Took the front panel off (the door front), disconnected the connector to the door switch and used a wooden clothespin to bypass the door switch. Turned on the dryer to locate loud squeaking sound and found it was coming from the motor area. When I started to take the blower section apart from the motor, that is when I saw the "blower wheel" slipped off the motor shaft. The blower wheel has a "C" clip retainer and compression ring to keep it snug on the motor shaft (but it was loose). Now I... Read more
This short drum baffle is one of the interior fins that tumbles clothes as your dryer drum rotates. It helps lift and drop laundry to improve drying efficiency and prevent clothes from bunching together.

After some research and some testing with a multimeter, it turned out the lid check switch was bad. Instead of purchasing the entire switch assembly, I purchased just the switch that was bad.

Blower wheel's hub was shattered around motor shaft. Ordered new one. Cleaned out lint buildup. Took off... Read more

This was a Maytag DE312 actually a Whirlpool labeled as Maytag) and is 27 years old. Replaced motor, drive belt and drum rollers. One tricky part was the motor because the new motor comes with integral starter and it was necessary to cut off existing female spade connectors on some wires and crimp on new connectors. Instructions were adequate but need to be carefully followed and a decent electrical stripping and crimping tool must be at hand. I bought a new motor drive pulley because another... Read more
