I replaced the gas coils, thermal fuse and thermostat. The dryer seems to still take a while to get hot. It seems warms at first then at the end of the cycle is hot. Time for drying seems longer than "normal." Any suggestions on what the problem might still be?

Robert G for Model Number 110.74882401

Answer Robert, With replacing the components that you have already replaced then you will want to look at venting. The venting should be clean and clear. You will want to check from the blower when all the way from the blower wheel to the outside of your home. This is one of the most common reasons for a dryer to stop heating properly.

How do I know if the dryer has a thermal fuse heat shield or not in order to buy the correct element?

I have a maytag neptune electric dryer that is not working correctly. Here is what I have found. The dryer will turn on, the drum will spin but there is not air movement and the heating element is not heating either ( I have front off and door off and I'm turning the dryer on, I know not recommended). I have replaced the entire heating element and shroud with in the last year. What should I be looking for now.

Ernie for Model Number MDE3000AYW

Answer Hello Ernie. You need to check and see if the blower wheel 33001790 is stripped out on the unit. Also, for the heating issue, Check and make sure you have 240 volts coming to the dryer. Check and make sure the unit is not set to Air Fluff. Also check the heater and thermostats and see if they are good. You can test these with a multi-meter TJMA-DM1. They should read closed for continuity. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Latest Questions

How practical would it be to convert a Maytag Neptune gas dryer to electric? Would the electric heater assembly fit? Is the computer board specific to the heat source? I don't have natural gas available where I live, I realize I could convert the dryer to propane easily enough, but I fear it would cost a fortune to run, and there is no propane line in the laundry area.

Mmcginty for Model Number MDG5500WW

Answer Hi M. I'm not saying it can not be done. But the practicality is the issue. You would need to change the control panel part # 33002536, the control board part # 33003028 , the wire harness part # 33002616 and the heater assy. part # 307178 the heater relay part # 306199 and possibly the front lint enclosure panel with the sensors needed. Please let us know if we can help out further. Thank You.

During the past few months, our dryer was not getting hot enough to dry the clothes. I cleaned out the ductwork to the exterior, plus I cleaned out as much as I could get to inside the dryer, no change, still less heat. A day or two ago the dryer stopped making any heat at all, but the blower works, and the inside rotates. Any suggestions on what part, or parts, I should obtain to start my repairing? Sid

Answer Hello Sid. Check and make sure you have 240 volts coming to the dryer. Check and make sure the unit is not set to Air Fluff. Also check the heater Y308612 and thermal fuses 303396 307473 and see if they are good. You can test these with a multi-meter TJMA-DM1. They should read closed for continuity. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

My dryer is not getting hot enough also. It takes 2 full runs to dry fully. All the vents are cleared, The heating coils are all glowing full when on. I just replaced the moisture sensor & the high temp thermostat. Yes I cleaned out the lint filter area & the blower wheel is turning. The moisture sensor light used to always show high, but now just the low light. Please help.

Jamie for Model Number mde7657ayw

Answer Jamie, you've checked a lot of things, a couple of more things. Check the rubber seal between the blower housing and the inlet duct, make sure there is a tight fit between the two comonents, if it's sucking room air into the blower, it throws the thermostats off. Check and make sure the dryer is level in both directions, When you replaced the moisture sensor, did you clean the surrounding area and make sure the wires were attached properly to the bar and frame, if thats alright then you'll need to repalce the dryness control display. the light "HI" light should illuminate whenever something damp/wet touches the new moisture sensor bar, a new bar and if the wires are OK the problem would be in the display board 33002389 . Thanks and Good Luck
