Ben November 05, 2018 for Model Number MCE8000AYW Anyone know either the drum motor RPM or the actual dryer drum RPM? Mine now spins so fast that the clothes don't tumble but rather they stay stuck to the drum. Even a wrapped up tennis shoe does the same thing. Obviously, clothes won't dry like that. Recently had the broken motor pulley replaced and I fear that they used the wrong sized pulley..
1 Answer Ben, if you used the wrong motor pulley, it most certainly will cause the drum to spin faster, you should have used part number WP31001535, the wrong idler pulley will also cause a problem with the speed of the drum. The correct idler pulley number is WP31001710 Read More...
Dick January 27, 2018 for Model Number Jenn Air JDG2000 I received two wiring diagrams One I tried and the motor clicked, then nothing I tried to hook up the second scenario. the old #7 wire is to go on a 1/4 inch spot? is it the one where the blue jumper is? 20 people waiting on the phone line.
1 Answer Dick, The number 7 terminal would go to connector 6 on the new motor. The 1/4" thermal connector will have the white wire which is terminal 1 on the old motor. Read More...

William August 09, 2014 for Model Number PYE3360AYW My dryer is squeaking from motor area. Changed blower about 6 mths ago. Took everything apart and started dryer to make sure it was coming from there. No belt or drum was attached during test. Changed drum wheels about same time of blower. Where should I look next. Thanks for your help. William
1 Answer William, If the noise was there with nothing connected then you will want to check the blower wheel to make sure that there is nothing caught in it and if there is not then the motor bearing would be making the noise which would require a new motor W10410996. Read More...
John February 08, 2014 for Model Number maytag gas dryer PYG2300AWW My dryer has been running really rough lately. Today I tried to starting it and I got smoke coming out when I hold the start button in. I'm pretty sure its the motor and the overload is taking it out when I let up on the start button. When I looked up the part number it didn't match up with mine. My motor part no. is 53-3687 model S58NXMMY-6912. If I do replace the motor is there any other parts I should consider replacing while I got it apart?
1 Answer Hello John. You will want to check the rollers LA-1008 and the felt seals on the unit to see if they are bad when you replace the motor on the unit. Read More...
