Dryer stopping during dry cycle.
8 of 14 people found this instruction helpful.
  • James from HARTSELLE, AL
  • Very Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Screw drivers, Socket set
First I pulled the dryer away from the wall and unplugged it. Next I removed the dryer vent hose and threw it away and replaced it with a more rigid metal vent hose. Next, I used a socket wrench to removed the screws holding on the back cover of the dryer. Once the back cover was off it was just a matter of using the socket wrench to removed the bolt holding the sensor in place. After the part was removed I made sure the replacement was orientated in the same way as the original part and then I unplugged the wires from the bad sensor and placed them in the same order on the new part and then I bolted the new sensor back in place. Since the new part has been installed the dryer is working flawlessly and is not turning off mid-cycle like it was. ***Oh, and an important reminder. When you have the back cover pulled off the dryer use a shop vacuum to suck out any dirt and lint in the back of the dryer and make sure you unbolt the metal chute that the dryer lint screen goes into and clean inside the area near the exhaust blower. This is a VERY IMPORTANT part of servicing your dryer and should be done every few months to help avoid the risk of a fire.****

took off fabric softener dispenser. used socket to remove agitator. Cleaned and then replaced the little plastic dog ears...works like brand new! It took 15 minutes or less.

Also repaired noisy dryer. replaced drum rollers, pulley and belt. The job took about an hour and was real simple. However..the dryer was still noisy. Fixed with a prybar to force drum to be tighter. It now sounds like brand new.

No leveling feet on dryer.
2 of 2 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Bobbie from BEND, OR
  • Very Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Wrench (Adjustable)
This could not have been easier. The hardest part was tipping the dryer over on its' side.
Instructions:
1. Tip dryer over onto a non-scratch surface. I used a tarp on the floor.
Insert leveling foot into the foot opening on the bottom of the dryer &
screw in with fingers until it is difficult to turn.
2. Use the adjustable wrench on the hexed foot (not the threads) to adjust to the desired level.
3. Tip dryer upright taking care not to exert pressure on the feet closest to floor. I used a folded-up tarp under the bottom edge of the dryer while lifting it to the upright position.
4. Use a level, back to front & side to side, to determine if feet need further adjustment.
5. Adjustments can be made with the dryer in the upright position, using the adjustable wrench on the hexed foot.

If you are using a pedestal under this dryer, do you need the leveling feet?
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi James, thank you for your question. Generally yes. Most of the time what you are supposed to do is screw in the feet as far as they can go so that they are flush with the washing machine. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Dryer cycles glow then ignites stay heating for 5 minutes heat shuts off 1-2 minutes later hear it glow starting but no ignition. This happened a couple times what could cause
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Glenn, thank you for contacting us. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest checking the gas valve solenoid, part number PS334310, to fix the issue. If the dryer does not heat or heats intermittently, the coils could be defective. If the igniter glows for a while and then shuts off without the gas igniting, it usually means one of these coils is bad. We hope this solves your problem!
