Gerard R Grand Rapids , MI April 08, 2016 The dryer would only make a humming noise when you switched it on I determined that the motor was seized up so I ordered a replacement along with a belt since I knew I would have it apart during the repair. With the help of on-line videos, I was able to replace it myself in about an hour. Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 1-2 hours
