  • My Maytag 3000 series Dryer stoped heating up so I dug into the dryer and the heating element was bad. In this video I will show you how I replaced the heating element and cleaned the lint out of the dryer.

    Thank you so much for your great detailed directions. I was able to follow every step you said easily and clearly and fixed the dryer for less than $36. A friend told me they spent around $400 for the service call, inspection, parts, and labor. I appreciate this video so much. Great job!

    Wow!! Our Epic Maytag dryer stopped heating last Sunday. We've had it for 12 years and assumed it would be expensive to repair and might have to buy a new one. Came across your video on Monday and ordered the part from Amazon for $34.00; gotta say I didn't expect much for that price but when the part arrived, we installed it easy-peasy and were back in business by Thursday! Thank you so much for this video and for walking us through the "HOW" step by step. Much appreciated.

      There is a clip holding it in. You can either rock the assembly around and yank it out (what I JUST did) or maybe take the back panel off and see if you can get at it that way (which may require removing the top and maybe the control panel, not sure) . I yanked it out and a clip fell off. I ignored it, replaced the heating element, cleaned it all out and put it back together. It works. I made sure I jammed it back in real tight and screwed it back down.
