Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You
It would shut off mid cycle and stop drying heat and drum worked fine. Michelle M. • Erlanger , KY • June 27, 2021
I noticed if I caught it early enough the light inside would be on. I googled it and found that it could be the door latch slipping and letting the door open, which would stop the dryer. I watched the video on Appliance Parts Pros and it was so simple. I ordered a new door latch and catch and fixed it in 2 minutes! Thank you so much!

Broken fill valve John N. • Tumwater , WA • July 14, 2015
The video associated with the part was easy to understand. The actual repair was easy - maybe 10 minutes. But getting the top casing of the washer fitted back over the base was a huge pain. That took 8 tries to finally get it locked in just right. The washer is 20+ years old though.
The parts were all exactly correct and fit perfectly. Shipping time was excellent. Parts arrived in about 2 days with "standard" shipping.
The washer works great now. This is the second major repair I've done...
