FARE1011M
Frigidaire FARE1011M Electric Dryer Repair

Most common issues on this model
- Dryer that stops with the drum still wet
- Long cycles even on small loads
- Drum noise or a squeal on start-up
- Door that opens with a pop during a cycle
The FARE1011M is an Affinity high efficiency electric dryer in Classic White, and FARE1011MW is the matching label. It is an older model that many households still use, and we repair it when it makes financial sense.
A high efficiency dryer relies on correct airflow and a working moisture sensor to finish a load. We check the vent first, then the sensor strips, the thermistor and the heating element. For drum noise, we look at the belt, the idler pulley and the rollers. A door that pops open is usually a worn latch, and we replace the small parts first.
The data label supplies the exact number and serial, and we copy both before ordering. When an older dryer is no longer a good repair, we tell you. A written estimate is first, with a 30-day guarantee on our labor.

Error codes this model can show
Why do small loads take so long in an efficient dryer?
A partly blocked vent or a weak heating element stretches every cycle, whatever the load size. We measure airflow and heat output at the dryer to see which one is coming up short.
What makes the dryer end the cycle with damp clothes?
Dirty sensor strips, a failing thermistor or low heat. We clean the strips first because softener residue is a common cause, then test the heat.
Is it worth fixing a dryer from an older Affinity line?
Often, when the problem is a belt, roller, thermal part or heating element, since those parts are inexpensive. We quote the repair in writing and tell you honestly if a replacement is the better choice.
