My Dryer has electrical issue; your thoughts??

I have a 6 year old Amana dryer. This problem just started where the dryer started blowing the fuse at the fuse box. Whenever I put in a wet load I would have to flip the breakers back and forth first and then it would start however, I could hear a hesitating-like noise at the fuse box. This happened a few times until the last time when I flipped the breakers and turned to dryer on there was a sizzling sound for a few seconds at the fuse box. The heavy load of towel did dry completely but the next time I went to use the dryer I flipped the breaker and the dryer won't start at all. I press the start button and I get nothing as if it wasn't even plugged into the outlet. Any thoughts if this is a problem with the electric in my home or a problem with the dryer?

Sounds like you have a bad breaker. Might even be a bad connection in the electrical box.
There should be no sizzling sound from the box so that is why I think it is the breaker. |
