Drum heats, but it is not blowing the hot air to dry the clothes.
For model number MEDB400VQ0
PartSelect logo
Hi Will, Thank you for your question. If the dryer is heating, but there is no heat blowing on the clothes, there is likely a clog in the exhaust vent and it will need to be cleaned out. You should also check the lint filter. If it is full of lint, clean it. Check the motor and blower wheel as well to see if they are working correctly. If they are not, you will need to replace the parts. We hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day.

Code number F01 is coming up.
For model number MEDB400VQ0
PartSelect logo
Hi Pam, Thank you for your question. The F01 indicates that the main electronic control board has failed. This error code can sometimes be caused by a glitch or power surge through the electrical lines. You may be able to clear this code by unplugging the washer for 5 minutes. If the code returns, you will need to replace the main electronic control board, part number PS11748358. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Dryer door catch broken
After a few years of slamming the dryer door (at least that is what my husband says), the catch on the dryer door broke. Using pliers (I used needle nose) squeeze the outer edges of the catch together (vertically). With it compressed, it should slide out easily. My husband had jacked with ours prior to the repair, so the broken piece in the door was actually sideways and would not fit through the hole. Using a screwdriver, I pushed that piece into the door (it lives in the door somewhere now). I was then able to slide out the rest of the old catch. Compress the new catch and insert it into the hole in the door. Push it in until it clicks into place. DONE! Happy Drying!

very loud squeeling sound
The issue was the idler pulley. First I began opening up the front panel based on a youtube video but soon realized the model was slightly different and required a lot more items to remove. I saw the pulley in the back with nothing in the way so I put the front panel crap back on and removed the rear panel. There it was, very simple to remove and replace. I'm not looking forward to drum rollers though. Hopefully they're aren't as difficult as they appear.
