LG dryer was taking three cycles to dry a single load in Walnut Creek. Turned out the vent was 80% blocked with lint — technician cleared the full run and replaced the moisture sensor. Dries in one cycle now.

Broken drive belt
Failed drum rollers
Worn drum bearing
Seized idler pulley
Motor failure
The flat rubber belt wrapping the drum cracks and snaps from dry rot. Sacramento garages with daily temperature swings (cool morning to 110+ afternoon) cycle the rubber through expansion and contraction, creating micro-cracks that propagate until the belt snaps. Motor hums but drum is still.
Cost: $100–$180 | Time: 40-55 minutes
The idler pulley bearing seizes from lint infiltration and heat. In Sacramento conditions, bearing grease thins from high ambient temperature and migrates out of the bearing, leaving it dry. The pulley locks up, and the belt either snaps or slips off the pulley entirely.
Cost: $100–$200 | Time: 40-50 minutes
Drum rollers that are severely worn can seize, creating too much resistance for the motor to overcome. The motor tries to turn but stalls and trips its thermal overload. Sacramento heat softens roller rubber during the day, and weight deformation hardens when cool — eventually the flat spot seizes.
Cost: $130–$260 | Time: 45-70 minutes
Drive motors fail from overheating when combined with Sacramento ambient heat and vent restrictions. The motor either will not run at all (winding open) or hums but cannot overcome starting torque (failed start capacitor or seized bearing). Burnt smell confirms motor failure.
Cost: $180–$300 | Time: 60-90 minutes

Samsung dryer kept shutting off after ten minutes in San Mateo. Technician found the thermal fuse had blown due to a clogged exhaust vent. Replaced the fuse and cleared the vent — works perfectly now.
Whirlpool gas dryer was producing no heat at all in our Hayward apartment. Tech found the gas valve solenoid had failed and replaced it on the first visit. Clothes come out warm and dry in one cycle.
