Customer Questions and Answers for Dryer Blower Wheel by Whirlpool

4.89 (64)
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM18031815
Manufacturer Part Number: WP694089

This is the blower wheel that mounts on the motor shaft inside the dryer and circulates heated air through the drum and out the exhaust vent. It draws moist air away from clothes to facilitate drying. Replace this part if the dryer is noisy, makes a rattling or squealing sound, takes too long to dry clothes, or if the blower fins are cracked or broken.

Chuck for Model Number mgdc300xw1

Hello ..my dryer still makes noise. I replaced the pulleys, idler and the belt. I was wondering if it is the blower fan? It still drys very good and there is alot of airflow coming from the the vent. My older dryer by maytag had fan Y303836 that would constantly round out the inner nub, causing this type of noise (it would also take long time to dry items). However, my current dryer MGDC300XW1 has a threaded on fan(no longer a d shaft), but the noise sounds the same(like a warbling fan). I am having hard time believing it is the fan given this new design and it still drys good ....but not sure what else it could be.

Answer

Chuck, It still could be a cracked blower wheel or something wrapped around the blower or motor shaft and "tapping" the blower housing. If there is a cracked or broken blower vane or rail the wheel will go out of round and tap, it could also be a build up of lint on a couple of vanes causing the wheel to "wobble" like an out of balanced wheel.
