Why are my Maytag WGD4850HW clothes not drying properly?
- R
  Rachel GomezAug 17, 2025
  If your Maytag Dryer isn't drying clothes well or drying times are too long, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure that you clean the lint screen before each load, as a clogged lint screen restricts airflow. Also, check the exhaust vent and outside exhaust hood for any lint clogs, and make sure the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many turns. The dryer should also be level, and the exhaust vent should be 4" (102 mm) in diameter. Selecting the appropriate cycle for your garments is important, avoid using Air Fluff for regular loads. Finally, avoid overloading the dryer; separate large loads to allow clothes to tumble freely.

  If your Maytag Dryer won't start, make sure the door is completely closed. Press and hold the PUSH to START knob until you hear the dryer drum moving. Check your household fuses or circuit breakers; electric dryers use two, so replace both fuses or reset the breaker. Electric dryers need a 240-volt power supply, so consult an electrician to confirm. Finally, ensure you're using a time-delay fuse.

  If your Maytag Dryer isn't heating, start by checking your household fuses or circuit breaker and replace the fuses or reset the breaker. Electric dryers need a 240-volt power supply, so verify this with an electrician. For gas dryers, ensure the valve on the gas supply line is open.

What to do if Maytag WGD4850HW leaves clothes wrinkled?

  Jennifer SullivanAug 28, 2025
  To prevent wrinkles when using your Maytag Dryer, remove the load immediately after the cycle ends. For best results, use a cycle with Wrinkle Control to tumble the load without heat. Avoid tightly packing the dryer; smaller loads can tumble freely, reducing wrinkles.

  If your Maytag Dryer cycle is ending too early, the load may not be contacting the sensor strips; try leveling the dryer. For very small loads, use Timed Dry. You can also change the Dry Level setting on Sensor Dry/Automatic Dry cycles to adjust the drying time.

  If your laundry is too hot when removed from your Maytag Dryer, allow the Cool Down cycle to finish before removing it. Also, avoid using high-temperature cycles or settings; instead, select a lower temperature and use an automatic drying cycle.

  If you notice odors coming from your Maytag Dryer, and there has been recent painting, staining, or varnishing in the area, ventilate the area. Once the odors or fumes are gone, rewash and dry the clothing. If it is a new electric dryer, the odor will disappear after the first cycle.
