Problem

On Time Dry, this Samsung dryer in San Carlos jumped from seven minutes to one minute, then displayed End. It shut off with cool air.

What we found

We found a failed heating element. Opening the dryer gave access to the heater housing and its wiring. The photograph shows the element inside its metal housing, with the front of the dryer removed.

The repair

We replaced the heating element with an OEM part. While the dryer was open, we cleaned lint and debris from its interior.

After the work

We checked the heating operation and tested the dryer after the repair. When calling about a dryer, describe both the heat and any changes on its display.
