NWXR473ET3WB Hotpoint Dryer - Instructions

I'm a 90 pound mother of 4you and was able to fix this problem all by myself. Very easy!

Had to remove more parts than I wanted to but I had no choice. After getting unit back together and running I was relieved that I saved a ton of money.

Followed the online video & it was very easy to do ! We initially called a repair person who told us it would cost $150-$200 to fix , but he could sell us a used one he had that was newer for less !! My wife got on the internet & found the site and video to order parts & do it yourself which was really easy and cost about %45,00 to do !!!

the new door handle just snapped into place. I just removed the lint filter and slid the other one in.

First I turned off the breaker to the dishwasher. I then removed the bolts that held on the inner cover(note the two small bolts go on the bottom one on each side). I lifted the switch up and disconnected the wire clips from each side. I then put the new switch in place with the wires attached. Then replaced the cover and screwed it into place. Closed the door and flipped the breaker back on and turned the dish washer on and it started up. A very easy replaceable part.

I removed screws from control panel, and removed screws holding dryer door panel. I removed the worn front drum bearing, and replaced it with the new bearing (after snapping in the new drum bearing slides. I then properly re-positioned the front panel, and secured the two panels with the appliance screws.

Removed the front panel, replaced the belt, the front drum felt seal and drum bearing slide. It now runs quiter and the dry time is significantly improved.

Unscrewed the top lid screws located in door opening.Removed lid.Unscrewed the front cover screws located at top corners of cover, underneath where the top lid was.Pulled out drum,removing belt at same time.Removed the rear bearing unit,installed new one.Really easy.Took front bearing off front cover,it just snaps on.Installed new bearing,with 4 new slides.Reassembled machine,replacing old belt at the same time.Done.It really is that easy.Spent more time cleaning lint out of dryer interior than actual mechanical work,I think.

Folowed U-Tube video,It doesn't get better than this.

Put part in. Put the door cover on & turned on & it worked. Thanks for having the part. So far, so good.

The instructions from everyone was spot on! Take the 2 screws out that hold the top on. Open the door and the screws are right inside. Lift the top and slide the top to the left to release it from the back control panel. Then on each side, there are 2 screws that hold the front panel on. Take them out and lift the front off of the bottom pins and swing the front out to the left. Keeping in mind the wires on the bottom left side. The Drum Bearing will pop right out. Install the new slides and pop the new one back in. To install the front back on, hold the drum up and set the front back onto the pins on the bottom. Install the 2 screws that hold the front on. Slide the top back onto the guides in the back and install the 2 screws. It takes longer to clean out the lint and open the packages than to install the parts.

I watched both videos that were listed on my shipping confirmation and just followed the instructions. The videos were 16 minutes total. The repair took 22 minutes. Thanks for the support.

Removed door strike and latch, replaced, works like new.
