Maytag neptune dryer mle2000ayw takes two cycles to dry

hi gar.... sounds like your dryer vent pipe or outdoor vent is partially clogged with debris. thoroughly clean it out and it will work great once again. Joe

Is it beeping?

make sure the vent system is clean. any restrictions can cause the safety switches to activate and turn off heaters. When it cools, the switch resets and starts heating. Unit will continue to cycle the heat off and on. Make sure all elements are working.
Start there.

Hi,
Sometimes this is because the burner will not stay on very long... this happens when the ignitor starts to go bad..

how do i set this dryer to dry my clothes??? what is the right setting?? should i use the time dry setting or the more dry/less dry setting?? Clothes never dry???????????????????????????????????????????????????????

dry turn very slow

Check the exhaust vent out back of dryer to see if exhaust pipe going outside is crimped or blocked. Let me know if air flow is better if pipe is pulled off back of dryer. Thanks, Sea Breeze

this is joyce
It is as you guessed your sensor. it is usually located in door but some models are in back of machine on inside, go online download document papers go to maytag.com put in model# and then download your model # and it will show you where your sensor is located, it should be simple to replace. I had the same problem with my dryer.
I am glad you said you checked the dryer lines because if these get clogged up they will cause the dryer not to dry the clothes correctley. very smart....if you need me to help let me know.

thanks,

joyce

I had a similar problem, My washer spun but the clothes were still soaked with water. We replaced the inertia switch. That solved it.
