SGR641HS0 Westinghouse Dryer - Instructions

Replaced rear drum bearing, drum support bearing & drum belt. Still very noisy. Will order new motor & see if that does the trick.

Popped in the new door catch! Tightened the hinge screws( which work loose and allow the door to droop. The reason the catch broke!) Also put red Loctite on the screws in an attempt to keep them from backing out again! Working great so far!!!

Main problem was the bearing, replaced the belt and felt seal as well
The video instruction was very helpful
Was easy with basic mechanical aptitude
Dryer running great now

Just snap into place

First, removed the metal access panel by removing screws. (EASY)
Second, pressed the timer knob onto the timer shaft. (EASY)
Third, mounted the start switch to the mounting surface. (A BIT DIFFICULT)

Fourth, pressed the start knob onto the freshly mounted start switch. (EASY)

Fifth, replaced the metal access panel by replacing screws. (EASY)

Dryer now functions like new.

watched you tube video... a breeze

Replace rear bearing, found Exhust tube seal broken. Went ahead and replaced Drum belt & Idler arm assembly. Works like New !

I took the new door catch out of the packaging and just snapped it in place it was easy peasy and took less time than opening the package

Just fix it in the groove and pushed it on and it was done in seconds

As others have described in more detail... I lifted the top, removed the 2 screws holding the front panel (one on each side, inside the control panel on either side - not the easiest to get at, but not too bad), popped the clips holding the front panel in place and removed it. With the front panel off, the location of the coils is obvious (lower left side). The only challenging aspect of this repair is that the 2 screws holding the coils in place are really torqued in so it was crucial to use the exactly correct size screwdriver and not let the screwdriver slip while unscrewing those screws. Actually swapping out the coils took seconds, of course they have to go in exactly the same way as the old ones. I did take a few minutes extra to vacuum out years of lint from the inside of the dryer. Overall, much easier and cheaper than I was expecting and now I know where everything is inside the cabinet.

Just put them on. there wasnt any thing hard to do.

put the new knob on

I am a "do-it-yourselfer" despite my husbands opposition. I followed instructions from one of the posts on the site and took apart the dryer. I found the location of the rear bearing and took it out and replaced it with the new one. Easy as that. Made sure the parts looked the same. Made sure I saw how everything went together. I used a magnet to hold the ball bearing in place on the rear mount and taped the metal bracket on the outside of the dryer. Screwed it right in. Reassembled in reverse and works like a charm. To all the women out there who don't think they can do this. It's easy. Give it a try.

So easy! I ordered the part on the website. Received it 24 hours later. And popped it in place. Good as new.

Removed rear cover, unplug 2 spade connectors, twist out old switch, twistin new switch. plug connectors, install cover
