Frigidaire Affinity FAQE7011K Dryer Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Dryer that will not start or hum when started
- Heat that cuts out partway through the cycle
- Drum that grinds or catches while turning
- Long dry times even with a clean lint screen
The FAQE7011K is a Black-finish Affinity electric dryer with a 7.0 cubic foot drum. Other units of it are labeled FAQE7011KB, FAQE7011KR or FAQE7011KW. It is an older model that many homes still use, and we repair these when it is a good value.
A dryer that hums but does not turn points us to the belt, the motor and the drum support. Heat that cuts out is tied to the thermal fuse, the cycling thermostat and the heating element. Long dry times usually trace to airflow, so we check the lint screen, the housing and the vent before suggesting a part.
A finish or revision letter can change which part fits, so the whole number and serial are noted from the label. The price is given in writing, and we guarantee the repair for 30 days.

Error codes this model can show
My dryer hums but the drum will not turn. What is wrong?
The belt may have broken, the idler pulley may have seized or the motor may be failing. We open the cabinet and check the belt and pulley first, because those are the most common causes.
Why does the heat cut out in the middle of a cycle?
A tired heating element, a thermostat that opens too soon or a thermal fuse that blew from poor airflow can do it. We test each one and check the vent.
Does the color letter at the end of the number matter?
It can. This number is also sold as FAQE7011KB, KR or KW, and the revisions may use different parts. We read the label to order the right one.
