Ruth June 14, 2021 for Model Number NDE5805AYW my tube wont turn when it has full load and when it does turn it rolls the clothes in a ball
1 Answer Ruth, With the clothes getting balled up, check to make sure that none of the baffles are damaged. This issue sounds like either the rollers are seizing up and not turning or the motor has become weak. Read More...
Ron May 18, 2018 for Model Number ED5PHEXRO00 I have installed both rollers (WP37001042) on my Whirlpool electric dryer but my dryer still squeaks for about 30 seconds at the start, 90 seconds shorter than before. The squeaking sound seems to come from the right side (facing the dryer).
1 Answer Hello Ron, I'm sorry but we will need to ask you to please post a new question including the verified model number from the units' I.D. tag since the one provided will not come up for us as a valid model number for a dryer but is bringing up a refrigerator. As far as the noise goes, you will need to check the idler wheel and the front glides. These are the most common cause of this complaint besides the drum rollers. While you have the unit apart you should spin the motor by hand to ensure the sound is not coming from the motor bearings. Read More...
Jim May 18, 2017 for Model Number Asko T760 Hi: I am looking for a 2" X 3/8 (ish) thick roller. I know it wont have the bearing like the Asko- but factory rollers don't seem to be available. I think this will work- you? Thanks Jim
1 Answer Jim, Unfortunately we do not have any information on Asko products to be able to assist with your question. Read More...
Eric B April 03, 2017 for Model Number ALE643RAW This maybe 15 year old Amana dryer has slowly lost its desire to tumble, particularly with a heavy load. For while it sounded like the motor ran, but the drum did not rotate. Next time I tried it would rotate normally. More recently the motor buzzed and tripped on thermal overload. After it cooled down, and I rotated the drum, the dryer seemed to work normally. The drum seemed more difficult to rotate than it should. I followed your videos (very helpful!) and removed the drum. The belt is shot (many cracks, missing some chunks). The rollers seem worn with a little bearing play, but not really binding - even if I put load on them. The drum support pads are worn but still intact (although the drum has many flat spots where it rested on the pads). The idler pulley is not binding. The motor, however, is more difficult to turn than other motors of this size that I have worked with. I can change out the rollers and pads, but if the motor is failing I may want to look for a new dryer. Suggestions?
1 Answer Eric, Check to make sure that there is nothing caught in the blower wheel which would cause the motor to not turn freely. If this checks ok then it sounds like the motor may be starting to fail. Read More...
Ken March 22, 2016 for Model Number Maytag model MED9600SOO The set ring on this unit is a triangle that does not have the two holes and no slot to spread open. How does it come off?
1 Answer Hello Ken. You use needle nose pliers and flex the tri ring enough to remove it from the shaft. Read More...
