Lound noise inside dryer
1. unplug the dryer, remove the aluminum vent and move it to an area that has a lot of elbow room. 2. remove the top lid with a flat screwdriver. It seems that the top lid was being held by 2 metal clips on each end. 3. on the right hand side removed the 2 wires from the front face of the dryer. this is the switch for the open door sensor. remember which wire goes where. 4. the on the left and right side will be one screw and one metal clip, unscrew and pop the front panel with a flat screwdriver. 5. in front of the drum remove the plastic clip that is used as a guide for the drum to be in place. 6. look in the drum and there is 3 screws that form a triangle shape. remove the screws. 7. remove the belt from the drum. inspect the belt. replace if necessary. 8. lift up and pull out the drum. 9. remove the rear drum assembly and replace it with the new parts. 10. repeat in reverse and your done. It took me 40 minutes the first time i replaced the rear drum assembly then i forgot to hook the belt up correctly and i unassemble the unit in 5 minutes fix the belt and assemble the unit in 5 more minutes. Now the wife is happy.

No Heat, Dryer Runs, But Right Side Of Timer Would Not Advance, Left Timer Would
I used the percentage scale on this website to try and determine the likely cause. After reading several sites, I couldn't make sense of the timer not working on just one type cycle. When I got the dryer drum off, I could plainly see that one of the heater coils was broken. They get heat stressed and break down over time and a hard shake probably finished this off. This unit is 5 plus years old. It was Saturday and I had no heater, so I actually found it at a local parts supplier. Also replaced the drum bearing and the bearing cup in the rear along with the heater. BTW, a new heater comes with a HIGH thermal switch attached to it so don't buy it extra. The bearing cone also comes with a new bushing in the pack. I DID use the Thermal Limiter that I order from the site because I was already in there. Everything works great now. I may have gotten most off my parts elsewhere but this site was the biggest help of them all. I will definitely be back here again.
Dryer would not turn on, no power. Since i already have replaced thermal limiter switch, i knew exactly what to do and also how to shorten installation
Remove 2 screws from back of unit, remove top by lifting and pulling up, set aside. Using pliers,needle-nose, remove the 2 wires from switch, then using a magitized philips screw driver, remove 2 screws holding switch to back of unit, replace switch, reassemble everything. 20 minutes, boom, ur done, dry some clothes now
Dryer display was showing E68 error code, and responding erratically to attempts to reset.
First, I had to decide if it was reasonable to attempt the repair. Was it worth spending $160 to see if that would fix it, or would I just find out I'd have to start fresh and buy a new dryer, in which case the cost of the (failed) repair would add to the total cost. I was sure enough a new Control was the answer, the decision was to go ahead.
I was concerned about getting the right part, but between your search feature that assured me my selection "will fit your unit", and the option to return the part if it wasn't right, I felt confident enough to order it. Also I was concerned about having good instructions to follow, but there was a YouTube video that showed all the details clearly. The included written instructions gave the general sequence to follow, but weren't for my specific model.
The actual repair was easy. Because the washer and dryer were stacked, it was harder to get to the back screws than in the YouTube video. I stood on a stepladder, and used an awl (with a mirror) to line up the holes when re-securing the top lid because I couldn't see them directly. I compared the new Control with the old by looking through the anti-static bag. If it looked wrong I wanted to be able to return it, and it had to be unopened to do so. Undoing the connectors, unscrewing the frame pieces holding the board, swapping out the boards, and putting it all back together went fine with the help of the video. I would recommend marking the old board to avoid installing it again by mistake. No, I didn't do that, but the old board was hardly dirty or worn and didn't look much different than the new one. Also, I didn't drop any of the screws, but if you do and they go down behind the unit or into it, one of those magnetic telescoping hardware retrievers might be useful.
That fixed it! 160 bucks instead of whatever a new dryer costs these days is a good tradeoff, and a whole lot less aggravation. It's been working fine ever since.
Main problem was the bearing, replaced the belt and felt seal as well The video instruction was very helpful Was easy with basic mechanical aptitude Dryer running great now All parts from Partselect.com Have ordered from them before and would order from them again
Popped in the new door catch! Tightened the hinge screws( which work loose and allow the door to droop. The reason the catch broke!) Also put red Loctite on the screws in an attempt to keep them from backing out again! Working great so far!!!
dryer stopped in middle of cycle and would not restart
followed the repair video and replaced thermal fuse and thermostat(recommend replacing both due to the problem could of resulted in either part being the cause),Repair went relatively easy.I also recommend to clean and vacuum the dryer while you have it all apart due to a lot of lint buildup and don't forget to unplug before servicing!Stay Safe!!!
Called a repair co. Said it would be about a week before he came to the rural area my mom lives and he probably wouldn't have the part. He would order it after he determined the problem. So I went to your web site and ordered the item it said was 80% and two other parts just in case. He came and used the Heating Element Assembly and said it was a good thing we had it. He would have had to order it and come back probably a week later. THANK YOU!! WE needed the dryer repaired sooner and saved another service call. I am returning the other parts not used and you make it so easy to do. I plan on using your site again.
