I never knew at the age of 28, I would need something so greatly and it turned out just to be a UA-cam video on how to replace a dryer motor. Thanks.
I cannot thank you enough. I was able to fix my dryer for about $80 instead of paying hundreds for a tech.
If you're buying another motor definitely buy a fan wheel as well as a precaution. Had to destroy my blower wheel just to get the motor out. Really appreciate this video!! Still helping people out after 10 years!!
Glad we could help out! We'll keep them coming
"Give it a couple wacks" is usually not how it goes... especially if the dryer is really old. I have beat the hell out of a pipe wrench and an adjustable on there and have still had no luck with it budging and sometimes you even have to take the back of the dryer apart in break the blower wheel into pieces to even get the motor out
I had to do this as well.
@@jasondahl7702 Me too. Waiting on blower wheel.
Thank you! It's running good as new!
You're welcome! Glad we could help you with your repair.
This video helped me repair my Kenmore 90 series. The motor stopped while working and had to replace it
Glad we could help!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Hi, handy vid thank you! Hoping a bad drive motor is my problem, and I'll be using this vid to solve it. I got an Amana NGD4500VQ2, it stopped working today and now it hums but won't tumble. Although it sounds like it does recognize the various settings, when turning the setting knob. But another strange thing is that even w/o hitting the start button, it's hums when put on a setting. Also when this first happened, there was a burned smell coming from the machine. I followed your other vid (on appliancepartspros) on getting to the belt, think it was a broken belt. Taking the top and front off, I see the belt is intact. Turning the drum by hand, I hear the gas fire up and it starts blowing heat, but again it won't turn. Does that sound like a bad drive motor?
Unfortunately this video does't apply to motor replacement with motor using the old switch plate system. That wire arrangement needs to be clipped directly to the motor as there is no wire plug in the dryer to connect with.
Thanks for that tip. We do offer free technical advice and diagnosis, so if anyone needs additional help with the repair outside of what's demonstrated in the videos, you can give us a call at 1-877-477-7278 or you can chat us at our website: www.appliancepartspros.com/.
I am pressing down on the rear clip like shown at 3:40 and I can't seem to get it loose. Instead, the screwdriver slips off the curve of the clip and the metal is still latched on. Any tips? I've tried just pushing down, as well as down and out, and both ways, my screwdriver slips out, or stopped (can't go any further down) before the metal is unclipped.
What is the model number of your appliance?
Matt great video well done...love the hair bro...
Thanks!
I have a older dryer l wish you guys would show how to wire the blue wire transfer
I had to dig to find this since I am replacing an older motor with a used motor no directions. You do need 2- 1/8" terminal ends that come with the motor kit. They made it easier with the newer dryers having a wiring harness that was not on the older style motors. Hope this helps.
@@joesuriani371 thanks for your input, did you discard the blue jumper wire that came with the replacement?
Whirlpool does not rebuild these motors. If you found someone who can rebuild it then don't cut the shaft, if you are going to buy a new motor it doesn't matter. If the blower is stuck on the motor shaft you will probably destroy it getting it off so a new blower will have to be purchased.
this is exactly what happened to mine, i watched the video for removing the motor(bought replacement from APP) now I either have to replace the whole dryer or figure out how to get the blower wheel separated from the motor and try to get it all back together. I new it was reverse thread but the plastic square just crumbled when I put the wrench to it. (sure it was heat over time that caused it to be brittle?) Model #LGR8858EQ0 maintained and used for over 20 years...am I out of luck here?
ok so after inspecting the rear of the dryer some more I removed the cover and found the wheel and I am really glad I got to that part because the lint buildup was not good. I am going to have to cut the motor-shaft and remove the wheel and replace it along with the new motor but I should have a better working dryer for way less than a replacement unit that I would nothing about for previous service. I think I'm on the right track now. Thanks for this post it got me past a really crappy day after the above.
