Brief description

The dryer showed a "vent blocked" message, and neither turning the dial nor pressing the buttons got a response. On this type of dryer, that warning usually points to airflow sensing or a restriction in the vent. Unresponsive controls point to trouble in the electronics behind the dial and buttons.

What We Did

We recalibrated the pressure sensor, which the dryer uses to monitor airflow conditions and interpret a vent warning. We also repaired the user interface, where the dial and button inputs are handled. These components have different jobs, so recalibrating the sensor does not take the place of repairing the controls. After both steps were complete, we tested the dryer to check its operation.

Our Working Process

Book Your Appointment
Pick an open 2-hour arrival window online or call the Raleigh team. Tell us the brand and what the appliance is doing so the technician brings the right parts.
Diagnosis & Written Estimate
The technician looks the appliance over and tells you what failed. Then you get a written estimate on the spot, with parts and labor included.
Your Decision
Nothing gets repaired until you approve the estimate. If you go ahead, the diagnostic fee is waived. If you don't, you pay the diagnostic fee and nothing else. And if a repair would run more than half the price of a new appliance, we'll tell you so you can decide.
Repair & Warranty
If the technician has the part with them, the repair is usually done the same visit. If it has to be ordered, you pick a time for us to come back. Pay by card, cash, check, or tap. Labor is covered for 90 days.
