11066992500 Kenmore Dryer - Instructions

Very easy replacing these 2 parts. Simply unscrew the 2 screws under the lint trap on top and pry open the front top of the dryer (it'll open like a hood on a car). Then just unscrew the 2 screw holding the switch on by opening the dryer door and unscrewing on the switch- unplug the old switch. Installation reverse of removal! For the light, just 1 screw takes the pate off and screw the light in like a night light bulb-- EASY!

I changed the thermal fuse following instructions from the video on the site . Very easy repair, anyone can do it.

Just took the old one out and slipped the new one in! That's it! That easy. Thank you!

Just like the video showed, amazingly simple.

It was all put together... I just switched them!

Determine the problem, Lift top of machine, disconnect wires to door sw. Bypass the sw, and short the circuit, with piece of wire, push start, the machine worked..problem solved. Replace sw by removing 2screws ,attach wire connectors. Done job.

Remove the two screws at the bottom panel. Locate the heat element on the right side. Remove the heat shield for easy removal of the element. One screw holds the element in. Pull the two wires and pull out the heat element. Install the new one in reverse. Test before you close up. This fixed the problem so I did not install the thermal fuse. Although that looks pretty easy.

I watched you repair video and did as instructed. I used putty knife to pry open clips holding top down. Then a philips head screw driver to unscrew old switch and insrall new switch. Also putty knife helped to pry old wire harness apart.

watched the video on part select.com was a very easy job whenever you had someone showing you what needed to be done,thanks for the help and great customer service.

Just follow the video by Parts Select., The repair is really easy.

Power off by removing plug from wall outlet. Remove two Phillips screws under lint screen filter door. (careful you don't drop them down the filter housing) Pry upper lid loose at both front corners and elevate and retain the lid vertically. Separate old 3 wire switch connector splice halves at upper right housing corner. Remove two Phillips screws at upper right corner of outer front doorway which hold switch. Install new switch with those two screws. Re-connect the connector splice halves; they are keyed for one direction. Close down lid. Plug in power cord.

Per video demonstration offered in web. Very simple. Thanks for your help.

Video showed 3 ways to remove the top section to access the switch. None of which worked on my unit. Instead there were 4 screws on the rear section of the control panel that had to be removed and then lift it past the top of unit to slide forward to remove top to access the switch after that all was the same as video.

I googled the main reasons why a dryer wont start. Ordered the suggested parts and went through them one by one. Replaced thermal fuse as it was said this was a main reason it wont turn on. Kept the new fuse in as I believe it was the original. Then I went to the door switch when I compared them I knew I had found the cause. I replace the door switch then plugged it back in and success. I took it a step a time. .

Watched the tutorial online. Took the back off- replaced the fuse. Put the back on . It was extremely easy !!
