This dryer repair kit consists of five commonly replaced dryer parts: one multi-rib belt (part #661570V and measures 93 1/2 inches long), four drum support rollers, one idler assembly, nine tri-rings, and one washer. This universal maintenance kit is an all-encompassing kit for fixing a noisy dryer, among other symptoms, but noisy being the most common. It is compatible with 27-inch wide dryers built from 1965 onwards. Be sure to disconnect the dryer or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before you begin your repair. To access these parts, you will need to remove the dryer drum. For this installation you will need a 1/4-inch nut driver, a long flat-blade screwdriver, a short flat-blade screw diver, and a Phillips screwdriver.

The parts where there fast and everything was in one bag. After installing the rollers the last thing was to install the belt and it was the wrong size.

If you have knowledge of how to disassemble it, that's fine, I work in HVAC and it was a little easier for me, of course it took 2 hours of work but I liked disassembling my dryer and repairing it and putting it back together, I liked it because the parts were exact and I'm going to keep ordering parts from there

loud, screeching noise
Thankfully, I read this customer review before starting my repair:
"Repaired the 4 drum support rollers, 1 idler assembly, 9 tri rings, and 1 washer that came with the kit, however, the multi rib dryer belt that came with the kit did not fit my dryer. After several attempts to troubleshoot the problem, I realized that the
... Read more belt was too small. I contacted PartSelect customer service and advised that the multi rib dryer belt that came with the kit was too small and I need to purchase a belt (P/N WP8547157) that fits my dryer. Recommend: Advise customers that the belt in the kit may not fit the recommended dryer."
I called PartSelect and discovered that they HAVE NOT put a warning statement with their "PartsKit" despite the above customer's complaint! No explanation nor apology given. I bought the "PartsKit" and I PAID EXTRA TO BUY THE CORRECT DRUM BELT.
I too, recommend that PartSelect Advise customers that the belt in the kit may not fit the recommended dryer.
Ordered $245 worth of parts for four possible fixes. None of the four fixes worked. Used an appliance repair person to do more troubleshooting. Fourteen days later and after spending an additional $380 ($625 total), a new control panel was installed. That solved the problem.
Tear down , pulled drum, rollers, belts. These machines are very simple and very reliable!. I love these machines, they are one of the easiest to work on of any machine l have worked on. I have been a mechanic all my life!.Maytag got it right , their washers are as easy to work on as their dryers!..Very, Very simple..
The blower wheel had fractured due to ingesting some metal objects (previous owner)
Followed instructions for standard blower wheel replacement and repair kit installation, which were straight forward. The only real issue I ran into was removing the blower wheel, The instructions say to turn it clockwise and remove it, however this wheel had been on there for a long time and it also has a taper shoulder so it was not

Once out and on the bench and only the metal hub left on the shaft a 7/16" wrench and large vise-grips got it to break loose. The good side of this is it allowed me to blow out any lint that had built up on the motor, like new again.

Very loud squeaking noise
I removed all the panels, removed the tub, replaced the pulley, put the tub back in and replaced the panels. Just when I screwed the Last screw in the doorbell rang with the door switch which I installed immediately.

My dryer made squeaking noise when rotating.
I followed directions found on several similar YouTube videos since the instructions included in the Whirlpool parts kit were not for my model dryer. I found that the original idler pulley was not rotating and the belt had worn a groove through it. I replaced all 4 roller wheels, idler pulley and the belt. Problem solved.

Sqeeking noise fron old worn belt and rollers
Watched instructions, Ordered the kit and repair was fairly easy until the time to line up the cover over the fan wheel. That was difficult part. Would be best to have two people at this point to hold it and align the screw holes. Otherwise its was a fairly easy operation.

Noisy Dryer
I ordered the dryer repair kit and to my surprise it arrived 4 days early. I followed the video instructions on the parts select website to replace 4 rollers, belt and belt pulley. A 1/4 in nut driver attached to my Dewalt drill made life ALOT easier!! My recommendation, when you remove the rollers, take a rag and really clean up the shaf
... Read moret they ride on. Then apply a lightweight spray oil to the shafts. When you install the new rollers they will spin free and easy. Having the dryer apart is also a great time to break out the dust buster of vacuum. Spin the fan motor up front by hand and use vacuum to remove lint or belt shaving from inside the cabinet. Add this step as good fire prevention measure.

If my dryer is making loud squeaking noises and it’s in direct relation to the drum. Should I purchase this assembly or do you think it’s something else?
Hi June, this dryer repair kit 4392067 will more than likely take care of the noise issues you are experiencing. We also recommend checking the blower wheel for anything that may be caught in it. Also, keep in mind that you may not need to use all the parts in this assembly. It is made for various dryer models, and not all parts in the kit will fit your dryer. I hope this helps.

My dryer is making a thumping noise and I think I might need this repair kit to fix it. Is this assembly what I need?
Hi Deb, this kit is compatible with your model. Make sure while doing this repair you compare the belts that they are the same size. Too long or too short of a belt will affect the drying times. Best of luck with this repair!

My hubby installed the dryer repair kit part #ps373088. I see here it says not to use lube on the dryer but he said he did. Is this a problem? What will happen?
Hello Natalie, Thank you for the question. The lube should be removed before use. It can cause issues with the belt and other parts. Hope this helps!

What is the problem when a lot of lint gets inside the dryer?
For model number WED8600YW0
Hello Oscar, thank you for contacting us. You will want to check for holes in the lint filter and the exhaust vent. It's still possible for some to get past the lint filter, you may want to clean it out once or twice a year to keep it clear of lint build up. Hope this helps!

Dryer vent doesn't blow out air
For model number WED7600XW0
Hi Ron,
Thank you for your question. It sounds like you either have a motor issue or there is a build up of lint inside of your blower parts. I could suggest first taking a look to see if your blower wheel is clogged up with lint. You should also check to see if your dryer duct is kinked or blocked as well. If all of venting and duct work is cleared out and fine, you may have to look at your motor being the issue. Good luck with your repair.

Started squealing then grinding now it just stopped. I can spin the drum but when i power it up and push dry, it does nothing? Do i need a drum support kit? What part number is the kit i may need? Thanks.
For model number YMEDE400XRO
Hello Brad, thank you for inquiring. This sounds as though the Drive Motor has failed. The replacement for your model is part number PS334287. Good luck with your repair!

Running shoe blocked drum from turning then burnt smell and dryer off
For model number YWED7300XW0
Hello Robert, thank you for your question. We would recommend checking the blower belt and drum belt to see if they have broken. If the dryer will not turn on and tumble, we would recommend testing the thermostats and the belt switch beside the motor which is PartSelect Number PS11754411. I hope this helps!

Will this kit work on this Whirlpool model?
For model number MDE6400AZW
Hi Dave, thank you for your question. It will not. The rollers on your model are not the same type as in this kit. Unfortunately you will have to order the parts separately. Good luck with your repair.
