KEYS677EZ0 KitchenAid Dryer - Instructions

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.

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.

Watched the repair video on part-select. Pulled the top of the dryer up after removing the lint trap screws.removed screws at top, inside both sides and then lifted front off. Slipped belt over drum and ran through tensioner and around motor shaft. Put dryer back together in reverse order. Simple.

Removed the old fuse and replaced with the new fuse. Of course, I had to remove the back of the dryer but very easy and the cost was less than $20.00. Definitely worth it because we did not have the money for a new dryer. PartSelect.com is awesome!

First of all, your operator was patient and courtious and extremely knowlegable. They knew right away what part was required. I watched a video on youtube describing the job. When the part arrived, on time, I just did what the video told me to do and in under 30 minutes the jobwas done and the dryer works perfectly. I'll be back for sure

When the part came in my husband was not home and I figured I could put this part on myself. I took the part downstairs, used the nut driver to remove one screw, took the two wires off the old therma fuse, put the wires on the new therma fuse, and screwed the new therma fuse onto the back of the dryer. It really couldn't have been any easier.

Remove the back panel, then remove the housing around the blower, just slide the housing of to the side, you don't have to take it completly of the machine. Remove the top, and remove the front until you can get to the blower motor. Cut the blower wheel plastic down to the metal nut with a fine blade in a recipricating saw, used a bi-directional broken stud remover socket on the nut that was at the center of the blower wheel and large slip joint plyer on the other end of the shaft. Replace the wheel and put back together. It took about as much time to gather up the tools as it did to fix it.,

took of the back , took out the drying coil ,put the other in , but back on . now it works saved alot of money. love it. Thank you parts select.

This has happened several times to my KitchenAid dryer. It cost more than $100 to bring someone in to repair. Fortunately, I saved my bills and saw the part "thermal fuse" listed. I researched that and found your website. I couldn't believe how easy it was to fix. The part cost less than $15 and the diagrams you provided were a big help. I was about to purchase a new dryer, easily $500. Your site saved me a bunch of money. How I fixed? Unscrewed the back panel of the dryer. Found a part that resembled the part you sent me. Slipped it out. Put the new one in...that is it. I also figured that one reason the part keeps burning out is because my duct has to bend to get to the outside vent. The obstruction probably causes the dryer to overheat more often than not. I pulled the dryer 6 inches more away from the wall to see if that helps. My fuse was going out about every 2 years.

Was working fine one load and not the next. I remembered we had used this site for our dishwasher so gave it a try. Went with most common problem first. Ordered Sun rec'd Tues. Took longer to vacuum the back of dryer then it did to replace the fuse. Cost less than 30 bucks including shipping. Video was cool too.
