Dryer not heating properly Hashem N. • Los Angelos , CA • October 26, 2014
This Maytag dryer was bought in 1985 if memory serves. It has worked hard with few repairs done by yours truly over the years.
Thanks to the engineering and excellent design by Maytag staff, removing parts are relatively easy.
Once I opened the unit, I found it to be full of lint. I cleaned the entire inside and the vent pipe duct work.
I found the blower wheel assembly worn. Though it was not cause of my problem, I decided to change it along with the igniter, heater relay and the fan belt. I...

First, I rooked on YouTube for a video on how to fix it. The video brought me to a very helpful video with a link to your website.

I went on the website, entered the model number of my dryer and then a search link for a parts search. Not knowing the part number, I was able to find the exact thing I needed.

Noisy & inefficient Richard M. • Indianapolis , IN • December 06, 2016
After having replaced the drum support rollers twice in a roughly 3yr period, I realized something wasn't quite right, and indeed it wasn't. I had been ordering the wrong parts - I did use the online parts locator after checking, & double checking my model number. Apparently my older Whirlpool dryer has a somewhat ambiguous model number because the rollers that were shipped each time looked nothing like the originals. I realize that is not particularily uncommon - manufacturers often modify...

Could not remove old power cord from back of dryer (screw heads stripped due to soft metal) Michael A. • Lewiston , ME • August 26, 2017
I had to remove my dryer so I could install a new floor. The dryer would not fit through the doorway with the power cord attached. Since the power cord was fastened to the back using 3 phillip headed screws, I gently backed them out with a phillip headed screwdriver. However, two of the 3 screws gave me extreme trouble. The head of the screws were made of such a weak metal, that the screw head began stripping. I have a phillip screw kit with different sized heads, so I picked a head that...

The dryer made a horrible metal on metal scraping noise when running Anna D. • Santa Rosa , CA • January 28, 2017
We opened the dryer up with help from the videos on your site, and came to the conclusion that the rear drum-support rollers needed to be replaced. We thought the front bearing and seal looked a little past-it as well, so we ordered that and a new bearing ring to go with it, and a new dryer belt (just so we wouldn't have to get back into it again any time soon).
I ordered the parts (standard shipping) at 4:30 PST on Tuesday and they arrived before 3:00 the next day!
