TDE336RBW2 Tappan Dryer - Instructions

The repair went very well.The biggest problem was the spring on the tension roller when putting back together.But it just takes a little bit of patients and it was fine.Works great now.

Brought up repair video on my smart phone and followed instructions while doing the repair (pausing when needed) and completed the job in under an hour including vacuuming the lint from inside the dryer before re-assembly.

Took apart dryer and replaced limiter located on back, reassembled dryer and tested wiithout connecting to vent. Dryer working fine without vent connection. However as always something simple turns to disaster when children help. While cleaning out lint from dryer vent which I will say was the original problem causing the limiter to trip, youngest son wanted to help. Son did not know that to walk in an attic you must step on joists not drywall. No one was hurt just banged up falling into the garage. Extended repair to ceiling added dificulty factor of 2 days and a bit of insulation clean up. Good news is the dryer works fine and the vent is no longer clogged up with lint. Watch your help it always adds to the repair.

I watched the video on YouTube for the Frigidaire repair of a thermal limiter and heater assembly. I was able to determine new part numbers very easily from the Partselect website and received them overnight. I unplugged the unit. The dryer came apart as described in the video. Old parts were attached with a few bolts and were easily removed. New parts were easily installed with a few bolts. I reassembled the covers, plugged in the dryer, and the heat now worked. I ordered one extra part which I returned and was immediately reimbursed for. Great service and great do-it-yourself information!

Referred to Video and replaced drum support bearing as shown. Did not solve the problem as noise was still present. Called professional repairman, who replaced the belt pulley, along with all the parts I had just installed (came as part of a total kit). I was on the correct path, but just didn't go far enough to check out the belt pulley. If it should happen again, I could complete the whole repair process. Great learning process!!

opened top of dryer, remove blown part and installed new part very easy.

I youtube'd the repair, and repaired it! While I was at it I replaced the belt! (Highly recommend replacing the belt while you are replacing the element!) Was a snap!

removed top-removed front-removed belt-removed drum (I didn't know how the drum came out WITH the bearing so I unscrewed the 3 middle screws on the back of the drum which released it from the bearing)- removed the bearing-that was when I knew what to order. installed the bearing on the drum before assembling all in reverse order. I wasn't sure how much grease to use so I used about 1/3 of it.

Had the drum bearing but had never got a round to putting it in we just let it squeek. Then the belt went. Easy enough, whatched the tutorial once and just did it. 35 minutes and back drying.

Very simple. Pop the top open released the beld from the back it's easier that way the video was very helpful the sound was so bad you can hear it from a few houses down after year of just using it like that I figured I ha d nothing to loose great price great instructions now it sounds just as new.

Removed 2 screws from lint frame and replaced with new frame. Less than 2 minutes actually. Dropped in new lint basket and ready to go. Part arrived faster than expected. Website very easy to use. So pleased !

I followed the instructional videos for installing the rear drum bearing kit and the upper drum glide. The repair probably would have taken less than an hour, but extra time was needed to thoroughly clean out all the lint and dirt inside the dryer. Also, the spring that holds the belt idler in position came off and I didn't realize I had put it back on backwards until after everything was reassembled. When I tested the dryer I could hear the belt rubbing on the spring.

after watching the video,I followed its instructions. No surprises No problems

Pulled dryer forward for access. Raised top by pressing clips on front. Removed front panel 2 screws. Removed old felt flange with plastic guides. Cleaned surface of old glue. Dried. apply cement per instructions applied new felt. New fit was snug and required some manipulation. When in place it helped to hold felt until cured. works great. Would not have known what problem was without the videos @ Part Select. Thanx for info and part. David

Saw video on YouTube on how to change rear bearing. Followed what I saw and repairs were made with ease. our repair kit included all the parts (new bearing) and everything fit perfect.
