1) The air drawn in isn’t being properly heated, or
Few experiences are more frustrating than opening your dryer expecting the delightful warmth of a soft, fresh pile of dry and fluffy laundry…
If the fuse looks good, the next wet laundry culprit is a faulty heating element. This is the coil that actually heats up to provide the warmth that dries your clothes. If you’re feeling brave, you can test the coil for continuity with a multimeter.
…only to find a musty smell and cold, damp clothing items flattened against each other in a sad little heap at the bottom of the dryer.
2) Moisture can’t escape
The main reasons why a dryer won’t dry are usually because:
Before anything else, be sure that your dryer is properly plugged in and that it is a few inches away from the wall to provide adequate ventilation. Also, ensure that you’re not overloading your dryer with massive laundry loads. And double-check that no one has changed your usual settings.
In addition, double-check for other obstructions, such as bird nests or outdoor debris. Clogged dryer vents are a top cause of household fires and should be cleared annually, even if your dryer is not experiencing issues.
Back to Basics
If you’ve troubleshot to the best of your ability and still can’t seem to pinpoint the cause of your continually bedraggled laundry loads, it’s probably time to have an expert take a look.
You might also consider the possibility of a faulty thermostat–which would falsely tell your dryer that the temperature is higher than it really is.
Yuck.
Thermal Fuse
It’s always worth double-checking the basics before proceeding further.
Aside from the immediate disappointment of not being able to wear your favourite outfit or put the sheets back on the guest bed, you’ll also be wanting to know what’s wrong with your dryer and how to make sure this scenario doesn’t repeat itself. After all, that’s the whole point of owning a dryer in the first place!

Both problems can be caused by a lint clog or blockage.
If you’ve cleared your dryer’s filter and venting system and your clothes are still coming out damp, you may have a blown thermal fuse. This could have occurred due to overheating from a previous blockage (or another cause) and would mean that your dryer no longer has the capacity to heat up.
