Such an awesome well detailed video which really gave us the confidence to do the job. The zip tie trick was gold. It took us 90 minutes with two people. We just realised you're in Melbourne next time we'll just phone you!

Thanks, our wheels were shredded and flopping around! Replacements on their way, hopefully no further damage done :)

[@askmrwashywashy]

Awesome I’m glad you can fix this

Life saver.. thank you mate 👍

Wish I could get mine sorted! F&P tech been around 4x now, changed motor and something else and it's still making a horrible noise, only problem is, it won't do it when he's here, but I have it on video haha. Have now ordered condenser pump to see if it's that.

Can you please post a video on how to install the front drum bearing glides? I have a fisher and paykel de5060m1 and have pulled it apart, and think I’m missing those parts. But buying them seems risky when I don’t know how to install them. My issue is the drum is sitting not level, causing no gap at the top front and big gap at the bottom front (clothes get caught and cause fire hazard). The dryer does not have rollers, unlike all the other videos I’ve watched- but this great video of yours is the closest match I’ve found to similar internal workings! Great video.

Hi done everything you’ve done and all the parts are in good condition. Dryer making the turn sound just not spinning do you know what it is

Hello mr washy washy my cousins have a fisher and paykel dh8060p1 heat pump dryer and a couple of months ago it started making a tractor noise and we tried a bearing replacement but it was unsuccessful so can you please tell me what could be causing the issue preferably asap

Hi there, I've got the same dryer and get a metal grinding noise when the dryer is operating. The noise is not present when the dryer is cold and I can rotate it by hand. After about 5mins of operation the grinding noise starts and remains. I can't find anything jammed inside or outside the drum, any ideas on what it might be?

Do you know what the problem is when there is a burning smell and its not coming from anywhere obvious? I thoroughly clean he lint filter daily and the large filter/condenser weekly.
Thank you

Do you have a video on the replacement of the idler pulley on the same model as you show in this video?

[@rosssherylkennedy9491]

I just finished replacing both wheels. machine is back together but about 15 seconds after I turn it on, the drum stops and its shows ERR9. I can't find anything online about what that error might be, other than a slight indication its something to do with the heating. But none of the wires are damaged and Ive cleaned the lint filter (and canister). Any ideas? Cheers

[@rickofalltrades7267]

Hi mate, love your vids! I have one of these dryers and the drum seized it looks like the front drum seal (looks like a foam seal) has gotten pinched between the drum and ripped the seal.
Got any vids on this?
And maybe a part number if possible :)
Cheers

[@bobbyt0003]

Any tips on replacing belt and idler pulley??

[@DetectorMods]

Is there a fast way to replace the tension belt wheel?

[@askmrwashywashy]

Umm not really. You need good access to replace it

[@jameskelly5809]

Hi hi, the pin at the back. Is there a bearing there too? Mine is squeaking but it sounds like it’s coming from the rear of the machine..?

[@askmrwashywashy]

Hi. Its a bearing but hard to change. its riveted on there. I think the sound mightt be coming from two sources, fluff buildup on the back of the drum. Where the pin sits on the bearing, the lubricant has worn away, try adding some long life grease there.

[@ms767210]

That looks a horrible machine to service and imagine it's design makes for complicated assembly in the factory as well.

[@artmachineincorporated1961]

Thanks!

[@askmrwashywashy]

Thanks mate appreciate it
