LE2500 (P7762203W) Amana Dryer - Instructions

When I first heard it sqweeling I tokk off bottom cover and peeked around the turned it on and it seemed to be coming from a back roller,I sprayed a little wd-40 and it went away,for a day ! Then I found parts select on line and found the problem. The belt had worn into the roller almost to the shaft. I ordered the roller and belt and watched the very helpful video and it took about 15 minutes!parts $29. 00 Piece and quiet without calling service guy priceless !! Thanks steven l. I. Ny

Just like in the video. A very simple repair

Saved a lot of time by just using needle nose pliers to break the receiving end of latch off of the front of the dryer. No big deal if parts fall Inside, won't hurt anything. Then just pressed new part into front of dryer. No need to remove front dryer panel.latch piece on door was not broken so I left it alone. Took all of about 2 minutes.

The older latch was removed and the new one was inserted in to the same opening. It was great! We had the new latch within a couple of days after ordering the part. This worked out really well. Thanks!!

Used nut driver to remove front cover/door assembly. Used screwdriver to pry broken latch receiver out of front cover. Snapped new latch receiver in cover. Old striker/latch nub retained. Reattached cover/door assembly.

I took off the front panel removed the drum and took off the belt. I then installed new belt on drum then motor. Then installed the front panel.

The 5-cycle timer eventually failed on our Amana dryer and these were the symptoms leading up to the failure. First symptom was the timer would emit a squeak or squeal when the timer knob was pushed in. Then more recently the panel breaker kept tripping out. I shut the breaker off, pulled the plug, and dismantled the dryer panel to look at the timer. No noticeable fault or failure. Took a chance, ordered the replacement timer from PartSelect, and before installing wrote all the model and other numbers off both the old and new timers. They matched (Model 275 BEF) & (Kingston Model 275). Pulled the wire tabs one at a time off the old timer, and pushed onto same tab on new timer. Re-assembled the panel, plugged in the dryer, and turned the breaker on. Put the dryer through a few test drying cycles and it ran like new. The timer was a perfect fit and replacement, and all problems were eliminated. Runs like new!

Once I realized the drum was to be removed, the actual repair was not difficult. Because of the location of the pulley, it's best to tilt the dryer. Snap ring pliers are required to remove the retaining ring on pulley. I pulled the damaged pulley from the bearing. A small gear puller was needed to removed the frozen bearing. Lightly oil the new bearing. Installing the drum is a challenge because of the loose belt. I used paint tape to hold the belt on the drum. Download the service manual for good exploded parts views.

I took the dryer apart and used the video on the website that helped a lot on how to install the belt and then we put it back together and dryer works great.

The dryer latch had fallen into the dryer door itself and the door no longer stayed latched shut. I purchsed a replacement latch and simply popped it into the hole. No tools! I did leave the old latch to rattle around inside the door whenever it opens though.

Pulled off front of dryer because it made loud noise, lifted clothing drum removed cover for fan and order from model number on fan and replaced. 30 min with help from my son.

I entered the model number and make of the dryer, selected the door latch part and ordered. My order had a link to a video that explained installation. It was pretty easy, and I am a girl :)

I ordered the belt, which arrived really fast! Took dryer apart, removed old belt, replaced with new belt. The hardest part was remembering how to put the dryer back together! I think next time I will video the taking apart process so I can see how it goes back! This was the 2nd belt in about 18 years, the dryer works fine, and it sure is cheaper than a whole new dryer! Thanks for saving me money again! Really helps in these hard economic times!

Replace with new latch.

Pulled out the broken part than easily snapped the new part into place..
