Huge thanks for the video. I was able to swap out my dryer motor painlessly!

Great! What types of symptoms did your dryer have when the motor was failing?

[@coreyelya2801]

@@PartsDr the dryer spun for two seconds and stopped. There was also a slight smell of fire.

Awesome tip with the heat gun for the glue. Thanks

Glad you found it helpful! We struggled getting ours off because Samsung used a ton of green thread locker on ours.

Exactly the prob that brought me here!

I leave door attached to the front and the fan housing attached to the front drum housing. Thanks for the heat gun tip though I have not needed it yet. Good vid😅

Nice job fixing it yourself! What kind of failure did your original drive motor have?

[@the_sports_acu9511]

@@PartsDr not sure. It had been getting louder, then sometimes wouldn’t turn on unless you manually spun the drum, then it would start. Finally would only stay on for 5 seconds and turn itself off and got a burning smell.

@@the_sports_acu9511 It sounds like the bearings in the motor might have been going bad? Thanks for sharing, that is helpful.
