1106818610 Kenmore Dryer - Instructions

removed old lint filter by hand and replaced with new one.

i took the back apart to find the problem, then i went online to findout how tomremove the blower wheel, just googled it. Easy!Took itnall apart, just had a bit of trouble getting the wheel off, was on there very very tight. Ordered it through you, easy, and very very quick, received it in a day. I got an email explaining the reassembly process. Easy. Just follow it to a t and you will be fine. As a woman, this was an easy fix.

Took screwdriver popped out old latch in cabnet. Took pliers popped out latch out of door. Snaped new latch parts back in.

unpluged the unit removed exaust, pulled away from wall about 18 inches. Then leaned unit face down, remove back shield/cover also remove he two wires to elements. At the top of housing where element is in there is a screw that needs to be removed, then lift housing element is in side. Slide foward and lift to remove,to replace go in reverse.

Repair was very easy simply used a screwdriver to remove the cracked old latch and used my fingers to insert my new latch.

Turn off and unplug dryer, pull dryer away from wall to allow a decent working area. Remaoved use multi meter to assure no current flow, disconnect wires/remove at contact points. Remove panels and screwsnto expose heating element. Continue to remove screws from heating element, the only problem I had was reaching the top screw the is on the inside. I was able to squeeze my hand through an opening with a short/stubby flat head screw driver.

Removed front and back covers on dryer, screws on top and down one side to spread cabinet to remove drum,removed blower cover to get access to shaft nut on that side. The other is accessible. I found that both shafts can bethe longer of the two that were sent. The shorter shaft is too short and needed to be modified to let the roller come outward to lay in the grove in the drum. I will get a longer shaft and replace it.

very easy to install. gasket slipped right into place with no problem. I am 70 years old and I installed it myself. thanks for the quick delivery.

Ordered the original part for our 20+ year old Kenmore gas dryer. Then ordered the appropriate OEM adhesive (high temp silicone adhesive). Cleaned groove where gasket sits with alcohol, then placed a bead of the new adhesive. Followed Youtube video and positioned seam of gasket on top and pressed into adhesive in groove. This will shorten drying time and improve dryers efficiency.
