Exactly the right video for my current problem. After the new fan came in the mail, I installed it in 18 minutes and the dryer was working perfectly again.. Big thanks!
Thanks for showing what to do. Was told by engineer after buying this that condensing dryers are no good for lots of loads, one after another, due to over heating. I forgot this. Fast forward 5 years and lots of loads and not cleaning the sponge filter often enough. The fan warped and started to make vibrating noise. Then all hell broke loose. It sent broken fins into back of drum where they made lots of small pieces and lots of noise. Thanks to this video and comments it was an easy fix and lesson learnt on importance of regular cleaning the sponge filter in future. I know why you wear gloves now. That plastic is sharper than expected and you don’t realise it’s cutting the skin until later. Lol
Our Samsung heat pump dryer made an awful noise a couple of days ago and then jammed. Your video was exactly what I needed to see - the fan impeller was intact, but something (debris, cling film, the housing? Who knows) had melted onto the innermost flange of the impeller, and set like concrete. A few minutes with a Stanley knife and some sandpaper and we're back in business. We also know what to do next time!
My fan jammed against the plastic sorrounding it, not the cover but the main piece. I think this is what's causing these fans to fail. Fix: Remove top panel ~2 screws, Remove control panel ~5 screws, ~cables Remove lint filter Remove the access pannel to the heat exchanger by carefully pulling the 2 hinge pieces out of place Remove the heat exchanger access block Remove the front cover ~6 screws Remove the right hand side panel (closest to the on/off button) - be sure to undo the twist clips that hold the wiring loom to the top of the side panel before removing it. The panel slides to the front before it will come out Put shims under the motor to support its weight. There's only one mount for the motor, it's plastic and on one end. So the whole weight of the motor is hanging off of it and, across the length of the shaft ending with the fan, it only needs to bow a little for the fan to hit the plastic around it. Given heat and time, I think this will happen to all of the dryers like this.
Hi, thanks for posting this video, helped me out, some how we got one of the kids small socks in the chamber with the fan so following the video sorted. Thanks again.
Thanks for the video. It helped me out. About the analysis of the problem; I noticed that the fan is too close to the cover. After some time it will rub against the cover, damaging the fan blades. Plastic parts get melted between fan and case, sticking to bith the cover and fan. So, I will order a new fan, but I am thinking of cutting away the circle shape of the cover an mount it at the back side, to gain some mm. Besides this I noticed cloth dust between the tumbler and the metal case, a thick layer all around the opening of the case. That will have to go.
Thanks so much for posting this video. Ours had the same issue just before Christmas and after seeing your video we got it up and running again in no time. Really helpful.
Bedankt. En een paar vragen. Voordat ik hem uit elkaar zou halen heb ik uw advies eerst gevolgd, Inderdaad, de ventilator wordt na jaren door hete lucht gepijnigd te zijn brooze en breekt op diverse plaatsen, en loopt dan aan in het huis. Vraag 1: ik voel ook enige speling op de as. Vraag 2 wat zijn de andere onderdelen die na 6 jaar vernieuwd moeten worden. Bv de riem, etc etc.
Hello I have a samsung heat pump dryer that keeps totally switching off after about 1 min or sometimes 5 mins. Vary rare will it do a full cycle. Before I pay silly money to get it fixed I wondered if you could point me in the right direction of what it could be for me to fix myself please. Sometimes it will switch on straight after its turned off but most times I have to switch off at the mains for it to turn back on. Thank you
Hi, My Fan was badly broken but I'm not sure if the belt has also come off the motor which caused this to drop/ hit the back bit and break. Have taken the top off machine and belt in loose. How do I get to the motor to try get belt back on???
Please answer me🙏🏻 Samsung dryer heat pump DV90M500QX / same in this video where is the capacitor ? I didn't find, my dryer is opened but can't find the capacitor please answer me
This repair won't last long, you need to put a jubilee clip around the motor bearing flange, it is failing and causing the fan to vibrate and contact the housing. I took the motor out on mine and put and new rubber bush around the bearing that I made.
Why did the fan break up ? In ours there is crack when the fan bearing runs so the fan starts to rub on the housing if it continues to rub and crack /drop the things gonna be scrap any ideas? Cheers
Hi, in 90% cases the reason is a dirty sponge filter. There are 2 filters: one is in the tumbler dryer door when you open it, another is sponge filter on the left bottom of your machine. Please make sure they are clean. The reason why your fan break up is because of over heat. The best way to sort it out is to buy a new fan. There is an example: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Samsung-Tumble-Dryer-motor-impeller-fan-DV70-DV80-DV90/333366786640? Thanks
Yes, I had the same issue, my Samsung fan was just a flat disc when I took it off, with very rough edges! But I tried to see why it had damaged the surrounding as well, and seems the arm holding the fan also has movement in it. But unsure fromThis point how to get that part changed
We had a 3 warranty repairs on our fan. The last time the technician was here he replaced the back part of the dryer as well. Apparently it was a clearance issue with the fan hitting the back part.

No talk, just all work. Love it. Did anyone learn some sign language?

Fix:
Remove top panel ~2 screws,
Remove control panel ~5 screws, ~cables
Remove lint filter
Remove the access pannel to the heat exchanger by carefully pulling the 2 hinge pieces out of place
Remove the heat exchanger access block
Remove the front cover ~6 screws
Remove the right hand side panel (closest to the on/off button) - be sure to undo the twist clips that hold the wiring loom to the top of the side panel before removing it. The panel slides to the front before it will come out
Put shims under the motor to support its weight. There's only one mount for the motor, it's plastic and on one end.

This really helped me too. Thanks!
Exact same problem - plastic motor axle mount sagging causing fan to grind against housing. Need to re-level motor mount before destroying a new fan.
same - sagging motor causing drum to jam. I also shimmed the motor at the fan end to keep it centered.

Sounds exactly like mine.. the fan looked just as fucked too- just waiting 48hrs for the new part… thanks- found your guide very helpful!

Thank you!! Mine just started that rattly noise so we ll check this out first.

My fan was grinding at the housing and got stuck at some point. Thank you for the grat video! Keep it coming!
Do you have any frequent services you perform to this type dryers?
Did it make a rattling noise?
@@williamsolis3970 Yes it was!
Can't get that blower wheel off! Made it look so simple! Lol.
Thanks, my backplate is also warn but can't find replacement for that. Will try just the fan first and check the sponge filters as you suggest.
Thnx this was the video i needed👌🏻💪🏻
You are the best!! I had the same issue.
What about the broken parts from the fan? Do you have any video how to remove those broken parts?
Thanks for this post!! Any idea what the plastic surround is called for the fan as its been chewed up by the fan??
Thanks for the help
great video thanks
Yes, I had the same issue. But the plastic fan parts ended up some where in the sleeve bearing and that was making the ticking noise.
