You probably have dry bearings from all the heat over the years. Unplug the unit and remove the back to expose the bearing and shaft. Using a light oil such as 3-in-1 squirt oil into the bearing and let it soak in. Do this several times and keep a rag under the bearing to catch any excess oil. Odds are that with a little lubricant the dryer will quiet down and work fine for many more years. This would also be a good time to clean any lint and dust bunnies out of the unit. Reassemble and test. You should be good to go. Let me know if I can be of anymore help.

You may have one of several parts malfunctioning. If the water level sensor isn't working or the water solenoid sticks, this will happen. Let it fill and when it is at a point where it should shut off, check for voltage at the water solenoid (should be where the hoses hook up) If there is voltage there, the sensor is suspect. The sensor is behind the knob or buttons that get set for the load size. There is a tube running down into the tub from the sensor. That could be blocked. Otherwise, the sensor itself is probably your best bet.

Good Morning Anonymous, this is Z. I am happy to assist you! I understand that your door indicates it is open and your dryer will not operate. Let's attempt resetting your dryer by either unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker off. It is good to wait approximately ten minutes and turn on your dryer. Select a normal cycle and verify if your dryer will start. If your dryer will not operate then it possibly have a faulty door lock assembly or a communication problem with the control board. At this point, it would be advisable to contact an experienced appliance repair tech to assist further.

Sure sounds like your timer has bit the dust. I'm not sure if the timer is still available. You have a great washer there. Good luck.

The machine does not exist as you have written it. There are two likely reasons The door switch has failed and hasn't passed the self test procedure. or the control board / timer has failed. Try power cycling it. Remove the mains plug for an hour. It is has an On Off button press it for a minute. For a knob, full it and leave two minutes. Plug back in and try again. https://www.google.com/search?q=Frigidaire+FWAC+19B5MSGNW ..

Hi, Please power cycle your dryer and attempt to run it again. If this fails, please ensure that your clothes are evenly distributed so that they weight of the clothes doesn't cause the dryer to be shutdown. Just to double check, please ensure that you've cleaned the lint track of your dryer. Lastly, you can use an power outlet extender to help switch the power outlet that you're using to run your dryer as there might be something wrong with your current one. Thank you.

There could be several issues that could cause your Frigidaire dryer to stop running after just a few seconds. Here are a few potential problems to consider:

1. Thermal fuse: The thermal fuse is a safety device that shuts off the dryer if it overheats. If the fuse has blown, the dryer will not run.
2. Clogged dryer vent: If the dryer vent is clogged, it can cause the dryer to overheat, which could trip the thermal fuse.
3. Faulty cycling thermostat: The cycling thermostat regulates the dryer's temperature. If it's faulty, the dryer may not run for more than a few seconds.
4. Faulty start switch: If the start switch is faulty, it could prevent the dryer from running.
5. Faulty door switch: The door switch prevents the dryer from running when the door is open. If the switch is faulty, the dryer may not run.

To fix the problem, you'll need to diagnose which of these issues is causing the problem and then replace the faulty part. I recommend having a mechanic diagnose and fix the problem for you.
