Maurya S Shelton , WA January 02, 2016 No heat in our amana dryer We got the heater core kit. Unplug, undo two screws and pulled old one out. Looking at the old one, put the new one together and then mounted it back in place. Turned on dryer but no heat so unplugged it, tapped on elements, plugged back in and it worked. Not to hard.

Douglas F Spotsylvania , VA November 05, 2016 Appliance: Model AMANA Had an old amana dryer that stopped heating Ordered heating element from APP. The web site told me that the most likely problem was the thermal fuse so I ordered that as well. Part arrived the next day. Took a few mins to figure out how to get to the in nerds of the dryer but using two sizes of nut drivers the job was done in about 30 mins. Parts were the correct ones and worked.

Ronald L Dracut , MA August 24, 2020 Appliance: Model NE6613W43821 30 yo speed queen dryer no heat. The temp sensor was fried but decided to replace the entire heating element too in case the impedance was low on the old one. The heating element comes with the sensor and thermostat but purchased another sensor only kit to fix the old one for backup. The old element measured fine compared with the new one. The Heating element kit shows it comes with jumper wires but it did not. The sensor kit did have the wires which I needed to replace. Also, the bulb is not the correct bulb for my speed queen dryer. My dryer uses a bayonet two contact bulb. I should have looked closer at the picture of the bulb before purchasing it. Its wonderful I can still buy parts for a 30-year-old dryer. Drive belt and tumbler rollers replaced a few years ago...can still get those too. And the delivery was very fast from appliance parts pros. Read More...
