It took me most of the day, but I got both fuses and the heating element replaced and I even cleaned the rollers.Thanks to you, no service guys had to be called (or paid), which is huge for this single mom of 6. You have great instruction and did it with easier steps than most other videos. I would not have been able to get that drum back in without your inside view. Thank you, thank you!!!
Wow. Absolute wow. I worried when my dryer quit heating that it was going to cost me hundreds of dollars. I watched this video and decided to order the parts and give it a go myself. The parts came in (I ordered the whole set) and I sat down with this video and my dryer. I got through it one step at a time, paused the video, replayed to make sure I didn't miss anything, and wow. My dryer is fixed. I didn't even know how to use a multimeter when I started. I still don't really, but I can check for continuity. My dryer had the exact same issue and I changed both pieces, just as he said to do. Wow, $30 and about two and half hours of my time. Thank you for this extremely instructional step by step. You really saved me so much.
Thanks for sharing the video of the repair! I was able to find the issue (thermal fuse went bad), order the parts (via Amazon), and made the repair following your instructions! Now my mom's dryer heats again! Much appreciated! Thanks and God bless!
Thanks for the video. This helped me repair my sister's dryer and she is forever thankful that she doesn't have to shell out money right before Christmas. Now she can use that money for my nieces/nephews. Thanks again.
Thanks just fixed ny dryer ( same model ). Heating element went bad. The 3 hardest parts were getting the top open for some reason was a pain. Getting belt back on i accidentally let go of the pulley and spring flew off. And then lining up the new heating element. Plus cleaning a ton of lint. First time cleaning inside it in about 9 years. Fan motor had lint on blades. Never had taken it apart before. Video worked great. You make it kook easy. Took me about 2.5 hours to disassemble and clean everything inside, test, replace heating element, clean, put back together snd clean vent hose. Hopefully will last another 9 years.
I am a 53 year old woman and you just saved me $100's! I bought parts for belt, rotor, thermal fuse and within 2 hours I fixed all this all by myself! Thank you excellent tutorial!
This is the third or fourth video I've seen on fixing the heating issue. By far the best of the bunch. Thanks for the great explanations - especially how to run the dryer belt correctly.
This video just saved me hundreds of dollars. Your video was absolutely great and I was able to take apart and replace the heating element in an hour after watching this video. Really appreciate this one.
Thanks for your help! The view inside the dryer (at around 14:40) was really helpful -- you made it look easy, and although it wasn't quite as easy for me, it all worked out. Thanks again for taking the time and energy to compose and post this video. Much appreciated!
Thank you so much! Excellent instructions… I do not know how a repair like this cost, but I know you saved me hundreds. Again thank you and God Bless 👊💪
you can get to the heating element box and check the sensors/fuse and remove the box with out taking out the drum. I did it by removing the exhaust in the back and using a stubby screw driver to reach in and unscrew it, mine was on a different model Samsung dryer (DV40J3000EW/A2) but the same set up for the heating element and sensor/fuses. Great video there
HALLELUJAH! This video saved me $100s of dollars. I appreciate your brief yet super informative walkthrough. Turns out my coil had failed (snapped) and it only cost me a $32 replacement part. Thanks so much!
Thanks for the video. Going to be dong this as soon as my parts arrive. One thing I would suggest for others (like me) first timing it. Take a picture with your phone of the connections of the parts/wires prior to removing. That way you have a visual record of where/how the parts and wires go if you are forgetful, like I am. Great explanations and execution of this repair, Makes me feel confident I can do it too.
🙏🏽 thank you for posting this! The heating element and thermostats are on Amazon for $30. That plus this video probably saved me at least $200 or more. Much appreciated!
This fixed my dryer! Thanks so much for the very helpful video. The part that showed how to put the belt back on was awesome. This video saved me about $275.
@@donttrip775 Is just paid about $40 shipped for all three parts at Amazon. Only because I also bought the heating coil and they were oem. You can get it cheaper with other branded parts.
@@donttrip775 Awesome! Lucked out. I'm doing this job on Sunday afternoon. Parts are on the way. I don't know if I need the heat element, but it's better to have and not need than need and not have.
Thank youuuuuu so much for this awesome how to video! My dryer stopped heating yesterday. I did Samsung error test, got he error. Appliance repairs said $75 to come out and check! So I called the appliance store, they said most common issue is fuse. So I bought a fuse for 12.99 and 30 mins later I have a working dryer and I did it all by myself! Thank you so much.. Only issue I have now after installing everything is when my dryer powers off, it makes a noise for about 10 seconds. It didn't do that before?
Awesome video, makes a job like this so much easier and saves a ton of time. Thanks for listing the parts and where to get them, what a big help, hopefully RUclips is writing you a nice fat check!!
Thank you so much for the video! It helped us identify that our heating element broke and we ordered the repair kit that included all 4 parts using the link you provided. Might as well replace all the parts while we are in there! Take care! 😊
Thank you for the video! It helped me fix my dryer. I ended up replacing the heating element, not the same part the needed replacing in the video, but I don't think I could have figured it out without your help. Thanks!
Thanks for the help. It's really good. I've fixed this at least a couple of times before and still needed this help. Now I'm challenged with a dryer that only gets partially hot depending on settings from the controller (controller parts etc have been discontinued so I hope nothing there). I'm going to have one more kick at the cat before I throw in the towel and save up for a new one.
Excellent video. I replaced the Thermal cut-off about a month or so ago and now it isn't heating again (bummer)! This time around I'm going to replace all 3 switches, the heating element, and the belt while it's apart. I just wonder if parts are the same quality wherever you purchase them. I bought the last switch from Amazon
Thanks for this video. I was able to take apart my Mom's dryer, and identify the issue. It wasn't the same issue as this, but instead was the common, melted wheel, on the idler pulley assembly. Not sure why you'd include heat sensitive parts, in a device who's only function is to introduce heat into a semi-closed system, but I am not the designers at Samsung.

