ADE20L2H Admiral Dryer - Instructions

t

Contrary to instructions that I found on the web, the element is not accessed through the back. Pop the top of the dryer up and the element is visible in the top of the back . Pretty easy job.

I had to replace the whole motor, Idler spring and idler Pulley Wheel. It went well but I wish I could have replaced just the berring and not the whole motor.

After I unplugged the unit, I used a flat screwdriver to pop the top open at the front, then tipped it back on the hinge. I then used a multi-meter to test resistance through any switch or safety device I could find. The thermal fuse was the hardest one to get to and was the only one that showed open, having no resistance. I had to remove the screw that holds the heating element in place and carefully slide the element out of the way. The fuse is held in place by a metal strip or retainer and it has to be lifted up and right as you remove it. Unplug the wires from the old fuse and put in the new one. Then reverse the order of dis-assembly, plug it in and away you go, as long as that is the only issue, which mine was.

Disassembled the dryer- pretty simple process, replaced the heating element and high limit switch (which was included with the heating element), put it back together.

Unplugged dryer from electrical outlet, lifted up top of dryer, removed overheating sensor and dryer element with 1/4"socket being very careful not to drop screws into dryer, replaced dryer element and heat sensor, closed top lid of dryer, plugged back into outlet and tested for proper operation.

1st replaced the broken drum belt, then the heating element failed, ordered a replacement, arrived over night thank you very much. Installed new heating element, 5 minutes later the motor failed. Bought a new dryer, ate the heater element as it is now used.

the hardest part of fixing it was getting the belt off the roller guide. the actual part was easy to fix

Replaced thermal fuse actually fixed the problem, but also replaced the heating element since you have to remove it to get to the fuse. Just remove the top and parts are accessed in the rear 3 screws.

replaced belt first didnt fix the noise so i replaced rear drum support roller kit and that fixed the noise this was a cheap fix cost me about 70.00 dollars verses a new dryer thank you your website was a big help

watched available video on site removed 4 screws all at top of washer. had to replace heater element, thermostat and thermal fuse. very easy.

Remove and replace thermal fuse.

I drilled two holers in the side of the cabinet 1 inch apart. I put them at the same height as the tensioner spring. I put the string through 1 hole and around the tensioner. I pulled the string through the other hole and had my son hold the tensioner back while I reached in and lined up the belt on the tensioner while my son let out the string slowly.
