Man I gotta give you bigtime thanks for this disassembly video. Great instructions that were clear, and you took the time to show all steps instead of skipping ahead. My two year old LG decided to be sad and a power surge fried the two circuit boards in the front panel. The repair tech said it'd be $600 to replace them. I watched your vid and it helped me get to where the boards are. I'm going to buy the parts myself and swap them out. Saved me at least $200. Awesome job dude!
Thank you very much for the feedback! It helps our channel a lot and get the word that this video is very helpful! Good luck with the project! Thank you very much again
Just wanted to thank you so much for this video! Spent the day trying to fix the dryer (bad rollers) with zero luck getting the front panel off because of the Steam tray. Really appreciate people like you who put this stuff out knowing few will watch it!
Dude! This has been the BEST explained video I've seen on the internet! You rocked it! I have a LG DLEX7177WM Dryer and I've noticed that the clothes sometimes are still DAMP! I am gonna change this Heating Element Assembly and while I have it opened I'll replace the Drum Belt and the Moisture Sensor (Both are Cheap) while I have the machine opened! Thanks again for the excellent job explaining it to us! 👍
@@cbatilo Update! Just finished overhauling my LG Dryer! Replaced the Heater Element and while I had everything apart, Replaced the Drum Belt and the Humidity Sensor! Assembled everything back just like you explained to us and...Bada Bing! I'm back in Business for about $120.00! Thanks again for an AWESOME VIDEO! 👍
Thanks man! I just replaced my Thermistor and Thermostat by by using your video. I'm pretty sure I also replaced either my door latch or my pump on my LG washing machine a few years ago with your video. I can tell by your accent and the way you say, "There you go".
Thank you so much! Your video was instrumental in helping me get my LG dryer up and running again because the front panel and electrical was the same. You did a great job guiding us through the disassembly and the reinstallation, you're a beast! I have the gas version and had to replace a couple of parts. I was able to disconnect the control panel cables connecting to the motherboard but I broke the securing clip on couple of connectors in the process. I just used tape to secure the connectors to prevent them from coming loose with vibrations. The hardest connector was the red one, you have to press it in from underneath to pull it out.
Thanks for the instruction video. I have a 2014 DELX8000V. Most all the steps were exactly the same and I was able to replace the heating element. I tested the thermostat, thermal fuses and high-temp with a multimeter and all components were working. This obviously concerned me so, I tested the motor as well. Everything appeared to be good to go. Then I noticed another thermostat on the blower motor component. That one failed. I changed it. Took the extra time to vacuum out and clean out all the dust, lint, and wipe down everything since the machine was basically disassembled. Reassembled everything and now the dryer is working better than it has in years.
Dude, this video was amazing! First time I have ever dismantled a dryer and there is no way i would have been able to do it without the help of this video. Only took my 6 hours or so, but heat has been restored and now I know how to take apart my dryer. Time for a cold beer now. Thanks again!
Excellent disassembly instruction. Impressive video style, no overly long sections, no knowledge gaps, all challenges covered; straight and to the point. Everybody this video is better than the many others i have watched. cbatilo you have great skill. Thank you.
Your step by step video was exceptional and easy to understand. I purchased the part from Amazon and did this exact same LG Steam Dryer heating unit replacement. It works perfectly and saved money but the feeling of accomplishment for something totally outside my skill set is just amazing. Thanks for providing this instructional information.
Thank you very much for watching and taking the time to leave a feedback. Really appreciate it. Great job getting your dryer up and running again! Awesome to hear
Thank you so much for this video! I'm pretty mechanically inclined but never worked on a dryer before. I figured it would take some significant disassembly, but wasn't sure how much. Got my heating element replaced and back in business. Thanks again!
A great video. I loved the detail, it allowed me to do it step by step without confusion. Not to mention saving yhr cost of some tech to makers house call. This took me a long time as I was pretty tight on laundry room space but otherwise it went really well. Thanks for making such a good video. 👍
Man thank you so much for this. My dryer is exactly the same. Was able to follow this step by step. My problem was leaving the dryer in the laundry room which is like an 8x10. It was not enough room, to say the least 😂
Wow. thats the best fix-it video I have ever seen. Mine has a slight vibration type of noise - but having seen this I'll not bother to pull it all apart until worse.
Yessir great DIY! We have an LG Tromm and although there are a few minor differences this video was perfect. You reiterate each step and showed what to do very well. Thank you very much for taking the time and saving us $!
Very Very good video. Maybe you should put steam tray in description because i have a gas model and the disassembly videos i first found were for the units without steam tray which makes it look more complicated thanks
Excellent video thanks for posting that. I only have one question, my original thermostat, the one furthest to the back has 3 connectors but the new one they sent only has 2. And since the third wire is in a wiring harness I'm not going to just let it flap in the wind. or can I?
Hey man I change the heating element on my dryer and it got hot one day and then the next time I used it it didn’t get hot. Do you know what else it can be?
Excellent video. I've got a Kenmore 79680441900 model dryer that is built by LG and aside from a few tiny differences in appearance, the guts are exactly alike. This video got me back up and running for about $140 for the new OEM heating element. Your step by step instructions were well detailed and clear. Great job! Thank you.
the washer version of this thing bout exploded in my house. lots of water damage. shock absorber broke as well as a suspension spring. and of course it just kept going... insurance went after LG and they settled. 5 grand in damages.. wood floor and water don't mix
The hardest freaking part is the control panel and you skipped right through it. I can’t get mine off. I can’t seem to life it up an out. The right side doesn’t wanna separate from the lower section. Yes I took out the screw
The design of these is to get people to throw it away. Its Absolutely rediculous to have to disassemble the whole dryer just to replace the most common part failure of a dryer. THEY PUT AN ACCESS DOOR FOR A FILTER ON THE WASHER BUT ELIMINATED THE FRONT ACCESS PANEL FOR THE HEATER ON DRYERS. JUST FUCKING BRILLIANT !

@@cbatilo The vendor told me that the thermostat with a 3 terminal spade was no longer available and to use an adapter to turn a one terminal into 2. I tried it and it works but am I setting myself up for problems over time. Thanks.
You helped me today!!!!! Husband is away for work and I fixed the dryer! Woohoooo!
Thanks, I only ended up with ONE bonus screw when I was done, which is a HUGE improvement for me!

I have the same dryer, where did you get your heating element part from? If you can remember 😅

Great help. Just did mine thanks to your video. Saved me a lot of money for a repairman.
You and I changed all the sensors in my LG dryer in lock step. Play- Pause-Play-Pause. Thanks for the help.

Nice job. I have an LG dryer model DLEX3470V with steam.the steam cycle is not working. Any idea what may be wrong? Any idea what i should try?
My dryer is not heating, but how did you know is the heater ? How you figured out? I don’t want change it if I’m not sure what exactly is the problem

I would return and get a replacement part… it will delay your project but doing it properly with the part you need.

I tried it and it works but am I setting myself up for problems over time.
