KEYS677EQ2 KitchenAid Dryer - Instructions

Followed the instructions provided by Parts Select and it was very easy and quick to fix !! Thanks Part Select for everything!!

At first I thought it was the ignitor, so I replaced it. No luck there. Next I went to the Part Select web site...that showed that the Thermal Fuse was the cause of this symptom 45% of the time. I installed the fuse and now my dryer is working!

The free video is what did it. I just worked the tool lol.

I know now that I did not have to get in the back of the machine. Only lift top remove two screws for the front and lift off.The most diffcult was determing how the idler and belt went in but if you hold it in position it becomes to you. Thanks for all your help you run a good ship.

check with multi-meter and found the low thermostat was out.Ordered part and with the shipment I received a low and high thermostat. installed both easily. Plugged dryer into AC and tested. Absolutely perfect. Removed AC power and hooked vent hose and attached back dryer cover, plugged back in AC and I'm back in business.

Pull out the old one and inserted the new one.

After researching and reading other reviews on Partselect.com, I watched the videos on doing the repairs. I purchased the parts from partselect. I happy to receive them before the expected delivery date. Before the part arrived, I followed the recommendation on the videos and vacuumed out all the accumulation of lint. When the parts arrived, I followed the instructions on the videos. I replaced the parts. I put the cover back on and plugged in my dryer. It works great! I estimate a savings of approximately $3-400.00. I also felt good that I was able to do it on my own. I am definitely impressed with Partselect! Thank you so much!

removed rear cover, removed element, checked continuity and found element burned in two. went on line and found exact replacement then ordered and installed. unit worked like new. service was great, paid extra for guaranteed deliver in three days and installed.

Did the troubleshooting recommended on the PartSelect website and determined the parts necessary. I ordered them via UPS and which acn take up to 3 days, but they arrived the next day. Parts were put in and worked great. I was very pleased that PartSelect under promised and over delivered.

I unplugged the dryer then loosened the screws on the top and inside front, took the front off, I didn't need to unplugged the socket wiring attached to the door. Removed the drum (it came right off) wrapped the new belt around the drum, fed the belt through the tension flange and looped it over the pulley. Then rotated the drum a few times by hand to line everything up then put everything back together. It works fine now.

Went on the website to diagnose the problem and ordered the two most likely components for the recommended "fix". Watched the video that was associated with the tracking information that was emailed to me when the parts shipped. Walks you right through the entire process. My daughters could do this. I call myself the "Maytag Repairman" these days and the wife was quite impressed!!! Of course I didn't clue her in to all the help I received from you guys...made her think I was a GENIUS!!! ;)

After finding the PartSelect website I entered the model number of the dryer and clicked on the link that was part of the trouble shooting feature that took me to a list of possible failed parts showing the percentile figures for how often each part was the culprit. The highest percentage replacement part was the heating element. I watched the video, removed the heating element and confirmed it was at fault. Broken coil wire. Ordered and replaced part. Was a little confused by reconnecting thermostat but watched video on that specific part replacement and successfully repaired dryer.

Since I was going to take the back off, I went ahead and replaced the thermal fuse, both thermostats, and the heater coil. I followed Steve's instructions and had all 4 parts installed in 30 minutes! It was so simple, I really have nothing helpful to add except to watch the VIDEOS. I would like to thank PartSelect for making this repair so easy for me. The Instant Repairman feature helped me find parts quickly! The videos, well, a big THANK YOU to Steve for the terrific repair demonstrations!!! Also, reading others reviews was very helpful. I am already telling others about this site, and I will be back (hopefully not too soon).

Disconnect power! Remove vent hose. Removed back panel. Disconnect plugs from high temp sensor (2nd hardest part) - remember which one goes where. Remove old heating unit held in with hex-head screws. Remove high temp sensor from heating unit (hardest part). Reinstall High-temp sensor into NEW heating element. Install new heating element assembly into dryer (snug fit). Reconnect electrical connections. Reconnect exhaust. Test to ensure functions properly - success! Uninstall exhaust & install back panel. Install exhaust vent. While it was open, I vacuumed it out, as well as the exhaust vent.
