WATER LEAKING FROM DRYER
For model number EFMG517SIW0
Hello Beverly, thank you for your inquiry. According to our research, blocked ventilation is often the reason why a dryer is leaking water. The dryer works by heating air and distributing it around the drum to dry the clothes. If the dryer is unable to vent the warm air, it condenses and causes water to collect in the dryer. We would recommend cleaning the exhaust vents and if still the issue exists, you may need to check the hose kit, part number PS11731919, to solve the problem. Glad to be of assistance!
Dryer shuts off before clothes are dry, but does not do it all the time. It doesn’t matter if you use time dry or auto dry. It has done this from new, the mother board was replaced and we ran a separate electric line and all this was done from new. It dries the clothes okay but you may need to restart the dryer, which is upsetting because our dryer is in the basement so you think they’re done and they are not.

Hello Linda, thank you for reaching out. Make sure your dryer vent and lint filter are clean. If both are fine, we would recommend checking the motor, part number PS16620747. Good luck with the repair!
The top of the dryer was easily removed by prying the front up with a screwdriver then tipping it back and off of the mounting brackets. Then the front of the dryer was removed by unscrewing a single screw on each side that held the front to the side panels then pulling the front away from the dryer. Once the front was off, the coils were easily accessible on the bottom left side. A metal bracket held the coils on and was somewhat tough to get the two screws removed on it as they were stuck, but once they were removed the coils easily came out and I was able to replace them in minutes. The whole job took 15-20 minutes and I now have a dryer that heats through the entire drying cycle.
1. Pry Dryer top up and off the clips. (Front of Dryer) 2. Remove 2 phillips screws on the inside of front panel. 3. Lift front panel up and set off to the side 4. Removed 2 phillips screws with short handled phillips driver that hold the gas valve coil bracket in place. 5. Unplugged and removed both coils, installed new coils and bracket. Re installed front panel, screws and top.
When I described the noise to a YouTube appliance diagnostician, I was directed to check the felt seals front and back of the rotating drum for wear, tears, or foreign objects. As it happens the felt seals looked find and there were foreign objects so, not wanting to disassemble and reassemble the dryer more than I had, I ended up replacing all the replaceable moving parts that I considered possible culprits: The idler tension spring, the idler tension bracket (which includes a nylon pulley wheel), the drum belt, the five rubber-tipped bearings that support the drum and keep it in place, and the foam seal on the blower housing which seemed a little brittle and old, as well as high-temperature adhesive for the latter. The instructional videos here and on YouTube were extremely helpful (I doubt that I would have attempted this job at all, had I not watched these ahead of time). The most time-consuming aspect was waiting for the arrival of the parts as I didn't order them all at the same time or all from the same place (I ordered from whomever could ship me a given part the fastest. Disassembly took less than an hour. Re-assembly with the new parts in place took about the same but was a little more awkward because this appliance sits in a very narrow closet and it's difficult to ensure that the 4" flexible duct stays in place when sliding the appliance back into the closet. No regrets. Now I know the basics if this dryer needs attention in future and I also know all the parts that I can eliminate as suspects in any future maintenance (the parts that I replaced)
