Dan K Newfoundland , PA March 31, 2020 Appliance: Kenmore Dryer 41782042101 Kenmore Dryer 41782042101: Loud noise from motor bearings. How to replace Motor. After replacing the main drum bearing and still having this loud noise after warm up, I disconnected the belt from the drive motor and the noise remained. Placing an order for a new motor with the added cost for one day delivery, the motor did arrive the next day. I watched the very instructive video on motor replacement with the hint that the fan was attached to the motor with a Left hand thread. Removal and installation too less than 10 minutes. The complete re-assembly of the dryer and placement back into position was accomplished in under 30 minutes. This supplier will ALWAYS be my first choice for replacement parts.
