Hi ladies! Yesterday the Sears repairman finally showed up to fix my dryer and the part was finally there too (long story). The dryer WORKS - and it was covered by warranty. Thank you God!
The problem was that the limiter switch (or something like that) got fried due to the dryer overheating. According to the repairman, this was caused by lint filling the vent pipe. My dryer is NOT vented to an outside wall. It is on an inside wall of the garage. The vent pipe goes up the wall, through the attic & to the roof. Apparently, after 18 years of clothes drying the vent pipe is filled with lint. I clean the hose that attaches the dryer to the wall pipe. I also reached up inside there as far as I could and pulled out gobs of lint. However, the repairman believes that the pipe is filled with lint all the way up! He said that if I reattach the dryer hose to it, the dryer will overheat again and Sears will not cover it. Any ideas on how I can clean a pipe that runs from the roof, through the attic and down the wall to the floor? That is quite a long way... I am going to send Chase up on the roof to see what he can find out. Suggestions would be appreciated.
