DV42H5000EW Samsung Dryer - Instructions

I had to take the whole thing apart to replace the drum wrapper. I followed this very helpful YouTube video for the step-by-step instructions on disassembly.

Once the new drum was installed, I followed the steps in reverse to put everything back together.

Thank you
partselect.com for a much better heavy duty belt than the original. Way over priced, but well worth it. After watching the video & following it step-by-step, I now have a perfectly running dryer.

Cost of replacement $1,000.

I still had to take it apart there was a small sock stuck in the fan that blowes the lent out my wife left the lent filter out one time. Your video was a great help. I'm a mechanic and it was easy thanks Anthony Ratto [email protected]

Took off the back of the dryer and replaced the thermistor. A $7 part that would have been a couple hundred dollars if we had to call a repairman.

Followed video and YouTube most was easy.... put the hooking up the belt took time
