Larry T Morristown , TN December 10, 2017 Appliance: Model DLE7177RM (ACREEUS) Dryer would start then quit after about 5 seconds. No error codes-timer running nasal burnt smell. I replaced the dryer motor. I followed the repair video on the Appliance Parts Pro site, with a few modifications to the procedure. I loosened the control panel and flipped it forward to improve access to the wiring connectors. I also loosened the front panel and tipped it forward before disconnecting the door switch as there wasn't enough space to disconnect the switch otherwise. Removal of the blower assembly required the use of penetrating lubricant as the assembly was stuck on the motor shaft. While I had the drum out, I took the opportunity to vacuum the lint out of the chassis.

Larry H Columbus , NJ November 08, 2020 Appliance: LG Dryer DLE8377NM Motor bearings were very noisy. Replaced the motor. It takes pretty much a complete disassembly of the dryer. If it is as old as mine (16 years) I would also recommend replacing the roller wheels and belt as well. It now runs just like new; unbelievably smooth and quiet.

Did the research and all said the same thing: Clean the filter, Change the heater assembly, and the blower wheel. Watched the Install video and it looked easy enough. Since I was doing a complete breakdown of the dryer. I decided to change the heater, belt, and blower wheel. The dryer is 15+ years old. Installed the parts....dryer is back in new condition.
