A dryer would not be able to do its job if there is a power issue. It doesn’t have to be a power cut or complete disruption of electricity. Fluctuation in voltage can impair a dryer. Major household appliances such as a dryer need steady voltage. These will not operate effectively or efficiently if the voltage keeps fluctuation while the appliances are running. You can use a voltmeter to check for voltage fluctuation. You can use a tester to see if the power outlet is supply the necessary electricity. You can use a multimeter to check for continuity and hence connectivity issues in the dryer.
Overloading leads to drying problems. Every dryer has a capacity. Do not overload. It is also better if you avoid loading too little. If suboptimal or excess loading is not an issue, then you should check the sensors, the timer, the door switch, and the heating element. Failing sensors may lead to a hastened spin, and thus ineffective drying. A malfunctioning or inefficient heating element would fail to dry the clothes properly. A defective door switch will interrupt the smooth functioning of a dryer, and thus clothes may remain slightly wet. Erratic timers will adversely interfere with the drying cycle.
