Product review (1 stars): Functional, but cheap junk that could cause a fire
Ordered this after the original motor seized up. I was disappointed to find that the motor was one of the ones sourced from China and not a true OEM model.  I was excited that it was an exact fit for my Kenmore dryer.  I too had to chisel the old fan wheel off, but that is a design problem and not a flaw with the motor. Ran the dryer twice on small loads that were already dry to get the wrinkles out and test the motor.  Dryer quit working towards the end of the second load, and a terrible odor of burnt plastic filled my house.  After tearing the dryer apart again, I found that the plastic cone located to the inside of the pinion gear had slipped towards the motor, and was rubbing as the motor ran, causing the plastic to melt and even blacken- a potential fire hazard?  Had to wash the clothes twice to get burnt plastic smell out. I chiseled the melted plastic off, and the motor now turns freely and works again, but I am not holding my breath that the motor will last very long.  Stay away from this motor and spend a little extra to get a true OEM unit and not something that could cause a fire.
