Takes Too Long
Admiral · AGD4475TQ1 7.0 cu ft Gas Dryer with Moisture Sensor and Wrinkle Guard
Clothes require 2-3 cycles or extended time to dry fully. The most common cause is restricted airflow from a clogged dryer vent hose, wall duct, or exterior vent flap. Disconnect the vent from the back of the dryer and run a drying cycle — if drying time improves, the vent system needs cleaning. Check that the lint filter is clean and the lint filter housing is not clogged below the screen. On gas dryers, weak gas valve coils can cause the burner to short-cycle (light and go out repeatedly), providing insufficient total heat. Also check the exterior vent flap for obstructions.