I have an Admiral model ADE7000AYW where the drum was not rotating. I found that the motor pulley was just about free spinning on the motor shaft as well as being able to slide back and forth about an 1/8 of an inch along the shaft, but not slip off. The motor itself seems to be in good working order. The motor pulley is a one piece cast metal part that is a combination of the metal pulley and plastic cup shaped part on the motor in your video. Is there a way to just re-attach this pulley or get a matching replacement pulley? The replacement motor you list for this model does not come with a pulley and the pulley you sell for it does not have the cup shape extension. Without yet taking the motor out of the dryer, the only marking I can see on it is DA5F10E printed in large letters on the motor core.
2nd time im using the video and it is ez pez. The whole repair about 1hr 15 min
jan s Glad the video helped you get the dryer motor changed!
My dryer starts and heats OK but starts to sound labored after a minute. If i pull the lint screen out a half inch allowing get air to come in from the top the laboring sound reduces. I have completely cleaned the lint screen and removed and cleaned the metal lint tube. I have opened the front of the dryer and pulled the drum out and vacuumed all the lint from inside the front and vacuumed off the motor. That all helped some but the dryer still sounds labored and sounds like it will fail in the near future. Any thoughts?
You need to check everything that might put drag on the motor. Gummed up idler pulley, torn or damaged front and rear felts, drum support rollers, something in the blower housing, belt is not slipping, venting is not clogged etc.
Having trouble getting the back mounting clip back on the motor after installation. Heavy downward pressure with screwdriver only seems to bend the bracket. Any suggestions??
There is usually a locking tab on the motor mounting ring make sure it is lined up in the motor mounting bracket or the clip may not fit properly!
If you are replacing the motor then you don't have to use a hacksaw to cut the shaft, just cut the plastid off it the motor is going to be returned for rebuilding, otherwise just throw it away because you have to get a new wheel as well. Right?
Yep Truth Finder you are correct, a little more work but you will be able to clean the screen vent shoot that goes to the blower-wheel section and ultimately out the vent tube. sawzall will work better than a hacksaw-fyi. Good Luck!
If we replaced the motor and the dryer still wont start what else could it be? The starter button?
Steve Hahn Have you checked the door switch for continuity? You can also go to our repair forum and enter the appliance model number along with the problem and the techs can help you trouble shoot the problem.
can someone tell me what each wire is for? I'm building something out of the motor
+anhelio lopez You would have to look at the wiring diagram for the dryer to see what each wire is for.
oh thanks you guys are cool
I have an older dryer and this is the motor that replaces it, but it refuses to fir into the metal bracket. Really ticking me off. Might grab a hammer soon.
Sometimes there are tabs that have to be lined up on the rubber mounting rings to let the motor fit.
The reason I looked for this video was to see how to adapt the wiring from an old motor for the new motor, and you totally skipped that part. The instruction are terrible.
We did not have the older style motor to demonstrate. Without knowing what you have, I would suggest posting the problem along with the appliance model number on our repair forum and the techs can help you get it wired. forum.appliancepartspros.com/
your video is great. it clearly states how to replace not rewire. , this guy has to learn to read.
And you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Worse thing is you think you do.
Chris Badger I agree the motor comes with crap instructions that are blurry and unreadable... A 5 year old can unplug and replug like this.... I don't want to burn the motor up.... The instructions suck.... You say if you have the old style use these but you could just add that to the video.... I buy a replacement I expect it to fit properly.... Plug and play.... If I have to change something you should give decent instructions.... This video is useless
Chris Badger did you find a decent answer to the wiring....
You did not enplane the wiring part AT ALL! The instructions are crap! NO HELP!
How do you measure the drive shafts I cant find any motor that is exact
What is your model number?
@@appliancepartspros S58NXNBG-7004
Part number - 8066206
We apologize but that model number doesn't appear to be the correct number. Is that suppose to be the model number of your appliance?
@@appliancepartspros no this is the model number of the motor. And the part number.
