This dryer has worked great since we bought it new a million years ago, but finally the belt is squealing a bit and it doesn't seem to get as hot as it once did. Is there a general repair rebuild kit for standard items that fail over time?
For model number MDE5500AYW
Hi Mitchell, thank you for your inquiry. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend replacing the belt, part number PS11741110, to remove the squealing sound issue. If your dryer is not heating enough, you may have a clogged lint filter and dryer vent. We would suggest cleaning the vent and the lint filter to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!
Hi Kevin, thank you for reaching out. We have researched and found that the issue is with the dryer thermal fuse, part number PS11740687. It is a safety device and shuts off the dryer when the dryer overheats. You may need to replace the thermal fuse to fix the issue. We hope this sorts out your problem!
Hello, having trouble with the sensor on the dryer, does not light up and tell you any time. The dryer runs but shut off and the clothes are not dry. Inconsistent
For model number MDE5500AYW
Hi Michael, thank you for your question. Looking at your model information there are a few parts that you should take out and test to see which one is giving you the issue. The first parts to check in this case would be all of your thermostats and thermal fuses. You can test those parts with a multi meter and they should be reading 0 ohms to be working correctly. If those parts are fine, you should then go on to testing your heating element as well. You can also test that with a multi meter and it should be reading between 0 - 50 ohms. Something else you should also check would be your filter and ducts. Make sure there is absolutely no blockage that would restrict air flow in your appliance. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Dryer keeps turning off when started showing a code pf then we can restart and it will run sometimes taking a few times
For model number MDE5500AYW
Hello and thank you for writing.
The PF is a power failure code and it indicates the control is not sensing any voltage. The PF could be caused by a voltage drop during a storm but you should be able to clear it and run the dryer. We suggest to try a hard reset:
Go to your breaker box and shut the breakers for your unit off, wait 5 minutes and then turn the breaker to on again. That should hopefully clear this problem.
If this does not fix this problem then your control panel PS2036215 might be faulty and possibly needs to be replaced. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime.
