If your Maytag dryer isn't running, make sure the door is completely shut. Also, verify that the electrical cord is properly plugged into the outlet. Check the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the door was opened during the cycle, push the control dial in again.
Why is my Maytag Dryer not heating up?
If your Maytag dryer isn't heating, first check the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. Ensure you've selected a heat setting instead of 'air fluff'. For gas dryers, confirm that the gas supply is turned on. Additionally, clean both the lint filter and the exhaust duct. Lastly, the dryer timer may have moved into the cool-down portion of the cycle.
How to fix a Maytag MDE2706AYW Dryer that doesn’t dry properly?
If your Maytag dryer isn't drying properly, check the exhaust hood outside your house to ensure it opens and closes freely. Inspect the exhaust system for lint buildup and consider cleaning the ducting annually. Use a rigid 4” metal exhaust duct. Avoid overloading the dryer, ensuring 1 wash load equals 1 dryer load. Sort heavy items from lightweight items and reposition large, bulky items like blankets or comforters for even drying. Check that your washer is draining properly to extract water from the load. If the clothes load is too small, add a few towels.
Why is my Maytag Dryer so noisy?
If your Maytag dryer is making noise, check the load for objects such as coins or nails and remove them promptly. It's normal to hear the gas valve or heating element cycle on and off. Ensure the dryer is level and installed on a solid floor. A clicking noise may indicate the timer advancing, and a humming sound is normal due to air moving through the drum and exhaust system.
What to do if my Maytag Dryer dries unevenly?
If your Maytag dryer dries unevenly, it's normal for seams, pockets, and heavy areas to remain slightly damp. Try selecting the 'More Dry' setting. Avoid drying one heavy item with a load of lightweight items. For best results, sort heavy items separately from lightweight items.
Why does the control knob advance slowly on my Maytag MDE2706AYW?
If your Maytag dryer's control knob advances slowly, especially at the beginning of an Auto Dry or Sensor cycle, this is normal. The knob will advance faster as the load dries and less moisture remains.
Why does my Maytag MDE2706AYW have an odor?
If your Maytag dryer has an odor, household odors from painting, varnishing, or strong cleaners may be entering the dryer with the surrounding air. This is normal, as the dryer draws air from the room. Ventilate the room completely before using the dryer when such odors are present.
