RV13U7ZS8WD (APBEUUS) LG Washer - Instructions

I actually went to mr fix it on u tube. Great instruction on how to take dryer apart. First I unplugged the dryer. I found I could reach the heating system by removing the lint tube in the back of the dryer. I put my I phone with the light on inside the back of the dryer and tested the connections to see if all were working. The thermal f ... Read more use was not working. I removed the two wires , red on top and white on the bottom. Then used a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the two mounting screws and removed the fuse. I then used a vacuum to clear any lint from the back of the dryer and inside the dryer. This took me about an hour and a half. I did it this way because I did not want to disassemble the entire dryer to get to the components. I received the fuse in 3 days and tested it. It was fine. I then put it in the dryer screwed it in place, connected the wires. Replaced the lint tube. This took about 10 minutes. Dryer is running great.

I unplugged the dryer and disconnected the vent.
I pulled the dryer away from the wall so I had room to work on it.
Pulled the top cover off (slides back).
Took the door off
Took the front adjustable feet on the bottom off
Unscrewed all of the face screws on the front of the dryer
Took the two screws off of t ... Read more he back of the control panel holding the control panel to the metal frame.
Gently pulled on the control panel to reveal 4 screws under the control panel to be able to take the front cover off.
Pulled the front cover off (the dryer door front cover).
Pulled the dryer vent cover off (two screws).
I could now see the heating element with sensor/fuse (right side).
Did a continuity test (beep) on all visable sensors/fuses on the heating element. No beep on the thermal fuse (used website diagram to locate parts to test and replacement part numbers).
Got the part after about a week, tested the parted (it beeped), replaced with new part and put dryer back together, plugged in and the dryer heated. Problem solved.

1. Had to find out what was causing the problem by eliminating each part one by one using a multimeter. I got a video link from parts select on how to do this.

2. Then got another video link sent to me by parts select on how to take my dryer a part and replace the part.

3. Followed it step by step and it worked reall ... Read more y well.

4. The process was great except shipping was excessively high for such a small part.

I'm not for reading instructions. So I just dove right in and took the dryer apart to get down to the motor. I gave the dryer a thorough cleaning and replaced the 3 parts I ordered from the online recommendation. Wish I would have ordered 2 sensors and the 2 thermostats that are near the burner. Just so replace beings I was in there. Repl ... Read more acing the parts was easy, found them just by looking for matches to the new parts. Reassembled the dryer, dont think I put a single screw back where I got it lol. And still haven't put the top lid back on due to difficulty. Not sure if I even needed any parts, found a nest in my outside vent completely plugging it. But after a good cleaning and replacing the parts the dryer dries the best it has since we've owned it. The dryer came with our house which we bought 3 years ago and it was 2 years old when we purchased the house, so it is now 5 years old.

The customer support received from the this site individual. Was professional and very helpful. The video they recommended want me to the replacement part (Thermistor Ntc) step-by-step thanks to this site I had no problem at all

Removed the old one and put the new one in the slot.

Replaced thermal fuse

I took the dryer apart. You have to take the top off, then the door/front off. There are wires & other parts that need to be unhooked as well. A flat tip screw driver can be used to pop the top off. The screws were all phillips. Once you take that all apart, then you can access the drum. I bought the belt because I thought that was what w ... Read more as wrong with it. Turned out to be hair in the drum rollers. Took those all off & put wheel grease on each of them, put new belt on (since I had it LOL) then put it all back together. Make sure everything is lined up correctly otherwise you will have to take it apart & reline (which I had to do)
I am a 49yr old female & was able to do this repair on my own!

order start button and was sent thermal, reordered and rep sent me a button that was not for my machine even though she had model no.,called third time and was told I had to order new control panel but they were not being manufactured any more.so it is not fixed

Entered dryer from rear exhaust port. Removed 2 screws and 2 clip on wires. A little awkward of process but superior method over disassembly of drum and main parts.

Take old one out and slide new filter in.

Removed the old damaged filter and replaced it a new one.

Put the new lint filter in and it was completed

Opening the dryer door on the vertical axis rather than the horizontal axis, I unscrewed the three obvious screws. These screws are clearly visible when viewed from eye level. The broken hinge came off in two pieces, but presented no difficulty. I inspected the area around the hinge for auxiliary damage. There was none, but I did noti ... Read more ce a wisp of cotton candy stuck in the lint trap. This was odd as I had not had cotton candy of any kind in my home or near my dryer ever. I did hear the faint sound of calliope music-I assumed this to be from an ice cream van that frequents the neighborhood-but failed to detect the tell-tale doppler effect of a moving vehicle. Disturbed, but determined to finish my task I removed the new part from the packaging and checked the fit. It fit perfectly. NOTE: Retain the screws from the hinge you remove, as the replacement hinge does not come with screws. I looked down to where my screws lay and saw the bulbous oversized toe of large red shoe. There was a star on the tip, painted in blue and yellow. I looked up from the shoe to see it attached to an ankle with a frilled cuff and up from there a baggy pair of pantaloons. At this point I realized that circuses now being illegal in this country, I clearly had a rogue clown on my hands. Sitting as I was I was not able to quickly get up, and in the confines of my washroom I had nowhere to run anyway. I had to think fast. I could smell the stale popcorn on the clown's breath as he leaned over, I reached for anything I could, grabbing up a pet cleaning vacuum hose. The clown just snorted and said, "You want a Phillip's head for that." The clown was right, of course. I installed the screws, checked that the door worked, and then the clown and I went for churros.
