After watching your video, I decided to break my Samsung down for maintenance and clean out all the lint. I found my idler arm was seized and had about half the wheel chewed up by the belt. I found a local parts guy and paid way too much for the convenience of having it today, but it's replaced! I tested the other components as you demonstrated and they tested good. I cleaned everything and put it back together. 4 years later and your video is still making a difference. Thanks for saving me money and time by discovering the defect before it caused a failure! Most appreciated.
Thank you and I’m glad it helped
Raleigh is a wonderful man
I’ve replaced the heating element twice and changed the belt and pulley once on my dryer. I’ve never fixed any kind of appliance prior to this but this video made it look so simple and gave me the courage to do so. Thank you for this video! I refer back to it every time. Not giving up on my dryer just yet thanks to you!
I’m glad it helped
Great instructions; no nonsense. Got mine disassembled and found a broken heating coil. Parts were only $25 including sensors. Was thinking I got off easy, then cut myself removing lint with a towel. As you mentioned, some edges are unexpectedly sharp. Cleaned the rest with gloves. Anyway, works fine again. Thanks for the video!
Thank you 🙏
Dryer stopped working last night, followed the video and found the problem quick, my idler pulley broke off. Thanks to this video I will get my dryer fixed tonight when the parts arrive.
I’m glad you were able to fix it and I live stream on Saturday and Sunday so stop by and chat with some cool people
So easy to follow. The repair guy came the other day and said we voided our warranty because there was too much lent inside. Found this video after and I already opened up the dryer and cleaned all up. Just waiting for the parts to get here. Now I can fix my dryer without the repair guy. Thank you!
Mr. Raleigh. You got a talent for teaching, watched your video and found easy to repair my clothes dryer. Thanks for explaining that repairing Samsung appliances are like working on trucks from the 1970's... Ample space to replace parts, No complicated wiring diagram, no hoses everywhere...just plain and simple. Thanks 👨🔧
I appreciate your kind words
This video made all the difference for me. Thanks so much for the help you have provided! I now have complete confidence to repair my dryer the next time it breaks.
I feel like SuperWoman! I fixed my dryer thanks to this great video. A golf tee had stopped the blower from spinning!
I'm a grown ass man too, but sometimes I need help from another grown ass man on RUclips. Thanks you saved me hundreds of dollars.
Great video, so helpful! You helped me to take apart my Samsung dryer, fix an unrelated problem, and re-assemble. Works fine now, thanks to your awesome instructions.
Thanks for video switching out belt and idler pulley. Easy to follow steps. Not only are you the Man you are the "Grown Ass Man"
Thanks for this video. We searched high and low for information regarding opening up the front of our Samsung dryer model No. DV50F9A7GVW/A2 The one on this video is exactly the same as ours. Our problem was a noisy, vibrating operation. Being confident it was excess lint build up in the wheel, we wanted to fix it ourselves. We are a 75 year old husband and wife. With your guidance we were able to open the front then switched over to another video showing how to fix a noisy, vibrating Samsung dryer. remove the blower cover plate and clean out the wheel. Problem solved! Great video!
I’m glad to hear you were able to fix it
I just found this video after opening up mine by just figuring it out. I took out way too many screws but gave everything a good cleaning. I had my heating element go bad. Your technique is how i put it back together though. Great advice and video, I will subscribe now.
Thanks for the video!!! I followed your instructions and fixed the issue with no problems at all. I ordered the heating element and sensors combo for 55 bucks. My sensors where both good after testing them but I figured I should change them since I had everything off. My dryer is working great now and I did not have to pay hundreds of dollars to fix it. From one grown ass man to another thanks for sharing your knowledge. 👍🏻
Yeah, Luis, I've got same problem. Mine is no longer heating, so I'm changing out that unit on bottom right. I am waiting for shipment on Amazon. I plan to change everything too, better than just one sensor and other goes bad soon or soemthing.
Luis M I love you man
Same. For the cost of the whole thing I just replaced the entire assembly.
Raleigh, you are the man! It's easy to see that you've been doing this for awhile. I watched a couple of other videos, but you give such great tips, for instance, opening the top cover. What a great savings of time and effort! You also point out exactly which screws to remove -- huge help! I remember the days before the internet when everything was trial and error, and this job would have taken 3x as long if you weren't there to guide me.
