dryer not heating
I ordered the part. Took the old one off in less than 30 mins. Saw where the wires were on the oldheatting coil. And put the new one back the same way I pulled out the oldunit and plugged up the wires the same way thy were that was it. Less than 30 mins tops. Saved me a lot of money.

dryer was not putting out heat.
Hardest part was moving the machine from small washroom to a spot where I could work on it. Very easy installation if you watch the video. The new heating element slides right in and then just re attach the wiring. Good idea also to clean out the exhaust pipe vents while it is available.

very low heat in ALL cycles
I watched the VIDEO provided by THIS parts supplier, and I never before had repaired a DRYER.However, after viewing just how SIMPLE it would be to replace the dryer elements and exactly what was involved,, I felt CONFIDENT I could do the repair myself! ?The repair part arrived QUICKLY,, and the very same evening I performed the necessary repair,,, took all of about 30 minutes!! WE are BOTH very pleased her dryer works now like BRAND NEW and for such a nominal price!! THANKS Parts Select for being a fantastic company with a GREAT,, easy-to-use website!

Dryer spins, but wouldn't heat up
Me and my teenage daughter unplugged the machine and pulled it out. We removed the back panel. My four year old daughter held the flashlight while I worked and my teen provided directions from the instructional video we found on the site. We removed the two screws from the heating unit and removed the thermostat. We attached the thermostat to the new heating element. Put the heating element in place. We plugged the machine in and started it. We were jumping with joy when the coils began to glow. We waited for it to cool, screwed the heating element in place and replaced the back panel. My husband's jaw is still in the floor----girl power!!

Replace thermal fuse
This was so easy.On Parts Select I looked through the options of what might be wrong when my dryer stopped working. After ruling out any power problems and checking the door switch I moved onto the next possibility which was the thermal fuse. Although I did not have the equipment to check the old fuse to see if it was still functional, I took a chance and ordered the new thermal fuse for my model # dryer. At a total of around $20 (about 2/3 of that was expedited shipping at my choice) it was worth it to me to give this a try before calling a repairman for what might be a bigger and more expensive problem. The fuse came within 48 hours and I logged back onto Part Select to watch the very simple video of how to install. I removed the six screws from the back panel of my drier,located the old theremal fuse, removed the one screw securing it, disconnected the 2 wires from the old thermal fuse (which looked a little browned around the edges)and reattached the 2 wires to the new thermal fuse in the same manner. I then reattached the new fuse with the one screw and put the back panel back on my dryer. Set the time, and pressed the start button and it fired right up. So happy I didn't have to pay $200 plus for this simple repair. Trust me when I say you can do this yourself. Very straight forward and simple installation. Good Luck!

Dryer stopped drying
We had initially ordered the wrong parts, but I called them to send one of the parts back. While I was on the phone with the rep, we ordered what I thought would be the right part. By this time I had been without a dryer for 5 days. It was about 4 in the afternoon. I asked the rep if we could possibly get the part the next day, and she politely stated that she didn't think so. But, the very next afternoon, the part was sitting at my door! I replaced the part easily while watching the you-tube on their website, and had the dryer running like new again in about 10 minutes! And I am a woman! I saved $300 instead of buying a new dryer. We have ordered from Partsselect before, and will continue in the future. I would recommend them to anyone who has any kind of appliance repair issue.

Dryer did not work
Went to your web site and found 40% of the time the thermal fuse is the problem. By using your site found how to locate fuse & test it. It took me 10 min to take out the old part & tested it to find it bad. I ordered the part which cost $10 & got it in 3 days. It took me 10 min to install it and the dryer is fine. This save me a big repair bill.
