MDE3000AYW Maytag Dryer - Instructions

I was so excited that it was so easy. I watched the short video that the website had. This helped me make sure to order the correct part. It was so easy to understand. My part arrived in a couple of days. I removed the old dial, snapped the pieces together and was done in about 5 minutes. It was so easy because this website makes it that way. No guessing. Saved a bundle by not having to call a repairman. Thanks so much. I have already told others about your site.

Took 2 screws out of front panel, set it to the side. Took 4 screws out of next panel. Remove guard over the thermo switch, 2 screws . Remove panel that held blower wheel in place. Took e-ring clip off of shaft, then took needle nose pliers and remove retainer clip, replaced blower wheel.

I check on the internet to see how to do this before I started. I did just as they said to take the front cover off then the door and pull the drum out a short distance then put the belt on. It worked out just as they said to.This was very easy with the instruction on line.Thanks a lot.

Tried to replace drive belt. Squeaking continued. Tried to lubricate rollers. Squeaking improved for a short time. Returned. Replaced rollers. Problem solved.

I went online and found a video that showed how to do the repair. Although the video showed completely removing the drum; I was able to do the repair by moving the drum to the left and right to access the rollers. By not completely removing the drum I was able to skip reinstalling the belt and re-threading the belt around the tensioners. I found installing the belt slightly difficult the first time I removed the drum when I tried to grease the drum roller. That repair didn't last very long. By not removing the drum the total time to repair the dryer took less than twenty minutes!

One of the roller wheels was completely broken off. So I followed the video and took the drum out and replaced both roller wheels. Retaining clip pliers helped get the roller wheels off. Greased wheels prior to installing. Also removed the idler wheel on the motor assemply and greased it while I was in there. Also vacuumed all lint out (including motor). Pulled front of exhaust vent off using nut driver to remove screws. Cleaned lint from around the two sensors in that assembly. put everything back together and made sure belt was not down in the recessed groove on the tub. When reassembled, it was incredibly quiet.

Replaced the roller and shaft. The bearing on the roller had worn out and then worn down the shaft. We let this go on for over a year. The shaft was worn half away. Found the service manual for my dryer online and used it as a guide to taking it apart. First door, then a couple of screws. Removed belt, then drum. Replaced rollers and shaft. The damaged parts were obvious. The rollers and shafts require the socket and snap ring pliers. There was a layer of rust dust all over the inside of the dryer. Vacuumed out all of the lint and rust. Put everything back together. Works great now, no squeaking.

simply watch repair video on internet, make notes, and remember to note about brackets positions when reassembling

Watched you tube video and followed instructions. Repair went well but the vibration still is present on start up. Considering this is not my line of work I think it was a matter of misdiagnosing the problem. The rollers were worn so probably not a total waste of time and money.

I watched the video instructions and followed the steps.

replaced timer, no problem

Removed the top and front panel, drum and repalced belt.

I'm so happy I saved so much money. For the repair man just to show up would have cost $80. He gave me an estimate over the phone of $214.20 to fix the problem. At first I noticed my dryer arrow wasn't on the length or heat/air it was pointing to, and it seemed to slip, then it stopped working altogether. I found this site, trouble-shooted the problem, ordered the part for $4.29 (the shipping was more than the part). And the video showed me what to do. I normally don't fix anything, so I amazed myself! Completely fixed the problem and I couldn't be happier!!!

Took the front and the lint catcher off the dryer to expose the front of the drum and the glides. On our dryer the drum rests on a roller in back and smooth glides in front which are held in place by rivets. these glides had worn down to the metal so that the drum was grinding against the metal ridge as it turned. Drilled out the existing rivets using a 1/8" drill bit. Took out remains of old glides and inserted new. Rivets came with the kit and it was easy to assemble. Put it all back together and now the dryer works beautifully!!

Watched the video, made the repair and can not believe how simple it was and the money I saved!!!!!!!!Part was delivered in record time....Super Site & Seller
