Why your Maytag dryer is burning smell

The first things owners spot on a burning smell Maytag dryer: smell of burning rubber, plastic, or wiring. STOP USE — call us immediately. The usual culprit is an electrical or control fault. Left unaddressed, laundry backs up fast.

  • An electrical or control fault
  • A wiring or control-board problem

  • Bravos top-load bearing and lid-lock faults
  • Control board failures

The Maytag dryer died mid-week and they had it sorted before I'd even rearranged my schedule. The diagnostic fee came off the repair total, just like they promised.