To top it off, you're wearing a "Patriots Club" t-shirt! I grew up in Southern New Hampshire. Natives can get hurt for not being Pats/Sox/Bruins/Celtics fans. :-)
I enjoyed your comments about safety and I agree: there are too many critics out there, and they criticize people that are taking time to help them. As you say. you *are* a "grown ass man" and you don't have to wear safety equipment if you don't want -- this is the U.S.A!
Thanks so much for your effort and expertise. The girls in the house are happy again -- I told them to thank Raleigh!
Peace, brother, and keep up the good work.
This video was genius “I’m a grown ass man”!!! Dude it helped me a ton THANK YOU!!!!! Out of all the Samsung dryer vids this one kicks ass
Pretty good info
Thank you, thank you. Saved me a lot of money not having to buy a new one. Your video made it possible (along with another that showed how to replace a heating coil).
Thanks for the video. All of the extra points really helped. Was able to follow your steps which led to the replacement of the correct part, which was my heating element.
This is my model Samsung dryer. After watching your video I ordered new drum rollers, idler pulley and belt. It was making a horrible grinding noise. Bad drum roller..but replaced all 4 and since I was in there, idler pulley and belt. Your tips on rolling the drum to check the belt etc. were invaluable to me. Took me 4 hours this morning but it is so quiet now you can hardly hear it. I am a 73 yr old woman. $33.55 repair Thanks Again
I’m glad you were able to repair your dryer and thanks for the nice comment
Best Samsung Dryer repair on RUclips! Thank you!
Great video, used it to change the heating element. Saved a ton of money. Thanks Raleigh!
From Ocala Florida, thank you brother.. Same washer, my sister's, same problem.. you helped with my repair child's play..
Great, very thorough video! Thanks for going through the multimeter testing as well!
I really like your laundry room! Very natural and it doesn't matter if your clothes washer overflows. Tough to do the laundry when it's raining!
So true!
thanks for this meticulously made video. The only one I could find for my Samsung model, which does NOT have a service panel in the back to complete the repair from there. I was a bit intimiated at first, but just followed each step you laid out and was able to complete it.
I love this video! Best repair video ever. I love the comments. Good job.
Jus wanted to post and say thanks and express my gratitude. This video made feel like i knew what i was doin. Thanks again!
You're very welcome!
Just fixed my Samsung drier's broken heating element following this excellent video, piece of cake! Thanks Raleigh! Oh and I did cut myself but I just dealt with it. :)
Thank you for this Samsung dryer repair video!
Excellent tutorial dude!
Thank you so much for making this video!
100% helpful!
Thanks again! Have a great day!
I wish I had a man like you in my life, but I guess connecting with you via RUclips is as good as it gets. I did learn a lot.
Amazing video, it helped me so much, best video out there for repairing your dryer ! Props to the author
Who gave this video a thumbs down? This is the best instructional video ever. Walked me all the way through breaking it down and putting it back together. Thanks Raleigh.
This video is great and casual. Can't wait to try this out. Thanks.
I have the same problem ,no heat . Raleigh you just made my Saturday morning coming up that much more easy .Love that out door work shop .I will do the same and with some beers .lol
Thanks for the comment
Excellent video... fixed my dryer with your help.
Thank you for posting this! It was extremely helpful!
thank you soooo much all the way from canada! very much appreciated and we were easily able to fix our problem :)
Using an coarse abrasive on a high current contact is not recommended. The roughened surface will set up a failure in a few years, if not sooner. Go with 1500 grit emory cloth and carefully remove the coating by hand. You should go for a shiny smooth surface which will maximize the surface area and reduce the resistance.
I did one of these today. Its not necessary to remove the drum to replace the heating element. The mounting bracket that holds the front of the heating box can be removed by taking out two screws. Then the box will easily come out through the front. The wires are long enough to allow this and then you can unplug the wires with the box outside of the dryer. Unless the drum has to be removed for some other reason its easier to do it this way.
lol 😂
Man, you are freakin' awesome! No crap and well explained!
Great video, I have a similar model and your info was spot on! I had to replace the heating element but that was as easy as removing 11 screws and throwing out the bad element and replacing it. I checked the continuity on the two sensors and they were good so I was sure it was the element and it was. I ordered the element from a company for under $20 free shipping out of Arizona on Thursday and it arrived near KC MO. on Sat! I also took the opportunity to clean out my exhaust tubing as it was filled with lint. I will now check it twice a year just to be sure to reduce the chance for a fire or air flow resistance. Nice job Raleigh thanks for making this fix easy and very affordable!
