It took two repair attempts to fix the dryer. At first, I noticed that the rear felt seal was completely worn out, so I thought that extra friction between the tub and the rear panel might be causing the motor to have to work too hard and overheat. I ordered a new seal from appliancepartspros.com, and installed it according to their instructional video, but it did not correct the problem. Then I decided that the motor must be going bad, so I watched the on-line video on how to remove the motor and detached it from the blower fan. Then I removed the motor form our dryer, basically just like the video showed. The video had also mentioned that the old blower fan may be stuck or get damaged and that it may need to be chiseled off, which actually did happen to me. However, the video also showed how to do that, so it wasn't difficult to do. I ordered a new motor and blower fan on a Friday morning and the parts arrived on Tuesday afternoon. The installation went very well and within an hour the dryer was working like new.
I also recently had to replace the element in our dishwasher and the main electronics module in our stove and those repairs went just as smooth and easy. I really appreciate the installation and repair videos that are available on appliancepartspros,com, as well as their large selection of part and their extremely reasonable prices, as well as their reasonable shipping fees and their return 365-Day, any part, any reason return policy.
