Hi
I am new to this forum and I need help trying to figure out why my dryer is slow to dry. I have cleaned and even ran a new vent hose still the same results. Also the autodry feature does not work. What can I check any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Scott

Insufficient drying is usually a blocked or obstructed air flow. If you have cleaned out the outside vent, the problem is probably in your lint chute or airflow intake/outakes.

Take off the back and take out the two screws that are on the inside of the lint filter door. Then take off the lint chute and clean it out along with the air intake/outflow vents. You will probably find a lot of lint, some coins and a a lot of other debris.

Put it back together, make sure you have a strong air flow out the back of the machine before the outside vent is hooked up and you should be all set.

This may also fix your auto drying problem.

If this does not work, post the results and we will try something else.

I had the same issue with another brand of dryer. I put a temp gage in the lent trap so I could open the dryer and see the high and low temp range. I had a 20+ degree difference on regular. After I put in a new High/Low temp sensor it is now less than 10+ diff. This made all the diff in the world. I also had a issue where auto dry did not work. I had to replace my moisture senseing board. Read my post as Gene help me out alot. Seems like the same stuff would apply to you.
