button to activate the control panel if it's "asleep". Ensure the dryer is plugged completely into the outlet. Check the building’s fuse/circuit breaker box and replace the fuse or reset the breaker, noting that some electric dryers use two fuses/breakers. If the light on the Start/Pause pad is flashing, press Start/Pause to restart the countdown, as the dryer may have been accidentally paused when starting Delay Dry.

  If your GE Dryer isn't heating, first check the building’s fuse/circuit breaker box and replace both fuses or reset both breakers, as some dryers use two. For gas models, ensure the gas shutoff at the dryer and the main shutoff are fully open, and that the LP gas supply tank isn't empty or there hasn't been a utility interruption. Also, verify that a heat temperature is selected, rather than a no heat setting.

What to do if GE Dryer stops too early and clothes are still wet?
- J
  Jesus WoodAug 27, 2025
  If clothes are still wet and the GE Dryer shuts off too soon, ensure a dry cycle is reselected each time a new load is put in. For small loads of 3 items or less, use QUICK DRY or TIMED DRY. If only collars and waistbands are damp, use QUICK DRY or TIMED DRY, or select More Dry for future loads with collars and waistbands. Also, make sure the dryer is level.

  If clothes are still wet and the GE dryer shut off after a short time, ensure a dry cycle is re-selected each time a new load is put in. When drying 3 items or less, choose QUICK DRY or TIMED DRY. For loads with collars and waistbands, choose QUICK DRY or TIMED DRY to dry damp areas. Ensure the dryer is level by adjusting the leveling legs or moving it to an even floor space.

  If your GE Dryer doesn’t heat, start by checking the building’s fuse/circuit breaker box and replace both fuses or reset both breakers. Note that your dryer may tumble if only one fuse is blown or one breaker tripped. For gas models, ensure the gas shutoff at the dryer and the main shutoff are fully open. Also, check if the LP gas supply tank is empty or if there has been a utility interruption of natural gas; refill or replace the tank as needed. Finally, make sure you have selected a heat temperature setting other than 'No heat'.

Why is my GE Dryer running but not heating?
- M

  If your GE dryer is tumbling but not heating, consider these potential causes: * Blown fuse/tripped circuit breaker: Check the building’s fuse/circuit breaker box and replace both fuses or reset both breakers. Some electric dryers use 2 fuses/breakers, so ensure both are operating. * Gas service is off (gas models only): Make sure the gas shutoff at the dryer and the main shutoff are fully open. * LP gas supply tank is empty or there has been a utility interruption of natural gas (gas models only): Refill or replace the tank. The dryer should heat when utility service is restored. * No heat temperature selected: Select another heat setting.
