David L Dover , PA April 14, 2014 Appliance: Whirlpool Electric Dryer WED7300XW0 No heat and the dryer sounded like a jet airplane I replaced the heating element and all of the thermal/high cutoff fuses and thermistors even though only the heating element tested "open" (there was a crack in the element) just to be safe. Also for the "jet airplane" sound the fan housing bearing was bad. I replaced that a well. Now it works like it should and is quiet again! However, I broke the fan blad removing it for the reinstall on the new fan housing but I ordered it at 6 at night and had it the next morning. Amazing and thank you!

Mariann M Michigan City , IN March 09, 2020 Appliance: Maytag Gas Dryer MGDB400VQ1 Our dryer started making a noise while it was running then discovered there was no heat We changed out the upper blower housing along with the blower wheel and pulley-blower. Decided to buy the two additional (blower wheel/pulley-blower) parts as it was indicated others also had purchased along with the blower housing. We watched the video which was similar to our dryer, but not exact. Putting the drum belt on with the idler pully was difficult because it was in the back and very hard to reach. All three parts were used and our dryer us back to normal. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 2+ hours Tools: Screwdrivers, Socket Set
David T Hanover Park , IL March 31, 2018 Appliance: Maytag Gas Dryer MGDB200VQ0 During operation my dryer was making a squealing whine from underneath the drum. The bearing in the upper blower housing had gone bad. Most of the machine had to be taken apart, but it was a relatively straightforward process after watching the informational how to on this site.
