MDE7600AYW Maytag Dryer - Instructions

Took the entire dryer apart after watching a video online. Replaced the rollers & the belt & put dryer back together. Since I am a machine builder by trade I knew how to do some of this after watching the video, but not sure how easy this would be for someone untrained.

watched the video.unpluged the power to the dryer disasembled the front of the cabinet removed the belt from the idler pulley and then removed the drum cleaned up the dust and lint in base of the cabinet and then removed the e-clip from the shaft on the idler arm removed the outer washer then worked off the pulley with pressure from a small flat blade screw driver removed the inside washer. cleaned the shaft and greased it with white lithum grease installed the first washer then the pulley then the out side washer then the e-clip but found that the pulley had a little side to side play removed pulley and installed one of the old washers on the inside along with the new one reasembled the pulley washer and e-clip the play was gone and the e-clip fit in the grove ok reasembled the cabinet and the noise was gone you could see the old bearing in the pulley was rusted

Pulled the front off. then the inner face and drum. removed belt and two pulleys and re-installed. took me 45 mins. never done it before. watch the video that comes with the parts confirmation you get online and do the job.

Removed door &clips on latch side of door using a philips screw driver. Removed the dryer front panel by hand exposing the two metal clips holding down the dryer top panel. Using a nut driver, the two clips were removed allowing the top panel to be raised. The dryer drum was manually rotated to the location of the broken baffle. Using a nut driver, the broken baffle was removed. The new baffle was installed in reverse order.

Exactly as shown in your helpful video- took dial apart and replaced broken skirt with new one-- cost me only $15, saving at least $100 on service visit. Very happy with it!

replaced both solenoids on the gas valve.

Remove old skirt and replaced with new skirt on timer

I followed the video. It was real easy.

This was an easy fix once I ordered the correct part. I snapped the cover off top and then separated skirt from knob. I then slide it onto the metal stem. I needed to remove a small black plastics piece in order for knob to go on fully. This must have broken off the old skirt. Extremely easy to do and the video was great

The noise started intermittent and got worse. After watching an online repair of a very similar model and same brand, I decided to tackle it myself. The problem was that one of the drum support rollers had seized up. The shaft that support roller road on was also a little sticky. The noise was caused by the roller hitting the sheet metal behind the drum support roller and scraping on it. I replaced the shaft and drum roller and believe that solved the problem. I ordered other parts for the dryer drum assembly and replaced them while I had it apart. I didn't want to take it apart twice so I didn't take the time to disassemble to diagnose it. I just ordered them all and replaced them all while I was in there.

Pull dryer knob off. Separate the skirt from the knob and cover. (I also had to remove the rear panel in order to disconnect the wire to the dryer buzzer.)

Remove the old on and pop in the new. Good time to vac the insides as well.

I searched for possible symptoms and viewed a video about how to remove the heating element. There were three possible parts listed for this symptom: Thermostat, thermal coupling and heating element. I decided to check the heating element continuity, so I removed the heating element. Once I looked at the heating element, I could see a break in the heating coil, so I know the problem. I put my existing thermostat on the new heating element, plugged in 4 wires and installed two screws to secure the heating element, then reinstalled the front cover to the dryer.

IT was good My husband fixed it .sorry we didn't take video but it is working alright. Thank you
