Check the 220 volt circuit breaker or cycle it. If on the other hand you have fuses instead of breaker panel, with 220 volt you should have two fuses to contend with and one or both may be blown.

SOURCE: blows cold air and produces little lint in the vent

To get a rear control LG dryer apart: Open door and remove two phillips head screws at the 5 and 7 o'clock positions. Use a putty knife to release the clips holding the top panel to the dryer front by pushing the clips in at the seam of the dryer top and front, a couple inches in from each side. Swing top back. Remove two phillips head screws at the top, allowing front panel to pull forward. Unplug drum light and door switch and drum sensor plugs, allowing front panel to be completely removed and set aside. Now, look at the burner area at the lower right. Behind the gas valve you will find a small (about dime sized) high limit thermostat on the left side of the burner cone. It has two wires attached and has a small pin in the center of it. (Only on gas models) Push the pin in.
Now, if that get's you ignition again, CORRECT VENTING ! Get rid of flexible vent material. (use only rigid aluminum vent pipe and elbows) Clean out vent pipes and outside vent hood. Outside vent hood should be the kind with a four inch flap for the opening, not a two inch flap. Tripping of the high limit thermo is almost always caused by inadequate air flow.

Check for a blown thermal fuse or a faulty heating element. Both components can be tested using a multimeter or ohmmeter. Check for continuity. A lack of continuity indicates a faulty component. The thermal fuse is about an inch long and is located just inside the rear of the dryer and is usually attached to or near the exhaust duct. Hope this helped and best wishes.

SOURCE: I have a DLE 7177WM LG electric dryer is sound

Your problem sounds like drum rollers have flat spots on them or in need of lubrication.
If you have a front loading machine, Unplug the dryer, remove the front of the dryer. This will expose the drum and belt, remove the drum and belt and this will expose the drum rollers.
Check your rollers for flat spots, if they have flat spots on them replace them.
If they don't then they probably only need lubrication. Lubricate the shaft of the rollers with a good grade of machine oil such as 3 in One oil. Reassemble the dryer, plug back in. This should solve you noise problem.
Good Luck,
I hope this helps

Dryer won't turn on - digital panel is on

Check the fuse. It is mounted on the right hand side of the control panel:

This fuse trips when that element gets too hot. Look for air restriction or a bad blower wheel.
Older dryer from monkeywards is like yours inside:

Dryer doesn't stop when door is opened and light does not work (new bulb)

see the next steps and proceed with common sense: God bless you
If the lid switch is defective, your washer can't spin and may not function at all. The switch is inside the washing machine main housing near the door frame. Often you have to raise or open the top or front of the washer to get to the switch. If it's defective, you need to replace it. To determine if the lid switch has failed, watch the part testing video at the bottom of this page. Some machines have a special lid-switch fuse near the lid switch, inside the control panel. If this fuse blows, the unit won't fill with water until you replace the fuse

Kenmore front load dryer won't heat and timer broken

The most likely cause is the timer is bad. It turns on and off things as it cyles through and the first step is to get the tub turning before it turns on the heat.

My dryer won't work! The light works and the lint

Hi

I believe that everything else is fine rather it is the thermal fuse that is located inside the rear panel to the exhaust duct that is bad and should be replaced. If you want you can test this fuse for continuity and if it is bad then it should be replaced, as it cannot be reset. If the fuse is fine then it can be due to the control board that is bad and should be replaced. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

I have a whirlpool elect. dryer it runs but it blows cold air what could be the reason why

Hello & Welcome to FixYa

When the dryer blows cold air then the issue is with the Thermal fuse which is located on the blower wheel housing inside the rear panel that is bad and needs replacement. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

LG dryer DLE 3733S control panel inop but light on in drum. 3 years old intermittent problem, is this electronics panel going bad? if so, do we replace PCB Main or PCB Assembly? Thanks!

Check the power to the display panel after you have it removed. If there is no power check the lines to the control, If the power is present with no action on the panel then you will have to replace the board. It may be as simple as cleaning the board off, since it has been a intermittent problem in the past. hopes this helps Tim
