Asko Dryer not heating
If your Asko dryer is not heating or you have dryer no heat, start with the thermal fuse — a blown thermal fuse is the most common cause and often points to a restricted vent, so check and clear the exhaust before replacing it. Next likely problems are a faulty drive motor with a bad centrifugal switch, failed gas valve solenoids on gas models, incorrect cycle or heat settings, and a burned-out igniter. Use a multimeter to test the thermal fuse and igniter for continuity; if the motor’s centrifugal switch has failed you’ll usually replace the whole motor, and gas valve coils should be replaced as a set when one fails. These faults are also why a dryer might not get hot or why clothes stay damp. If you need parts, enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to see exact replacement parts, diagrams, and repair videos tailored to your dryer so you can get back to working heat with the right components.
01 - Asko Dryer Thermal Fuse
The thermal fuse is a safety device designed to protect the dryer from overheating. The fuse is located on the blower housing or at the dryer’s heat source such as the heating element on electric dryers or at the burner on gas models. The fuse should be closed for continuity meaning it has a continuous electrical path through it when good. If overheated the fuse will have no continuity meaning the electrical path is broken and the fuse has blown. A multimeter can be used to test it for continuity. Be aware that a blown thermal fuse is an indication of a restricted exhaust vent from the dryer to the outside. Always check t...

02 - Asko Dryer Drive Motor
Most dryer drive motors have a centrifugal switch that energizes a start winding when the motor is first started and closes a heat cycle contact to allow the heat source to work. If the motor's centrifugal switch is faulty, either the motor won’t run or the motor will run but the dryer won’t heat. Since most centrifugal switches are not sold separately, the entire motor will need to be replaced if the switch is defective.

03 - Asko Dryer Gas Valve Solenoid
Gas dryers have two or more gas valve solenoid coils. The gas valve solenoids open the gas valve ports to allow gas to flow into the burner assembly. If a gas valve solenoid fails, the dryer won’t heat. To determine if one or more of the gas valve solenoids has failed, check the igniter. If the igniter glows and goes out but does not ignite the gas, the gas valve solenoid is defective. If one or more of the gas valve coils are defective, we recommend that you replace them as a set.
Highly Likely
04 - Incorrect cycle settings
Ensure the dryer is set to the appropriate heat setting. The setting may have been inadvertently changed to a non-heat option.
Highly Likely
05 - Incorrect cycle selected
The dryer setting may have been inadvertently changed to a non-heat option. Confirm the dryer is set to a proper heating option such as "Regular" or "Heavy" to see if that improves drying performance.
Highly Likely
06 - Asko Dryer Igniter
The igniter uses heat to ignite the gas in the burner assembly. If the igniter is not working, the gas will not ignite, preventing the dryer from heating. To determine if the igniter has burned out, use a multimeter to test the igniter for continuity. If the igniter does not have continuity, replace it.
