Thank you for the quick response. I need to know if the motor that is completely isolated from the machine, should that turn smoothly if i spin the shaft manually?

Hi Paul, Thank you for your question. Yes, if you turn the shaft manually, it should turn smoothly. In the motor there is a copper bushing that should have lubrication that should allow it to turn smoothly. If it is not turning smoothly, there is no more lubrication. This can happen if the lint filter and vent is not cleaned regularly as it can dry up the lubricant. You can try to clean it out and add lubrication, but if this does not help, the motor will need to be replaced. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

How do i know if i need to replace this part (motor) from my dryer (Whirlpool model ltg6234dq0 with motor model s58nxmlf 6700 /motor part 3395655)? It seems to me this part is broken. I already disassembled and remove the drum and i tried to turn the motor by hand and its not turning freely. My dryer problem is after i pushed the start button it will turn slowly and will stop and make humming sound.
For model number LTG6234DQ0

Hi Paul, Thank you for your question. If the dryer will not tumble, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which ones are causing the issue. You will need to check the motor the belt, the idler pulley and the door switch. To test the motor and the door switch to see which one may be causing the issue, you will need to use a multimeter. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Thank you! It works! The humming sound issue with my dryer is resolved thru your recommendation by oiling the motor! I can put more miles to my dryer!

WHEN I PUSH THE START BUTTON THE DRYER COMES ON BUT WON'T STAY RUNNING . IS THIS THE MOTOR OR A SWITCH OR SOMETHING ELSE ?
For model number LTE6234DQ2
PartSelect logo
Hello Dominic, Thank you for the question. This is an indication the Switch on the motor is defective. The Switch is only sold as part of the Motor. The Drive Motor with Switch will need to be replaced. We hope this helps!

The dryer is making a loud squeaking sound and seems to be coming from the motor. I have seen comments to try lubricating it first how and where do I lubricate this motor? Can I accomplish this without removing the motor?
For model number MET3800XW0
PartSelect logo
Hi Roger, thank you for reaching out. According to our research, the squeaking sound most probably comes from the idler pulley, part number PS334244. For lubricating the motor, you just apply the grease to the motor shaft with the help of a cloth without removing it. We hope this sorts out your problem!
