MDE13PDBEW Maytag Dryer - Instructions

I watched the vidio but after begining the repair,I realized that the drum roller could be replaced without removing the tumbling drum. This made the replacement go even faster & easier. Great website. Great vidio. I'll be back,given the age of this dryer.

I would like to say first of all that I was amaized and pleased at how simple the ordering of this part was and while looking at the parts diagram on you website I noticed the door swing was optional and could be easily changed and the dryer came from the factory with a latch installed on both sides of the door. In our laundry room the dryer sits to the left of the washer and the door to the dryer opened to the right which has always been a slight inconvenience. . . So instead of changing out the broken part, I took the door and hinge off with my cordless screwdriver (6-8 screws) and turned it around and remounted it on the opposite side. . . Simple! I never took the new part out of the ups envelope. Now I have a spare so I taped the new part in the envelope to the back of the dryer in case I ever need it and now we have more convenience with the door swinging the correct way. Sweet deal! Took less than an hour. Thank you for making this task simple. Chuck g.

the videos were very helpful. followed them completely which made this repair very easy. Also put on a new dryer belt which again was easy because of the video.

took off frount cover then took 4 screws

Just like in the videos you had linked to you tube.

Followed the repair steps provided in the PartSelect video for the dryer! Piece-of-Cake! Trickiest step is reattaching the belt to the idler wheel (blind), but with analysis of how it goes before the drum is reinstalled, it can be done straightforwardly. Happy repairs!

Isolated problem by watching videos on your website;ordered two new rollers, one idler pulley, and new drive belt (unit is almost 19 years old).Disassembly was easy; roller replacement easy (added grease to shafts), had to get rear access to replace idler pulley and install new belt.Used a long screw driver to get leverage to get belt rolled over on to the drive wheel. Zipped it up, turned it on, and it ran quiet as a churchmouse. Your site has it all; drawings, parts/descriptions, troubleshooting videos...nice little project.Thanks, John P.

I checked the model number inside the door and googled Maytag parts: Part Select had it in stock with a picture that showed it looked right for my dryer. I ordered it and it came very promptly--I exchanged the filter and the filter works fine--easy to do and prompt service from the Part Select.

removed front of dryer, release belt tension, remove drum, remove old drum rollers, snap ring pliers a must, install new rollers and reassemble dryer.

At first I could not figure out how to get into the dryer. My brother inlaw bobby had the same issue with there dryer and told me how to remove the front of the dryer by first removing the two screw on the bottom front of the dryer. Once the front was off the rest was easy. Just a couple of pieces to remove on the inside and I was at the fan. Just as he said,the plastic fan was worn out where it slides onto the motor shaft. The only special tool I needed was a small snap ring plier to remove the snap ring on the motor shaft,other than that it was easy. Thanks to bob he saved us buying a new dryer. Maybe get a few more years out of this one.

Removed tumbler, replaced belt The tensioner was backwards from most . The U-Tube instructions were great till I got to the tensioner. My dryer dates back to before Whoorl Pool bought Maytag. The instructions were for a newer model.

Followed the video but had difficulties latching the rubber belt on to the small rollers. Video should've added 2nd option that to use the rear of the dryer to connect the belt. Just have to have a strong grip.

After watching the video to repair the glides my son and I began the process. After making the repairs and putting the dryer back together the drum would not turn. I told my son it had to be a bad belt He claimed it was not. After taking the dryer drum off we found the belt to be very brittle and worn. After calling around a shop that sold the part was found. Replacement was made and the dryer now runs like brand new. Thanks.

I repaired my dryer with the help of the instructional video provided by Partselect.com. Great parts and resources. Highly recommend to anyone looking to save on repairs because I'm not mechanically inclined and it was an overall easy repair.

Removed front of dryer. Took front drum guide off. And removed drum. Found the blower fan was spinning on the motor shaft and not fixed to it. So I replaced the fan and belt and cleaned out the insides. Maytag gave instructions on the website and the belt threading diagram was included with the belt. I also freed up one of the drum support rollers it was binding. Easy fix for anyone that can work with tools.
