DG407 Maytag Dryer - Instructions

I ordered a new rack, snapped the stuff together, and slid the old one out and the new one in. Fit beautifully. Piece of cake and much cheaper than a new dishwasher.

replaced worn parts

Assemblies snap on, no tools needed

Removed back cover of entire dryer.The thermostat was accessible from that point(Just as diagram showed), removed two wires from thermostat, removed thermostat & replaced with new thermostat & plugged 2 wires back in just as instructions indicated. Very simple,15 minute job. I will certainly use again for any appliance repairs.

After removing the front of the dryer it was evident that the blower boss had broken where the motor shaft comes through and is attached. I removed a few more parts to make the blower more accessible and removed it. I then machined a new boss and attached it to the blower and reinstalled it.I then did a quick continuity check on the three thermostats since the dryer was already apart.I discovered one was faulty and ordered a new one from you.That repair took all of five minutes.The irony of the whole thing is that while I was ordering the thermostat from you,I asked out of curiosity,if the blower was still available. As it turns out it still is but the new machined part worked out great and the dryer was back up and running in no time.

Thanks again,
Dave

ordered wrong limit switch had to reorder right switch and decided to replace the heater element as well. works fine now

Purchased x4 new adjustable legs. Leaned the washer back and held in place with block of wood. Loosened the two older front legs with an adjustable wrench because they had a locking nut and replaced with new legs. Repeated process on back side of washer. Once all the new legs were installed leveled the machine adjusting the legs if necessary.

Took the back off the dryer. Disconnected the old thermostat and installed the new thermostat. Connected the back of dryer. Put in a load of clothes to dry and the clothes were dry on the first try. Works like a new dryer. Saved a lot of money not having to buy a new dryer when all I had to do was replace some old parts.

Remove dryer back,release spring tension to remove belts. Clean lint and pulleys. Replace belts,spring tension and back and LEVEL Dryer. NOTE: The back is part of the frame, make sure all screws tighten DO NOT omit any.

Neither the washer or the dryer of the stacked unit would start. The website suggested that one of the causes could be the thermostat. I ordered a replacement that arrived quickly. Swapping the part only took minutes, and it started just fine.

New lint screen

always unplug from outlet first, unscrewed the back off and pull off the wire from cycling thermostat ,take the two screw out that holding it in place and replace the new one .Very simple and easy. Thank you for the easy step by step video to complete this repair. James

Bought a house and inherited an ancient set of appliances. I figured that they dont make em like they use to so why get rid of them. Noticed the dryer tub wasnt spinning one day after running through three cycles. I took the back off and realized the belt that made the tub spin was broke. Went ahead and ordered both belts (old age catches us all) so i wouldnt have to order the other a few weeks later. Pulled the spring took the old belt off put on the new ones like ya would a bike chain. Used the pliers to put the spring back on and voila.
