20 Most Recent Frigidaire Affinity 5.8 Cu. Ft. Gas Dryer - Page 2 Questions & Answers

Good Morning Daniela, I see that you are having trouble with your Frigidaire Affinity gas dryer to stop running. It sounds to me like there could be something going on with the actual control panel on your appliance. It could also be something to do with the door latching mechanism. I would suggest contacting your local authorized technician to be sure that is what is causing the issue. -Best Regards- WP

Hi emer, this is AP! I understand you are having trouble with your Frigidaire gas dryer. Without knowing the specific model number there are still some troubleshooting tips I can recommend. Make sure the dryer is plugged into the outlet, and plugged in correctly. Check to see if the house fuse is blown or circuit breaker tripped. If so, replace fuse or re-set circuit breaker. Make sure that the electrical circuit is not overloaded and correct. Additionally, the dryer must be on a circuit by itself. Overloaded circuits can damage the dryer and possibly cause damage to home. If needed have a licensed electrician check to make sure it is on a circuit by itself. If those tips do not resolve your concerns and the appliance is still in warranty, you may want to check with the manufacturer to determine any warranty coverage, or if there are any professionals in your area who will not only be able to ensure this is the appropriate fix, but may actually save you some cost if is something simpler to repair. I hope this information proves helpful to you. Best of luck,

The LOC indicates that the control panel settings are locked. Press the SELECT and OPTION button simultaneously to toggle this 'feature' on or off. Hope this helps.

Consider a temperature switch that cuts in(turns off) if the dryer gets too hot. Does Timer Mode run with the heat on. Your dryer vent may be plugged causing the dryer to overheat.

Most gas dryers the fuse kills power to the gas assembly. Start there. If it is the coils usually the ignitor will glow, then shut off followed by no ignition. When coils are going out they die slowly and sometimes will work when dead cold but quit after woring once or twice.

Check the belt, it may have broken and need to be replaced.

the switch or button that the door pushes up against might be bad you can check this by holding in the button and turn on the dryer if it work than the door is loose if not you need to replace the door switch

That means that the ignitor is most likely failing to start the process to ignite the gas. The ignitor is like a light bulb and can burn out. Here is a link to the information about that: http://www.managemylife.com/mmh/questions/289969-frigidaire-model-faqg7077ka-error-code-e4a-heat

Hello Tim, I understand the dryer comes on but will not heat. Let's try resetting the unit by either unplugging it or flipping the household breaker to the off position. Wait approximately two minutes, turn on the dryer and select a normal cycle. If these troubleshooting steps prove ineffective, you may wish to contact a professional as the unit may possibly have a defective cord, wiring, power supply, control board or door switch. In this case the service can accurately diagnose the dryer to determine the root cause to reduce the risk of unnecessary parts.

test this steps and fix it. God bless you1. No power to the dryer Make sure there's power getting to the dryer. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or a blown fuse. Check the wall socket for power with a voltmeter or by plugging something else in. Sometimes the power cord disconnects or burns at the dryer, if this is the case, the wiring and the terminal block must be repaired or replaced. 2. Door switch / Door switch actuator lever The dryer would not start with a broken door switch. Replace the door switch if found defective. Most dryers have a door switch actuator lever - when you close a dryer door, it presses against the lever, which actuates the door switch. If the lever is broken, the switch would not activate and the dryer would not start. Replace the lever, if broken. Note: Door switch actuator lever usually comes with the door switch assembly and it is recommended to get the whole assembly since there is almost no price difference between the door switch assembly and just the lever. Check your model for more details. Read more: http://www.appliancepartspros.com/repair-help/dryer-repair-help.html#electric#ixzz2Zk5oxDiH http://www.appliancepartspros.com

Hello Kenneth Joynt - Often when a dryer will not stop running, it is because the unit may have a potential wiring failure, faulty timer, or a communication error with the main control board. Try resetting the unit by either unplugging it or flipping the household breaker to the off position. Wait approximately two minutes, turn on the dryer and select a normal cycle. If issue persists, I would suggest contacting an experienced service technician to determine the precise cause.