7/22/23 Note: At video marker 6:31, unplugging the interlock switch wasn't necessary (the switch did not budge when attempting to disconnect). I was able to gently (video marker 6:58) remove the front panel and sit it to the side and lean it against my washing machine without putting tension on the switch wiring.
The interlock switch doesn’t want to disconnect, would you say maybe it needs to be heated up a little with a hair dryer for instance? I’ve been really pulling hard to get it disconnected but I’m afraid I might break it from trying too hard
Would it be wise for me to buy spare thermostat and parts, so I’ll have them on hand when they wear out? How often do these things break? Which parts wear out the most? What causes them to wear out? Overstuffing the dryer, for instance?
Those thermostats most of the time don’t go bad unless you you have a problem with your dryer vent or clogged dryer vent and The parts the most goes out are the drive pulley and the bearing wheels but that is depends on the model and the brand so my advice is just make sure you do a dryer vent cleaning once a year
This didn’t work for my dryer. Changed both out but still not getting hot. Anything else I need to check out? The heating element appears to be good. No breaks in it. Thanks, Steve
so this dryer is worth fixing? the extra plastic pocket lint screen broke off. is this piece crucial, do i need to order a new one, iyo? i it still seems to catch lint well. It has stopped heating though. Other owners seem to think this machine isn't worth fixing...
Amazon had the new heating element and both thermostats for like $30 so I didn't check any of them yet, would u recommend changing the heating element at this time since I have it and gonna be in there anyway? or leave it till it goes out?
Those terminals you're testing at 9:16, I assume that the heating element connection? I don't have continuity there, but I do on the thermostats. Do i need a heating element?

I was able to take everything apart and replaced the same two parts as you - cut off thermostat and high limit thermostat. Ordered from Amazon based on the info you listed above. Put everything back together and still no heat. Whyyyy? Is there something else that could be causing this? It's not the vent or the exhaust.
@@DIYRepairsNow Will do. Thanks. When reconnecting the blue/black wires to the new cut off thermostat and high limit thermostat - does it matter if the blue or black wires are connected?
All my lights on mine are flashing blue and it won't get hot and it has nothing to do with the event being full the vent is fine and the power is fine and it spins but it will not dry my clothes and all the lights are blinking blue what does this mean?
You gotta make sure you’re getting enough power from the breaker and to bypass the moisture sensor you have to put it in time dry and send it to 30 or 45 minutes
Not spinning is probably the belt unless you hear no noise then it could be the motor which isn't such an easy fix. The belt/pulley is cheap on amazon.

I've used this video twice. 3 months ago and then now. The vent pipe from the dryer up through the roof of the house was cleaned 3 months ago. The heating element has gone out again. Never buy a Samsung.
With the help from your video I was able to take it apart and determine what the problem was. Unfortunately for me it was cheaper to call my home warranty company and have them repair it than or it myself and do it.
