What it usually means when your LG dryer is making loud noise

If this started suddenly, it’s usually not user error. We verify the fault and recommend the most direct fix.

If your dryer spins but the clothes come out damp and cold, you likely have a failure in the heating circuit.

A dead dryer is often caused by a simple safety switch failure, not a broken motor.

If the dryer gets hot but clothes stay wet, the moist air isn't escaping. This is a fire hazard.

A burning smell usually means lint has accumulated near the heater, or the belt is melting due to friction.
