Mary S Porter , TX February 15, 2019 Appliance: Magic Chef Electric Dryer YE224LVC Noisy bumping sound. Blower wheel and clamp replacement. Initially, we replaced both the belt and drum roller wheels but that did not stop the noise. By reviewing videos on YouTube and AppliancePartsPros, we suspected that the blower wheel could be problematic, even though with front panel of dryer off, we did not see any visual clues to support that theory. Purchased the replacement clamp as well, just for good measure (and it was inexpensive). Note: we did call AppliancePartsPros with our model AND serial numbers before placing order, because we noticed there were 2 diameters available for the shaft and we did not want to risk purchasing the wrong part. Toughest parts to the job are (a) reseating the drum on the drum rollers, and (b) maneuvering the belt in place around the pulley, as you have to do this by touch, since you cannot see it. We are delighted with the results. Read More... 2 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 1-2 hours Tools: Nut Drivers, Pliers, Screwdrivers, Socket Set

Joseph G Prole , IA April 25, 2017 Appliance: Magic Chef Electric Dryer YE225LVC It all started with a "thump thump" sound at first start up and progressed into a loud rattling noise. Upon disassembly, I found that the center hub of the blower fan had broken off, decided to pull the drum out and check the rear rollers and found that they had flat spots on them. So I ordered new rollers, Blower fan, front Teflon and felt kit's and a new belt (Figured I might as well since I have it apart) Ordered Friday Morning and received Saturday afternoon. Super fast shipping and they were the right parts. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 1-2 hours Tools: Nut Drivers, Screwdrivers, Socket Set
Karl K N. Little Rock , AR January 08, 2024 Appliance: Maytag Electric Dryer PYE2000AYW Loud noises even when empty.. Twenty-year- old Maytag dryer started making a loud banging noise even when empty. Took off the front and noticed several blades on the fan were broken and some were missing. Pulled up the schematic diagram on AppliancePartsPros.com, ordered a replacement and installed it four days later. The dryer works like new and the wife is happy. Read More...
