11065212610 Kenmore Dryer - Instructions

unplugged the dryer-- opened the back of dryer--tested the element--found there was a break in the element--ordered a new element--put everything back togethered and it worked. 10 screws held the back wall on--2 screws and 2 wires to disconnect the element---not very difficult!!

To replace the light bulb, I removed the screw and the cover, unscrewed the old bulb, replaced with the new bulb and replaced the cover, securing it with the small screw. It worked appropriately with normal use for a few days and then I noticed the light was not coming on when I opened the door.

I removed the cover and pulled out the bulb to find that the filaments inside are dangling and burned through. I need them replaced, please.

Simply checked the thermostats for conductivity and found that they were working properly. Removed the heating element to check for conductivity and discovered a broken coil. If I had the part ready to go the whole process from taking off the first screw to replacing the element to screwing on the last screw would have taken less than 15 minutes. Very simple repair that I almost paid a service technician an additional amount for something that a novice DYI'er could do.

My son did the repair and said it was so easy!

unplugged the electrical cord, took the back off the drier, unplugged wires from the bad heat unit. took couple of screws out that hed it in place, removed it , installed the new one plugged wires back , put the back on , plugged in electric cord. turned it on and that was all , works great. the part you guys sent was identical to the original . thanks.

Item not repaired as did not receive my order. I did call the company and they said they would credit my card. Neither they nor the company the wrong order came from seemed interested in my efforts to return the wrong order. I feel this incredibly wasteful,. I would not order from a company with this attitude

Used the trouble shooting tips provided as a guide and a multimeter to test and find the defective part. Testing indicated no continuity thru the high limit thermostat. I ordered the part and received it in 3 days. Had the repair done a full week before the repairman could even come to the house and saved well over $100 in repair costs and 2 weeks or longer of down time. Great website and service.

This was soo much easier then I thought!!! Make sure you unplug the dryer FIRST!! I removed the bolts that held the dryer back with the socket wrench. The removed the 2 screws that held the heating element in place. Disconnecting the cords was a little harder but will come off with the pliers. There is that piece of your old heating element that you need to remove to put on the new one that was hard to get off. its being held on by a metal lip and at first I couldnt figure out how to get it off, but then I just kept bending it (the metal lip) until I was able to get the piece off of it. Then just connect the wires onto the same points that your removed them from. Replace screws and back of the dryer and WaLa!!! You've just saved yourself the price of labor for an electrician.... Trust me if I can do this YOU can... My husband thought I was crazy.. I get shocked changing light bulbs but my dryer is drying a load of clothes as we speak!!!

Watched the videos available. Opened the top and saw tub jumping. Unplugged and removed front panel. Saw tub rollers were broken or melted. Removed tub watched more videos, and installed the felt belt I got from PartsSelect. Trouble removing the tub rollers, but finally got them off. The axles had a sticky residue which I removed with 220 grit sandpaper. I installed new rollers I had bought locally. Reassembled dryer. Worked quietly and smoothly, and it no longer shut itself down. Worked well for one day when it started.s loud noise with bumping. I found both rollers had lost their outer rim , and the tub was running on hard plastic and there was sticky residue back on the ankles. I stopped there.

First cut breaker off, removed wall plug, then removed back panel removed old element installed new one, had a great opportunity too clean lint from blower, and entire unit. Very good job. The video with instructions was awesome.

Watched a couple of you tube videos, seemed simple enough. Used multimeter to test thermostats, still good. Took off the heating element, it was visually broken. Called the 800 number, the guy who answered told me how to find the model number of the dryer. He then told me the part number and it matched what I had. Ordered, 2 days later arrived, just plugged it in and reinstalled the back covering, works great!

Pulled the old lint filter out and threw it in the trash. Slid the new filter in and it was all done. Doesn't take a genius to do this repair. My old dryer a sears/kenmore is over 40 years old and the lint filter fit perfect. (MF part number w10874409)

Ignor installation video. it is for a different model dryer. The part is not accessed from rear. It is accessed from the front panel. Disconnect power. Remove two screws below front panel with cross head screwdriver. Swing panel up until it releases. No need to disconnect wires just put front panel down beside the dryer. Thermostat located right in front on duct easy to identify since it has four leads. Remove wires with needle nose pliers. Remove thermostat with nut driver. Contacts are labeled but hard to read. Hold thermostat so the lead number 3 (the 3 will be upside down) is on the left. Connect blue wire. White wire to top. Purple wires to bottom and right. Reverse removal procedure and you are done.

Removed old screen. Placed in new screen.

It fit like a glove. Just put it right in.
