How to Troubleshoot & Replace Lg AP4440606 / 5231EL1003B Dryer Lint Filter

The drum rollers, belt, and idler pulley were replaced. The repair was done by my son and husband. The job was not hard at all. My dryer works like brand new and is so dang quiet. Plus it dries a lot faster. 

A dryer without a filter is really no good. I ordered mine and it came right away and it’s just great to have a great experience thanks 

I just got the serial number off my dryer entered it and it pulled up all the parts for my dyer. I found what I needed, ordered it, it came in fairly quickly. Inserted it, fit perfectly. All done online, thanks for making it so easy. 

Replaced rollers and belt. Got the right parts at the right time! 

I replaced the thermistor, the thermostat, and the lint trap. In addition, once I had the drum out, it was apparent that there was entirely too much lint on the inside of the dryer housing and heating element, so everything got a good vacuum out & dust off. I also noted that the fan shaft had hair and threads wrapped around it, so with the help of an Exacto knife, carefully removed all from the shaft. Installed new parts, put everything back together & gave it a test run. HEAT!!!!! It was well worth the investment in time and money. Most of the time was invested in simply cleaning everything. The part removal and replacement were quite quick. There was one point where I was not sure how to reseat a set of wires, but I had taken pictures with my phone for my own reference and verified the correct orientation. This would have been completed much quicker, had I not taken the time to do the extra cleaning. 

Purchased a new one. 

Watched You Tube repair video to determine cause of sound. Determined it was not a difficult repair and that I could do myself with my tools on hand. Replaced front support rollers and cleaned the interior of my LG dryer. While systems were open, I also cleaned the lint ducts. 

Purchase new and proper lint filter and it fits perfect. Removed and replaced damaged bulb 

Replaced thermistor, high limit thermostat, and thermostat. My dryer is in a very tight, hard to access location, which was part of the reason it took so much time. The videos were lifesavers. My dryer is a Kenmore with a steam attachment, but otherwise the same as the LG in the video. I just had to improvise a bit to get the steam assembly out of the way so I could remove the drum. Unfortunately all the parts I replaced required drum removal. All parts but one came in overnight as promised. The part in the bag labeled High Limit Thermostat was incorrect (it happens), but I called and the correct part was shipped to me overnight. Service was very prompt and courteous. I have used this company twice now and I recommend them. 

New humidity sensor, general cleanup and a new lint filter. Wish I would have known when ordering humidity sensor that there were two of them.
