Why your Fisher & Paykel dryer is burning smell
On a Fisher & Paykel dryer, burning smell usually announces itself like this: smell of burning rubber, plastic, or wiring. STOP USE — call us immediately. On this platform it's most often a failed sensor or switch. Left unaddressed, laundry backs up fast.

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before booking a repair, unplug it for a minute and try again, since a simple reset clears more faults than people expect. Also, confirm the dryer has power and rule out anything obvious — a tripped breaker, an unlatched door, a blocked vent. If it's still acting up after that, if the basics check out, the fault is inside the control system or a sealed component, and diagnosing that safely takes a technician's tools and training.
How we fix it
An experienced tech tests the Fisher & Paykel dryer systematically and pinpoints what's actually causing the burning smell. Genuine Fisher & Paykel parts are available but some DishDrawer and SmartDrive components are proprietary; refrigerator sealed-system repairs require an experienced technician. Most burning smell jobs finish same-day, at a flat price, under our warranty.
