How to Troubleshoot & Replace Frigidaire AP2142620 / 5303281074 Guide Clip

Took the old one off and replaced it with a new one. 

Just part replacement. Just a few screws to remove to take off top and front panels. Easy to remove drum. More screws to remove and replace heating element. More screws for bearing for drum. Driving screws into drum took some elbow grease, had to be careful not to strip the heads, did on one and replaced with one of the original screws. Replacing gasket simple, although scraping the old adhesive was a chore. Replaced the belt for good measure. As long as the motor holds out, the dryer should be ready for several more years of service. 

I repaired the heating element and replaced the bearing. 

I ordered the bearing kit along with a new belt. The kit was perfect everything you need is included. This made the repair easy. Also I put in a new heat coil as our dryer is 10 years old for under $100.00 for all parts why not change it out while your in there. The video was helpful as well. I have not had a dryer apart before so the step by step video instruction was a plus. The parts got here very fast. Now with the new parts installed dryer works great!!! I did get a phone estimate from an appliance company and they quoted me about 250-300 bucks for repair. (Kenmore dryer) 

I replaced the motor. Since I had to remove the drum I also replaced the rear drum bearing since it was the original one. 

Installed new rear drum bearing kit. Called APP to confirm that the kit would fit my dryer model. Ordered on a Wednesday afternoon and received the part the next day by 5pm! Watched the instructional video that pertained to changing out the part supplied on APP.com and had the fix done in less than an hour!!! Great service and super helpful video. 

Watch a couple videos presented by appliancepartspros, it literally shocked me how easy it looked to repair dryer. Instead buying a new dryer I thought, parts where $60, looks easy, why not DiY. Went to their website and ordered the parts. The parts arrived in 2days with normal shipping as advertised! 1hr later she's working and quite, no vibrations as if new! If I had to repair it again, I could easily fix in less than 15 minutes, aside from letting adhesive dry. Highly recommend watching their videos pertaining to your issues and definitely ordering from appliancepartspros! THANKS! 

I noticed the belt was worn from a prior repair so I ordered one and it showed up a a few days later. Having already been into the dryer once, removal of the front panel was quick. Using a long wooden dowel gave me plenty of leverage against the spring loaded adjuster pulley. I had the belt changed in less than 5 minutes. Total time from start to finish was about 20 minutes. (This is also a great time to clean and vacuum out any lint). Then re-installed the front panel! Love this website!!!
