If the dryer has several symptoms, start with the one that affects normal use most. Then add details about dryer not heating, overheating, shutoff, or burning smell, and won't start or tumble, any displayed message, and whether the appliance should be stopped for safety before more use.
Describe the order of events, especially if sound, heat, water, cooling, movement, or display behavior changed together. If food, laundry, dishes, or ice are trapped by the failure, say that early so the call reflects the household impact. Keep the description observational and avoid removing panels, bypassing switches, or handling internal wiring. The goal is to give enough context for scheduling without turning the call into risky do-it-yourself diagnosis.
Keep the appliance area accessible where practical, but avoid disassembly. If there is water, heat, gas odor, sparking, or a burning smell, stop use and mention that immediately.
If possible, keep the dryer area reachable and note whether dryer not heating, overheating, shutoff, or burning smell, and won't start or tumble happened before or after a cycle, load, door opening, temperature change, or power reset.
Have the model details ready if they are easy to find safely.

The main symptom groups on this page include dryer not heating, overheating, shutoff, or burning smell, and won't start or tumble. Testing helps confirm which system is actually responsible before parts are replaced.
