How To: Samsung Dryer Thermistor DC32-00007A

[@kellysobieski887]

Thank you sooooo much!!!! Ihelped work on dryers with a girlfriend across the country years back for gas money to make it home and I only weigh 105 lbs. but I have to say this is the best tutorial I've seen!! I got the drum out and everything was lightweight. forget paying someone to come out for hundreds of dollars. you are awesome!!

[@appliancepartspros]

Thanks, glad the video helped you get the dryer fixed!

[@MrBigStig]

Great video, thank you! An $8 part and about 20 minutes later the dryer is back up and running. Who knows how much this saved me by not having to call a service technician. Well done!

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad the video helped you get the dryer fixed!

[@patronsindycar]

Great video guys! Important thing for everyone to remember is check this if the dryer is not running at the correct temperature. Also check for blockages and if the unit is too close to the wall.

+Lavadoras y Secadoras Mazatlan Thanks for the tips!

[@lorriebroyles2986]

Very good video. The technician explained every step thoroughly!!!

[@Mr.Zanderson]

Awesome video! Thanks for the step by step instructions. Saved me hundreds!

[@martinvrolykmarketing5414]

Awesome video. Thank you so much. Easy to follow and my dryer works again!

[@pecm6559]

U r the best guys- thanks for the video.

My model No. dv4448agw/xa isn't heating. Is this only heating element to change ? Great vid btw. Will help tons.

[@vansheatingandac]

I accessed it from the front. Very tight squeeze. Magnetic screwdriver makes all the difference. HVAC tech by trade so I had to think out side the box before I took this thing all apart lol

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad you were able to fix your issue! If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.

[@srsalsedo]

Great video...2 beers and a relaxing time working on the dryer I find my thermistor is accessable after taking off the front panel.... not the whole disassembly... I'm an idiot

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad that you were able to do your repair. If you need help with anything else please let us know!

[@broo148]

Should this part be able to be tested with a multimeter? I have a new one that won’t register

[@DavidCareyFoster]

Would this part also be a good candidate to change if the drying is locked up with a flashing "flow sensing" and "drying" lights? The vent is clear.

[@jquintanao]

Simply great. You guys help me save at least $350!!! I’m kind of handy, but without this video I would have to pay for a technician. It’s extremely clear and doesn’t skip a single step. Only one question. The video says that the drum’s pink tape goes back. First time I open my dryer and it was in front. Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

[@rh71el2]

Would this part also cause the dryer to run longer than it should? On normal mode it uses the "moisture sensor" and it runs for over 1.5 hours and the clothes are already hot and dry, yet it didn't stop and still shows 9 minutes left the last 2 times. It showed 44 minutes before even starting the cycle so not sure why it runs this long.

[@davidchoeun]

I replaced the heater element and all the sensors on it. Will this cause the element from not turning on period? I had an he code and then put in a new element. Code is gone now and now it seems the element won't even heat up. I checked the wiring to see if I forgot to plug anything in but everything seems to check out.

[@rogerenriquez9891]

Very good video. But why don't show the problem. Using your dryer.

[@appliancepartspros]

This is a replacement video, we do also have troubleshooting videos that show how to test parts.

[@robertfrey5624]

I had a hard time taking the control panel off so I change the thermistor through the back door

[@richardhoughtonjr1143]

I have seen other videos where the drum goes back in with the pink to the front, so now I don't know which way is the right way.

[@appliancepartspros]

What is the model number of your dryer?

[@ThuyNguyen-jh5nc]

Thank you so much

[@ericarcidiacono9936]

My dryer only dries on time dry, what could be the problem? Thanks!!

[@appliancepartspros]

What is your model number? How often do you clean your lint filter or the duct work that leads to the outside?

[@shamardjackson5001]

Do it matter which side the thermistor is plugged to the blue or red wire

[@appliancepartspros]

+Shamard Jackson We always say in the videos to replace the wires in the same place you took them off. A thermistor is not polarity sensitive so it should work if you swapped the wires. Hope the video helped you get the dryer running!

[@shamardjackson5001]

Thanks Sir. I was wondering about the polarity of the thermistor because I didn't here it mentioned in the video. Thanks again

[@stevenward6664]

@@shamardjackson5001 It did say blue wire on top. But it did not say anything about thermistor only fitting one way "correct prong up" like idiot-proof installation.

[@josiahstearns9615]

I’m sorry, but this a clear criticism against Samsung (not the video instructions) but that is one of the most ridiculous places to put the dang sensor for ease of repair. Can’t remember what brand my wife had before we got married since it’s been quite a few years - but on that old dryer it was one of the easiest parts to replace. This is a joke, Samsung!!! unbelievable that I’d need to watch a video with this many steps just to replace a $20 part. My gosh. Thank goodness there are videos like this otherwise I’d be consulting the manual or talking with an associate at a local ma/pa appliance hardware store for instructions…. Ain’t no way I’m gonna spend hours on the phone with Samsung on how to maneuver through all this stupidity.

[@piqua793]

Great Job.

piqua793 Glad the video helped you get the dryer fixed!

[@YuckFou2213]

My dryer only gets hot hot when empty , but when loaded only gets barely warm , even with only 2/5 garments in it … … ?? Is this my issue ?

[@cdplaya3034]

hahaha hes doing the most the whole element housing is removable from bottom dont take apart your whole dryer to replace the thermistor

[@airwreckbee313]

Changed the thermistor and filter light still blinks 5x. What's next?

[@appliancepartspros]

What is the model number of your dryer?

[@airwreckbee313]

Also changed the thermostat.

[@pay9011]

What a terrible place to put the thermister. Next dryer I buy I'll be sure to check out how difficult it is to replace these parts.

[@appliancepartspros]

Whatever dryer you purchase next, we'll be happy to help you with it too! :)

[@paulcamalin5236]

In the newer ones they have put it right behind the door. So you do not have to remove the drum.

[@raterus]

It's really not that difficult to access, yes you have to take everything apart, but that really only takes about 15-20 minutes if you go in knowing what to do.

[@lamarduke2770]

If the thermistor goes bad. Does it cause the thermal fuse to keep tripping?

[@burleydad]

You have to remove the drum to replace a consumable part. Samsung: Tell me you knew nothing about dryers without TELLING me you knew nothing about dryers. This rediculous service would be OK if these were more reliable than old school dryers where all you had to do was remove the back panel to replace consumables; They aren't.

[@unsealedabsurdfiles]

lol, meanwhile, every other manufacturer under the sun places the sensor at the top of the dryer under the lid.... why did you choose a Samsung for this video!

[@appliancepartspros]

Well it is a Samsung part so we used that dryer, hope the video helped you out!

[@Kickstandsup83]

*fg@ffgf5885sd55s sorry but that's just not true. Most dryers thermostat is on the blower assembly.
