YCEE2790KQ1 Whirlpool Dryer - Instructions

very simple. actually did a little more then was necessary. once we removed the back of the dryer, used our vacuum to vacuum up all the lint that was back there. Watched the video on how to repair the part when we ordered it and it was easy as can be.. we have used this web site to repair our oven, fridge and now the dryer. Everything went according to plan. I reccomend this site as much as i can and it has saved us a lot of money. Thank you!

When I initially inspected the dryer when it stopped working, I noticed a ball of lint had collected on the backside of the thermal fuse. I figured that had allowed the temperature to exceed the fuse's max temp. To relace, I simply removed the dryer's rear panel, disconnected the thermal fuse and replaced it. Once all back together, the dryer powered on with no problem.

First i did some research on the internet approx.1yr ago.Just in case any problems like this or any other kind of problems should arise which it did.The whole thing is Easy all you have to have is some basic knoledge of how things work.All of this came "OFF" in (4) sections.After installing everything back it was as "Quiet"as the day we purchased it.Good for another 5yrs.Retired welder & "J.O.A.T.Julian San Antonio,Texas

Per the electrical diagram that was in the dryer , using a VOLT OHMETER I found the thermal fuse was open. Then ordered the part , arrived the NEXT DAY via Standard Shipping. Easy to replace .

This dryer refuses to die and I am happy to keep it that way. Door latch was replaced in less than a minute using this kit. Easiest repair ever.

Slipped screwdriver on top and bottom of catch and pullef out. Pressed new catch in plact. Job finished.

No repair. Just replaced the screens in the dryer and they slide in and out to clean. The felt gets worn fast.

Followed the instructions and really quite easy to fix. I didn't know why dryer wouldn't turn on but went with the odds that the thermal fuse was the problem-- and it was. Once I got the part it was back together and running in less than 30 minutes!

I am a licensed electrician I found the bad part and I ordered it and when it came in I replaced it.

took the back off and the heating element and thermal fuse out. Reversed.

removed old one, threw it away, and inserted new one.

Using information found on this site, I was able to quickly locate the two bolts on the lower front panel of the dryer to get at the heating element. Once I removed the panel, I was able to use a multi-meter to determine that the heating element was the issue as the resistance reading was infinite opposed to the expected 10 ohms. When the replacement part arrived, I then re-accessed the heating element to remove it. I removed two bolts from the front deflector to gain access to the heating element (after opening the lower panel) and also removed a third bolt that held the heating element in. Once those were removed, I was able to remove the old heating element which was indeed bad as the wire was broken. I did find that it took a little effort to remove the old heating element. It was quite firmly placed in its location however once I put enough effort into it, it came out quite nicely and the replacement element went in quickly.

Removed two small screws on door edge, pop out broken part, insert new part, replace screws. Took 2 minutes 18 seconds. Nice to have various door catches in the Kit. This was a repair on a 1979 Whirlpool Dryer. Great price & service!!

I watched a fix it video and than just followed what it said to do. My husband was very impressed and it saved us a lot of money. I had my dryer running in no time. Parts came very quickly after I ordered them. Thank you

The videos really make it easy. I put my laptop on the washer next to my dryer and proceeded step by step. I also found the video that mentioned about the screws that may come loose on the baffles. I found several loose screws on the baffles which I tightened and I also found the Drum hole plug loose, so I also tightened the plug. Reassembled the unit and has been working like new since.
