Timothy K South Lyon , MI April 17, 2020 Appliance: Samsung Dryer DV350AEW/XAA-0000 The motor went out Purchased a motor, belt and a new idler pulley. Didn't need a belt but the original was stretched a little and the idler pulley was a little stiff. I watched the video, took it apart and took about twenty minutes to take it apart and put it back together.

William R Lafayette , LA August 11, 2019 Motor would not turn My wife told me the drum was not turning on the dryer. Removed vent tube from the back (easiest access to see inside). Belt was good, the pulley was good. Tried to turn drum manually. Would not turn at all. Took off belt and drum turned just fine. Still could not turn the motor spindle. Ordered motor from AppliancePartsPros. Easy to find online and easy order process. Received motor really quickly. Had to wait until the weekend to fix to have the time. Samsung dryer comes apart pretty easy and I've done it before. Once I removed blower fan cover I immediately saw the problem. A sock had found its way into the fan blade. It was wedged in there pretty good but was able to remove without damaging fins on the fan. Big Question: change motor anyway or put back together to test. Of course, I chose to put back together and test. Dryer worked great after assembly. Upon investigation, youngest son (adult) forgot to mention that he ran the dryer without the filter just before it stopped working. Duh! Hoping to RMA motor if Appliance Parts Pros will allow. Would definitely order again from A.P.P. Read More... 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 2+ hours Tools: Socket Set, Wrench Set
Ameen G Hopewell , NJ February 15, 2019 Appliance: Samsung Dryer DV330AEB/XAA-0003 Motor replacement for the Samsung dryer. I replaced the drum /blower motor for my Samsung dryer, but here are a few tips to help you if you're doing the same. The replacement motor sent, had slightly different dimensions from the original part. The belt drive wheel sits about 5 mm closer to the motor than on the original (the shaft is shorter) therefore the drum belt rides very close (mm) to some of the motor hardware...It's very close, so just be cautious. On the other end, of the motor, the shaft that connects to the blower fan was out of spec (just a mm too big in diameter) as a result the blower fan did not seat properly on the shaft and the blower extended out and rubbed against the blower duct cover. I grinded away just a bit of material from the diameter of the shaft and the blower fan was then seated correctly in the duct. Once put together its all working fine.
