i just got back from friggin nj and am trying to wash our laundry. the drier was working fine but it sounded like it got all balled up inside so i opened the door to separate everything and when i closed the door and hit start again it didn't work. i know nothing about driers at all. i tried the circuit breaker and unplugging it and running it in various cycles but that's about all i can figure to do. should i just by a new drier? ours seems pretty old ... came with the house and the previous owners had 4 kids. should i just replace the washer too if i do the drier. it works fine but i guess a new one would be nice.

Although there are some things you could look for to try to get it going again, it sounds like you wouldn't mind a new laundry pair. I'd give myself a late Xmas present if I were you. Remember the more bells and whistles you get on the machines, the harder and more expensive they are to repair.

Pull the plug - open the front panel and blow it out - i bet some lint got caught up in the switch.

make sure the vent isnt plugged.. its the leading cause of dryer problems.. and use rigid venting not that plastic accordian stuff.. it sags and its against code in canada..
