Product review (5 stars): Just What My Dryer Needed!
After my dryer stopped working, I called a repair guy to troubleshoot why it would no longer start. He charged almost $100 to tell me that the motor was no good. He said it would cost almost $300 to fix but that the $100 diagnostic fee would be waived. Talk about highway robbery. For what he was charging, I could just buy a new dryer instead.

Well before I decided to invest in a new machine, I went on-line to see if I could do it myself. Sure enough there were a couple of sites who offered step by step instructions on how to do your own diagnostic. I first purchased and changed the thermal limiter. That didn't fix it. Next, I changed the safety thermostat. Still no good. I finally changed the switch and the dryer still wouldn't start.

Finally, I saw the motor on amazon for $62 and said this would be my last attempt. After watching a tutorial on repairclinic .com, I was able to swap the motor with no real issues. It took about an hour because I had to run and get a 7/8 socket head. Other than that, no problems. The motor came nicely packed and looked brand new.

I'm very pleased with the purchase and having a working dryer again!
