Maytag gas dryer
 

We own a Maytag gas dryer model # LDG9606AAE Intelli - Dry purchased in 1997
that seems to dry ok in regular mode but always seems to leave cloths wet or
damp in Intelli-dry mode.

Just wondering what to look for . I do have most tools that I think I would
need to repair this. Just looking for some guidance.

Thanks Ivan

Is it humid where you live? Have you cleaned/checked the vent recently?
Is the filter clean?
Screwing around with the settings may be more expensive than using the
timer.

I have a Neptune series and gave up on the auto dry function. Certain times
of the year it just does not work all that well.

Do you use dryer sheets in the dryer?.. If so, these will put a waxy
coating over the sensors in the drum so the clothes don't make good contact
with the sensors during the tumble. It only takes about three months for
this to happen. The solution...wipe off the waxy coating with a little
alcohol

Hi,

For sure check the sensor bars as Tom suggested....if coated, clogged
with hair or lint the sensor may tell the control the wrong info and
the dryer thinks the clothes are dry.
