    Thank you. The instructions that came with the dryer made this simple process seem far more complicated than it needed to be. Your video was a great confirmation for me that it was that easy.

    You may need a new heating element. I have a bunch of videos on how to install it. It’s not easy, but it can be done.

    How would you install the strain relief on this dryer? I have the same dryer. Mine is not plugged into the power socket yet because the guy that installed the power cord didnt put the strain relief on. I didn't realize it until long after he left. I am too scared to use the dryer without the strain relief. Somebody please help!!!

    I cant find a video to help me. I'm losing hope. wall is four prung ands i found the cord that is four prong. but when io open the cover to the dryer i only see three wires. This is confusing me and i do not see any videos that helps me understand how to hook my dryers

    Does the ground strap go between the middle cord wire and the dryer neutral?

    @michellevernet1361 3 роки тому +1

    Thank you for showing this I have the exact same set up I am changing the four prong out for a three prong but I don’t have the gold metal grounding link. Lowe’s and Home Depot looked at me crazy when I asked them did they sell it. Where would I find that piece?

      I was wondering the same thing, cus the back of my unit looks similar.. an i cant get mine to fit in the socket perfectly. Im thinking about leaving it out especially after noticing he didn't add his on.

    Hi, I have the same dryer and I finally found a ground strap online but when I went to put it on it’s too short. Does it have to be screwed in with the green screw?

    • @TomLeeman
      @TomLeeman  3 роки тому

      You have to tie that ground in that’s that green screw that’s the ground that’s important if you’re not sure getting electrician
