Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer

If your dryer is heating but the clothes are still damp, your vent is probably blocked. If your dryer has weak heat and runs for a long time, that could also be a blocked vent. And if your dryer ends after only a couple minutes with soaking wet clothes, your moisture sensors could be dirty. And these are only some of the possible causes. To make sure you're performing the right troubleshooting steps, first determine if your dryer has hot air at all, then we'll guide you through the steps to resolve your issue.