Any chance you'd share where you got your replacement element from? I'm to the point I've figured out it is bad now I need to find the right part
amazon
THIS GROWN ASS MAN KNOWS HIS SHIT! thanks Raleigh!
Awesome video! Very easy to follow and took me straight to the problem.
Thanks for the video. It was very helpful in fixing my 6 year old dryer.
WE did!....THANK YOU SO MUCH!....WE SAVE BUNCH OF MONEY....THANK YOU SR.!
thanks for the awesome video. just ordered the $6 part to fix my wife's dryer instead of paying for the $150 repair.
great video. Was a lot of help. I unfortunately didn't own a multimeter and believed the element was bad. Put in a new element but still got no heat. After getting a multimeter today, I get no continuity from the rear most fuse. Just ordered a new one of those and a new pully because mine looks like yours did, all chewed up and not moving. Hope that will solve it. Thanks for posting this.
Thanks a lot for the video! Dryer works perfect again!
Thanks a lot man I successfully replaced my defective thermal fuse because of you! 🙏👍
Thank you. Excellent how-to.
Great video, I'm having some issues with mine drum not turning. Going to take it apart and check the pulley. 👍
Thanks, you showed me how to get to the blower part with ease. Found a sock stuck in it.
I gotta say you are awesome! Thank you so much for this video :) you made everything so easy and simple.
You're welcome!
What a great video. I've worked on Whirlpool manufactured washers for 15 years but have avoided Samsung and LG's because I've had more Whirlpools than I could handle. Well today I picked up a two year old Samsung dryer identical to the one in this video ($50) and ...ah crap, how does it come apart? Thank you Raleigh so much for your video. These machines are so much like four roller Whirlpool dryers they could be first cousins. Just different enough to make them interesting and frustrating if you don't know where to start. Thanks again.
Cheers, Neill from Oregon.
You are a life saver. Thank you!
And yes, great description and video...thanks!
You’re a great teacher!
I would have loved to find your video when I took my Samsung steam moisture sensor he dryer apart to find issues! So I’d just like to say GREAT VIDEO 😍😃
Thanks I appreciate your comment
Thanks for the video! Got mine to work 👍🏽
Yo so you saved me obviously a new dryer when my pulley ceased up....then again when the thermostat went out.... then again last week the heating element went out.... I bookmarked this and hit it again, fixed dryer in an hour or 2 and the damn thing is working better than when it was new. Thanks bro wicked helpful
I appreciate to comment my friends
Thank you, sir! My model is slightly different, but close enough - one screw less and some differences in electrical connectors. And in my case the heater was burned. Still your instructions were super helpful: easy to follow, very practical and pointing out things that are easy to miss or forget. Did not prevent me from forgetting to connect all the heater, thermostat and thermistor leads, putting the dryer together, and wondering why I still have no heat :-). But that's just my stupidity.
I really like that your instructions include removing the drum. I watched another video in which they took out the heater assembly with the drum in place. I feel that doing it that way and especially putting it back in would be really difficult, time consuming, and - with all that sheet metal - blood loss would be significant.
Thanks again.
Oh and one more thing - mine is almost 10 years old and going strong. It's a bit noisy now but until the heater burned last weekend nothing bad ever happened.
"should've charged that battery up a little more" - you crack me up. thanks for the helpful video.
I know it's been years since this video but thank you for the Walk through
Very informative. Thank you!
Great video!! Thank you so much!!
Best video on this repair. You made it simple, thanks.
Thank you
Thanks again for your video. Just finished replacing the heater and a frozen idler like you had. Works perfectly now. 👍
Thanks so much for this tutorial!! 👍🏻👌🏻
5:30 Plug for door switch: "Just pull it apart, It may be hard if it has not been removed before." It might be impossible, I had to cut the wires, remove the switch assembly and pop the cover off the connector then use a flat blade screw driver to pry the plug apart it was ridiculous! I put petroleum jelly on it to get it to work easily. The rest of the repair was easy thanks to your excellent video. They should make the engineer who designs these things work on several production units to make sure the do a better job.
I needed a good laugh thanks
👍 thanks clear and to the point help me immensely thank you
Hi thank you for the video. Any tech tips on how to trouble shoot the main board. All my safeties test good as well as my heating element.
Great Video. Thanks for posting.
Question: What could happen if one forgets to reconnect the moisture sensor?
Thanks for the video helped me out.
Thanks bra! Just what I was looking for!
Great video! Where do you typically buy your parts? I believe my belt broke so I need to order a new one. Thank you for taking time to make this video.
