Easy home dryer repair
Motor drive pulley and belt was gone on my dryer. I researched on how to remove and replace and performed the repair. All parts fit great and now I have my dryer back in order.

Great part worked well
This took about 2 minutes to install, funny, I would not have needed it if the video on how to install the fan, hadn’t told me to put a wrench on this nut instead of the actual shaft

Drum not turning; accompanied by loud "screeching" sound.
Followed instructional video provided for this type of repair after diagnosing problem via of 'troubleshooting' on PartsSelect site. Simple, safe, and relatively easy (minimal mechanical knowledge helpful). Second time using PartSelect; washing machine repair ~ 6 mo. previous. PartSelect was spot-on with that repair as well, saving hundreds of dollars.....my go-to site for appliance repairs and pats....make it yours as well and you will NOT be disappointed! Fast, prompt shipping.
Half of my pulley was broken off so there were no wrench flats to take it off. I was able to remove it using Channel Locks and the 7/16 wrench shown in the video.
Hint: Use a one gallon ice cream bucket to hold up the drum while connecting the belt. It makes it much easier and gives you more clearance.

Needed to repair and replace dryer motor pulley and pully
this was very was very easy. But I deviated from the You Tube instructions. One to release the motor pulley. I needed to use 2 adjustable wrenches for a longer lever. I needed to use a hammer to help release pulley. Second to remove the dryer cable I needed to use a small screw driver to aid in the release. ---- the part from the company was a perfect fit.

Dryer drum would not turn
Ordered $245 worth of parts for four possible fixes. None of the four fixes worked. Used an appliance repair person to do more troubleshooting. Fourteen days later and after spending an additional $380 ($625 total), a new control panel was installed. That solved the problem.

Hello Manuel, Thank you for your inquiry. It is not usually recommended as it protects the shaft. You can purchase it with the pulley, part# WP8066184. Hope this helps!

I cant get the old one off, what do i do?
Hi Lesley, Thank you for the question. If the pulley is stuck and can not be unscrewed, you can try some WD-40 or similar products. If the pulley is not able to be removed, you may need to replace the motor. Hope this helps!

Que motor pelea es compatible con este modelo admirar. Ya que enrosca para la izquierda e comprado y ni me sirven ya que enrosca para la derecha. Por favor cual seria compatible. Gracias.
For model number Admiral. MOD NO ADE7005AYW
Hola William, gracias por tu consulta. Mostramos el motor de esta secadora como parte # PS11739459. Espero que esto ayude.
I just replaced the idler wheel and started the dryer and burning plastic smell. I opened the dyer up again and noticed there is a plastic thing behind the motor pulley. What is the number for that part? Why would it melt?
For model number LEQ9558KQ1
Hi Adrienne, Thank you for your question. Unfortunately I could not say as to why this part melted. The only thing that I could think of would be that the belt was installed incorrectly and so it slipped and with friction melted that plastic piece. That plastic part is only available with the motor. So to replace it, you would have to replace your motor. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
