Richard L Bonney Lake , WA October 25, 2014 Appliance: Model 110-96530100 Our longtime second hand kenmore dryer suddenly would not start by pushing the "start" switch Do to the limited room I had to work on this dryer, I shut off the circuit breaker on our power panel, removed the upper back access panel and the lower back panel to gain access to where all the components were mounted. With the reasonably priced parts, I had decided to replace all the pieces that would have anything to do with it staring and running at proper temperature settings. Easy repair and it now works as if it were a new unit. Read More... 5 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 1-2 hours Tools: Nut Drivers, Pliers
Debra M New Egypt , NJ February 11, 2017 Appliance: Model MODEL #LER4624BQ2 Over heating thermal fuse failure start switch failure My husband and I did the repair after some diagnostics with an ohm meter and found the timer had failed which was causing the dryer to run until the thermal fuse would fail.Doing further diagnostics the switch and the resistor had also failed.This dryer has served us very well for the last 20+ years and the thought of replacement was our first thought but we checked the parts prices from Appliance Parts Pros.com and figured we would give the repair a try.The dryer housing and tub still looks in great shape because it's been taken care of and replacing these parts has this dryer running like new again so our dryer repair and tune up of wheel replacement was the right move for us.
