    Thanks for showing very clearly how to depress the tabs to pry open the lid. Videos by others did not clarify this. This is the hardest step in the whole process. Again thanks.

    This video is short, concise and straight to the repair! I was lucky enough to find my dryers problem before I found this video. With $9, 24 hours, self-labor, sweat and this video, I was able to fix my dryer and will be using it until I find the next mistake (hopefully it is a LONG time).
    Thank you!!!

    This video saved me from a call to my home warranty company and a $75 fee...this video was very easy to follow. It only took a few minutes to install. The part was less than $30 dollars. Now I'm looking forward to using my dryer for many more years (Purchased in 2005).

  • @nevetsrellim
    @nevetsrellim 8 лет назад +1

    Thanks! Very easy fix. Video tutorials are great. A few years back our dryer wasn't heating at all and we paid a repairman quite a bit and I watched what he did and the part he replaced and said to myself "I can do that...and for a lot cheaper too" Now if there is air but no heat I know what to do. Last year, there was no power to the dryer and I found a video that said the fuse was most likely the culprit and it was and I fixed that for the cost of the inexpensive part and now this! Appreciate the info on this video!

  • @Workfromhomeguy1471
    @Workfromhomeguy1471 Год назад

    Great, concise video. I bought the part and installed it myself in a short time. The trickiest part and the part of the exercise that took the longest, was prying open the top. You have to insert the putty knife at just the right height or you would be pressing under the tab. Although he clearly showed this in the video, it still took me some time to get it right.

    This is the most awesome video ever! My dryer door switch broke the other day. I guess I'm lucky it broke in a way it thinks my door is closed all the time so I can still use it but the light doesn't work now because it's connected to the switch. Anyway, thanks for the video especially since I can't afford a repairman and don't need one after seeing how easy it is. I will definitely search your site for the part.

    Great Video!!! I was about to start looking for a new dryer until I read that a dryer should last about 10-12 years. Had a clue it was the door switch because for 2 weeks the clothes kept tumbling even with the door open until it died completely. Found the correct Whirlpool switch (3406107) by looking it up on appliance parts pros link. Dryer door switch was $5.97 on Amazon. Took me about 15 minutes with the wonderful instruction on this video.Thanks so very, very much!!!

  • @jayneamsden3988
    @jayneamsden3988 8 лет назад

    My dryer worked intermittently and I could not figure out why until I found the switch had broken half way so the door would hit the switch, thus making the dryer start, but as the clothes turned the load would soon press against the door just enough that the switch would release, shutting off the dryer
    . This video made replacing the switch a breeze- thank you!
