PYE2300AYW Maytag Dryer - Instructions

Unplugged dryer from electrical outlet, lifted up top of dryer, removed overheating sensor and dryer element with 1/4"socket being very careful not to drop screws into dryer, replaced dryer element and heat sensor, closed top lid of dryer, plugged back into outlet and tested for proper operation.

open machine up and replaced the new belt.

just took off the front panel took off the belt and replaced it with the new one we watched the video pretty easy

Pulled up a You-Tube vid on how to install the belt. Went perfect.

i first watched a video on U-Tube and did exactly as they did. removed screws from the lint tray, pried up the top panel of the dryer with my putty knife, unscrewed the 2 hex screws at the top, disconnected the plug for the dryer door,and installed the new belt it really was pretty easy. the only thing I would recomend would be when installing the belt put towel or anything that would protect your arm from the botttom piece of sheet metal. I got a pretty good cut on my forearm while I was putting the belt on the bottom pully.

Replace with new latch.

You have taken me as your life-time customer. Product was so east to install. I love it how you have short videos that take you step by step. By far, that was the best thing. Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!

raised the lid, removed 2 bolts from front face, laid dryer on its back,and replaced belt, very simple. took approx. 20 min.

Opened up the dryer, to discover the broken belt at the bottom, read model, serial number. Went on line, found sites that gave parts lists and diagrams. Wrote down part no. Used Safari to find the part. PartsSelect was cheapest, had it in stock, and could ship fastest. Sears was more expensive and slower. The part arrived in 3 days as promised.Overall, it was excellent service.

I have never done this before, so I watched the video and also watched a youtube video for this model to repair belt. Used a gallon paint can to hold up the drum, while I secured the belt. whoooo hooo I did it all by myself...59 yr old Female Do it yourself enthusiast! Thanks for all the information.

1st replaced the broken drum belt, then the heating element failed, ordered a replacement, arrived over night thank you very much. Installed new heating element, 5 minutes later the motor failed. Bought a new dryer, ate the heater element as it is now used.

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

With the help of web sight found the high limit thermostat that was the problem web sight showed how to check it to make sure that was the issue. Then when I ordered the part kit the parts arrive before I expected them to arrive. Was one of the best experiences of ordering on-line we have had thank you ps if we need parts again we will be ordering from here

Shut off power. Opened the top, removed 2 screws one on each side of front door. Opened clip and removed switch and unplugged wire. Removed front door by lifting it up off bottom clips. Removed the drum and checked the drum support wheels, idler and motor pulley. Shop vacuumed everything to get all the lint, dirt and spider webs out. I was lucky, my idler has a spring, so I cut a small piece of wood and put it between the exhaust pipe and the idler to keep it out of the way. I replaced the drum, slipped the belt over the drum and centered it over the pulley (old belt mark on the drum). I reached under the right side and put the belt around the motor pulley and carefully removed the wood holding the idler, turned the drum by hand to check it. Set the front door back in place, plugged the wire back in, put the switch back in the clip, put the 2 screws back in, turned the drum by hand again. OK! Turned power back on and started the dryer. Total new belt installation time was under 10 minutes.

removed the cover over the blower wheel. Released the clamp and retaining ring. put the new blower wheel back on the axle with the slot so it couldn't rotate on its own. Reset the clamp and rings, put the cover back on the blower and put the face of the dryer back on and rehooked the vent hose and electric and was back in business. Took about 20 minutes with the new parts
