Fix loud banging, grinding noise, or poor drying performance with a new dryer blower wheel. Restores proper airflow through drum and exhaust vent.

Removal of the blower assembly required the use of penetrating lubricant as the assembly was stuck on the motor... Read more

The lint trap guide cover was cracked on our LG dryer which sees pretty heavy use at our rental cabins. AppliancePartsPros.com got us the replacement part in about 48 hours.

I disassembled/reassembled the dryer according to the ApplianceParts Youtube video.

After diagnosing the problem (bad thermistor), I had to order the parts and was able to repair and reassemble the dryer several days later.
