What's Actually Wrong With It?

Select your Dryer issue below, and I'll tell you what I usually see when I open these up in Pointe Aux Trembles.

Diagnostic Report: Noisy Thumping

Failed Component

Drum Glides

Mechanical Fault

The felt or Teflon pads holding up the front of the drum have worn completely away.

My Solution

I lift the drum out and rivet or glue new glide pads onto the front bulkhead to stop the scraping.

⚠️ Disclaimer: This is not DIY advice. Modern appliances utilize lethal high-voltage circuits. Diagnostics and repairs should only be performed by a Trained and Certified Appliance Service Technician.

Should I Fix It Or Toss It?

My honest advice on the lifespan of your Kenmore Dryer. Expand below.

Washers & Dryers

✓ Fix It: Clogged drain pumps, snapped dryer belts, burnt thermal fuses, or bad door latches. These are simple, fast, same-day fixes.

✕ Replace It: If a front-load washer sounds like a jet engine on spin cycle and it's over 8 years old, the rear tub bearing is shattered.

Try This Before You Call Me

I don't want to come out for a 5-minute fix you can do yourself. Check these first:

  • 🔌 Power: Check your home's main breaker panel. Sometimes it just tripped.
  • 🔒 Controls: Make sure the "Child Lock" button wasn't accidentally held down.
  • 🌀 Dryer Vent: Go outside and make sure the vent flap isn't choked with lint.

⚠️ DIY Danger Warning

Do not open up the machine if you aren't trained. Modern appliances are dangerous.

  • ⚡ High Voltage: Electric ranges and microwaves hold lethal capacitor charges even when unplugged.
  • 🌊 Flooding: Messing with dishwasher pumps improperly can flood your entire kitchen or the condo below you.

Kenmore

Kenmore didn't build their own machines; they were made by Whirlpool, LG, and Frigidaire. I cross-reference the 3-digit prefix on your model number (like 110 or 795) to find out exactly who built it, so I can source the right original factory part.

FIELD NOTE FROM BOB, 50-YEAR VETERAN

Overheating & Clogged Vents

"Dryers in Pointe Aux Trembles that spin but don't heat often have a tripped thermal safety. This is almost always caused by restricted airflow in the wall duct."

The Right Parts Make the Repair

We don't mess around with cheap aftermarket knock-offs. If we fix your Kenmore Dryer, we use genuine OEM parts. They fit right, and they last.
