Dryer won't heat or shows E64 error? High-limit thermostat cuts power if overheating occurs. Moderate DIY fix with our video guide and instructions.
My appliance repair guy checked out the problem, but the stack washer dryer required the contractor to dismantle the cabinet to allow the repair to occur. So i wanted the parts available for the repair, so we would not have to have the dryer pulled apart in a small space for an extended time i ordered the parts on Friday afternoon and they arrived at my home before noon on Saturday! The contractor and the repairman were able to coordinate the repair on Tuesday morning, and though the... Read more
Washer won't spin or drain? Error code E47? The door lock assembly often causes these issues. This moderately easy repair typically takes 30 minutes.
I ran a diagnostics check on the washing machine and came up with the error code E47 -Board thinks the door PTC circuit is open in spin. The washer thought the door was open and would not finish the spin. I was left with a washer full of very wet clothes. This repair was SO extremely easy. I only needed to uses a pair of needle nose pliers and a screw driver. It took less than 10 minutes, start to finish. Now the new door lock assembly registers correctly and my clothes are completely... Read more
Dryer won't start or shuts off unexpectedly? A failed thermal limiter is often the cause. This safety fuse prevents overheating. DIY repair in 30-45 minutes.
Recommendations have fun and a bucket to prevent losing parts. First watch the videos, practice disassemble and reassemble the dryer drum. Make certain you have a good screw driver and spatula from kitchen (could not find my putty knife). Secondly, clean and inspect everything, make sure the motor bearing and belt pulleys are in good condition with little or no play. Third after you have confidently disassembled, vacuum cleaned, inspected all the worn parts, grease the motor and pulley,... Read more
Dryer drum won't turn or making loud banging noises? A broken drum belt is the likely cause. This belt connects the motor to the drum for rotation.
Replaced the belt. Read more
Supports the dryer drum for smooth rotation. Replace if your dryer squeals, makes grinding noises, or the drum sags. Verify fit with your model number.
The dryer is a Kenmore Laundry Center, model 417-99570150. Bought in 1998, so it is an older model. Not wanting to buy the newer ones that are out now. We opted to fix the Kenmore. Just believe the older models are worth fixing, if at all possible. Frist we had to figure out what parts we would need and if the cost would be worth our time. I went on YouTube: and type in Kenmore dryer not turning on. Watched several videos to narrow down the possible problem. Next step was to... Read more
Seals the gap between drum and front panel to prevent air leakage and clothes snagging. Replace if worn, torn, or causing thumping noise. Verify fit.
My 12 year old Frigidaire stack on top dryer had been beeping distress messages in some unintelligible code for about a year when it completely stopped producing heat. It also had a long standing issue with delicate fabrics and thin straps or drawstrings getting caught in the drum. After using this site to troubleshoot and viewing the useful how-to videos, I ordered and replaced the heating element, thermal limiter, and felt seals. Based on others' stories, I decided to also replace the rear... Read more
Supports the front of the dryer drum for smooth, quiet rotation. Replace if you hear scraping noise or see wear marks. Verify fit with your model number.
The very easy diagnosis was motor seizure. Because the machine is about a decade old, I decided to renovate most of the guts. My DIY project included replacing the motor, blower, drum bearing, belt, and door hinge. The end result is a functional dryer with no left-over parts. Lack of parts and hardware challenged the effort. For example, the blower assembly did not have the slide capture for the motor. I had to use the old one which is showing its age. With the exception of the drum... Read more
Dryer not heating or clothes staying damp? This heating element restores proper drying. Moderate DIY repair—requires disassembly and multimeter testing.
Dryer won't start or stops mid-cycle? A broken door catch prevents secure closure, triggering safety shutoffs. Simple snap-in replacement, 1 minute.
Shock absorber kit for front-load washers. Includes 2 absorbers, pins, and hardware. Replace when broken, cracked, or worn to restore stability.
I watched the video posted by Jerrod Sessler on yellow van handyman.com. Then I had to unstack the dryer from the washer, remove all covers, disconnect all hose connections, shock mounts and springs and remove the tub assembly. Then I disassembled the tub assembly and remove seal and both bearings from the rear half. At this point I cleaned everything. I installed new bearings and seal, installed the basket and assembled both tub halves using a new gasket and silicone, and reinstalled the... Read more
Seals the gap between drum and front panel to retain heat and reduce friction. Replace if worn, torn, or clothes catch in drum. Verify fit with model number.
Replaced the upper and lower felt strips and drum glides. Dryer running much quieter and not tearing clothes. Read more

Ordered a new one from the website, matched the model and the picture Read more
Supports the rear of your dryer drum for smooth, even rotation. Replace if drum wobbles, makes noise, or doesn't turn properly. Verify fit by model number.
Washer won't drain or makes loud whining noise? This drain pump removes water between cycles. DIY repair takes 30-40 minutes with basic tools.
Replace the drain pump after watching a video demonstrating the process. The washing machine had run properly and emptied, so I was surprised how much water remained in the pipe after disconnecting the old pump. Plan on having 2-3 large towels underneath before removing it. The most difficult part (and most irritating) was replacing the intake and outtake hoses with the existing spring clamps. The drain hose into the pump took almost twenty minutes to attach properly. If the hardware store was... Read more
The Drum Drive Belt is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It connects the drum to the motor, enabling the drum to rotate and tumble the clothes during drying cycles. The belt is 54 inches long and 5/8 inches wide
You should replace this drum drive belt if it becomes worn out, frayed, or broken due to the high heat and friction involved in the drying process. Additionally, improper loading or overloading of the dryer can cause the belt to stretch or snap.
Symptoms of a bad drum drive belt include:
This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
With more difficulty and frustration than expected but it works fine now. Things learned: 1. Order only 3 replacement pins. One comes with the shocks that you can't be sure you see in the picture. 2. A circuit board in a plastic box mounted to the floor, left rear, must be removed by two screws to be able to get pliers onto the head of the pin more easily. This helps installation too. 3. A 1/2" deep socket pushed onto the retaining tab of the pin stays there while you pull with pliers from the... Read more
The Idler Arm Assembly is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It is an essential component of the dryer's drum support system, responsible for maintaining the proper alignment and smooth rotation of the drum during operation. The idler arm assembly typically consists of an idler arm, pulley, and bearings, working together to support the weight of the drum and facilitate its rotational movement.
Symptoms of a bad idler arm assembly in a dryer include:
Causes of a bad idler arm assembly can include wear and tear over time, damage from foreign objects entering the drum, or issues with the bearings or pulley components. A faulty idler arm assembly can lead to improper drum alignment, increased friction, and potential damage to other parts of the dryer.
Main problem was worn bearings in the motor, which was replaced. Additional issues were worn pulley on tensioner and impeller slipping on motor shaft. Pulley was replaced and hose clamp was used to secure blower on shaft. Read more