Man your video is so easy to use.... saved me $900
Same thing was wrong with mine pulley wheel. Thanks so much
Thank you very much saved me a lot of confusion!!!!
Great video - love the safety comment. This guy is brilliant and entertaining. Who needs a camera man...
Great video, I do wish you would have moved your camera to see the belt installation. I appreciate your knowledge and understanding of mechanical appliances. I like that you explain the most common failures, what to look for and how to fix them. Good Job.
@@BayouRepairGuy can you please tell me the name of the tool you used to screw the pulley?
Great video. This helped me fix thermal fuse replacement issue. One thing I missed was not keeping track of the front of the drum. I ended up reversing the drum. So the belt mark appeared about 1/4 inch further. However, the operation seemed to be fine. It looks like the belt does not go in the center of the drum. It is about 1/4 inch off. Hopefully, this will no cause any wear issue. BTW, I was able to find the right thermal kit on Amazon. It was delivered overnight using Prime. It only cost me $15. Thanks Raleigh!
Thanks for your comment and the drum can go either way
@@BayouRepairGuy Thanks for the confirmation about drum position. Initially, I was concerned.
Great video... thank you
Hi ... my first time trying to fix anything!... I have the same model dryer , but the color of the wires connecting to the assembly differs from yours. Should I connect mine back the way it was or follow yours? Thanks ! And love your sense of humor . 🤗
Great video. You can tell a true maintenance guy, safety gloves ,we don’t need no stinking safety gloves. OSHA and the government have decreed that everything must be 100% safe. Nothing is 100% safe. The reason I retired from electrical maintenance in the plants. So much safety crap you couldn’t do a job being covered in safety crap.
You are Something Else my man! I got a giggle or two... Any ways... I will drink a beer on your behalf! Articulated you are... and you saved me some cash... talk about price gauging by local repairman... it was the thermostat...
Saved me $200! Thanks!
Like the answer suck it up and Deal with it”
My Samsung dryer broke, 4 years old. Coil burned out. Fixed it myself works better than when it was new. Used a aftermarket coil . That claims it’s better than others due to materials it’s made from
Aftermarket heating element are really good quality. I just switched my laundry equipment out for Speed Queens
Thank you so much! Ended up being a $6.00 part from Amazon and it's back up and running today! Much Appreciated!
Go viral dude! Semper Fi
Great video thanks And Go Pat's like the shirt
What tool did you use to cut the wire and how did you cut it since that part was done off camera i didn’t see . I purchased the metal pieces to replace the one that burnt but not sure what other tools i need to complete the job
Good afternoon Great video very clear demo, how to. I have a question, at 0:44 you talk about the clips that has to be released. My dryer has a broken clip. Any idea what they are called, would you know the part number? No one knows what I'm talking about when I try to explain to them what I need. Can you help me out?
Wish me luck, going in!
To get the top up just open the door and then punch up on the lip with the heel of your hand on each side, it pops free easily.
Few people have done similar things to pop the top....lol
Raleigh nice video. Brother I have checked all three parts in the bottom unit for continuity they look OK - what could the problem be?
Shoud l I still replace the unit? Please help!
Great job bro. I like it best when you say ,If you cant work on a Samsung,there is something wrong with you!! lololol hahaha ty excellent 100-100
Great video, thanks. Same issue for our Samsung and I was trying to find out if there was a "better" pulley replacement available, one with better bearings that should last longer than the OEM piece of junk that has caused so many issues. I see you used a Supco DE882C, is that a good one? Not sure if I should get the entire assembly or just the new pulley and put it on the existing arm? Also going to order a new belt even though the original is still intact. The belt part number is 6602-001655 (92 inches) if anyone is interested. Again, great job!
The red wire is supposed to go to the top terminal then the 2 blue jumpers; one goes to the bottom terminal on the element and the other to the top terminal of the hi-lo resistor. The 2 black jumpers go on the bottom of the hi-lo and bottom of the thermostat terminals. The blue return wire goes to the top of the thermostat completing the circuit. The blue wire that was fried was on the top terminal of the element that's why it was burnt possibly.
The wires going to the heating element can actually be reversed. The element is a resistive component with AC flowing through it so which wire is connected to which terminal really doesn't matter.
Thank you!!!
Raleigh Jones You save me of couple hundreds.
Hi Raleigh. Greetings from Peru. My frigidaire dryer DE500ADW5 overheats and the power to the heating element is not turned off . Besides , the wires and terminals to te heating element are getting chared. What coud be the problem?
