I am a 55 year old women and this video helped me along with my brother to repair my own dryer. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

@lvmykdz5724 2 дня назад

I can't thank you enough for taking the time to teach others. I've watched your video two times to repair my Samsung dryer. I appreciate you and your willingness to help others.

@amandag535 3 года назад

I JUST did the all by myself. Yes, I’m a women lol. My husbands been working insane hours so I surprised him and actually FIXED IT! I can’t thank you enough for the video.

@nakela2 3 года назад

I'm about to fix mine tomorrow too! We can do just as good, if not better. 😆 🤣

@jenniferdavis8834 2 года назад

I have done everything he did, except front of drier at the bottom seems to be attached still. Wondering if there were more screws at bottom or are there latches? He didn’t show that part in vid so I’m wondering if there’s goop in there sealing it together… the top of my drier had rusted a little and I had to take knife to separate…

@sailorpoon Год назад

i’m going to work on mine soon too 😐 my mom said it would cost us $150 just to have it diagnosed and i went 😌 call me handyman

@Dipp182 Год назад

Plural? Or singular?

@kellyharcrow821 Год назад

Female here that so appreciates your video! Fixed it all by myself! Very great explanation in detail. I numbered the screws and placed them on a post-It note (1,2,3...) I took a picture of the numbered post it note on the dryer where the screw went to know exactly where the screws went back. #feelingtough

@ScottBlomfield 6 лет назад

Perfect video - every other samsung dryer video had a front mounted panel, and the top came off quite differently. Really appreciate the step-by-step disassembly - spot on for my dryer. Thank you!

@maniafsari2949 3 года назад

I've used your video to fix my dryer twice. This is the definition of high quality step by step instructions. Thank you!

@reddoorpost 3 года назад

Thanks Matt! I watched a dozen videos trying to find the one that made the most sense without needless steps and then I saw yours that starts out just popping the top up instead of removing all kinds of screws in the back. What a time saver. You made my day.

@williamofy6376 5 лет назад

yea, I bought both washer and dryer same issues. My wife loved them and it worked fine, but at two years, started having issues with washer, out of balance issues. Luckily, it was a recall so paid nothing for repairs/replacement. Now, we have the same issues with the dryer idler arm making a lot of noise. Replaced it. fixed, but am feeling ripped off now. Our last "cheap" washer and dryer lasted over 15 years, never had any issues. We were young and couldn't afford any "good" washer and dryers back then. Survived five major moves across the US and back. Never an issue other than dents and dings from moving so much. Decided to buy what we thought were better and higher end washer dryer set and it turned out to be just cheap, poorly made Korean junk. Lesson learned. Thanks Samsung. Buying only American again.

@ernestthebo5441 4 года назад

Our situation was largely the same as yours. We bought what we thought was a better washer dryer and it's been an expensive pain. Apparently, this idler pulley problem is common on this dryer, based in internet searches. Called Samsung's support line. They were as useless as teats on a boar hog and denied any problems with the idler pulley Went through the same recall as you on the washer and then the dryer quit 3 months after our 3 year extended warranty expired. I'm going back to the old style simple agitator washer when the washer quits.

@ises1970 4 года назад

Exact same situation we bought the pair and after about three years they are trash , because of them I made sure not to buy Samsung for my refrigerator or stove

@allthingsdiana6701 4 года назад

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Even a 60 year old woman can repair her own dryer thanks to your video. I was told by a technician that it would cost me roughly $250.00 to repair the problem. He said he thinks he knew what was wrong and that's what it would cost me. Well yeah he knew, you said here that this dryer is notorious for this problem. Giving the time of season, I was REALLY Not happy to hear that, and then I found you. You saved my Christmas!!! God bless you kind sir for this very useful and easy to follow instruction. Also thank you for the link to replace the part with a GOOD replacement!!

@oneproudpappa 3 года назад

So awesome to hear the elderly not only avoided being taken advantage of but fixed it herself! You rock!

This video was perfect. My husband was able to fix it in under an hour. Thank you so much. Saved us $200!

@walterscott1981 4 года назад

Just followed this one step by step, and it is or was perfection. Fixed my dryer and I am so grateful for this video.

@ElvisandPluto 5 лет назад

Thank you, I had the same exact issue. This video gave me the courage I needed to tear my dryer apart..

@cyndituschinski6269 4 года назад

Thank you!! You saved me!! I'm a mom of 5 who must get laundry done. I was able to do this myself and it worked perfectly (the same exact issue and my dryer is only a couple of years old too) This video is PERFECT!! thanks again!!

@MeDD512 4 года назад

It's now 2020 and this video is STILL spot on! Thanks Matt, I took my Samsung apart in about 10 minutes and mine was like yours, burned and came apart. My part will be here in less than two days. Thanks again!

@cyrusthevirus5350 6 лет назад

Matt, thanks for the video bro! You saved my family some headache and some dollars!!! Your clear instructions made it super easy to dismantle and put back together my dryer. My idler pulley was gone! And somehow my motor wasn't spinning at all. So I decided to take a look at the blower wheel, and found out a baby sock was stuck in there, and was keeping the wheel from spinning. Hence the motor too was stuck. I removed the sock, and since I already had the dryer completely open - Thanks to your instructions - I decided to clean EVERYTHING!. I even applied some lithium grease to the motor as well. Everything is back to normal. The dryer is running just like on day 1. Thanks again!

@emkkahn 5 лет назад

THANK YOU!! I've had this same problem twice now. But this time I used the ball bearing roller so hopefully this was the last time... Your video has been the best I've seen as far as getting the dryer apart and back together again.

@michaelolivas100 2 года назад

Matt, A year ago I used your video to replace the idler pulley. This time I used it to replace all of the drum rollers. I got a few details from other videos on the drum roller part. Your video is so detailed at taking this dryer apart and putting it back together. Thank you again!

@erikakauffman7756 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for posting this! Your instructions were excellent and our dryer is running perfectly. Much appreciated!

@kalleypeacock7302 Год назад

Thanks for the video and the links to the parts. When I got it opened up yesterday, it looked like you had taken a picture of the inside of my dryer. Made my life a lot easier. My husband and I both have covid right now, and it was awesome that I didn't have to spend a lot of energy looking for the parts. Amazon delivered it this morning, and I'm already up and running again. Thank you!

@imwilling 4 года назад

You saved my life!!! I followed your video step by step and you made it a breeze! I never would have a clue how to take it apart. You saved me a FORTUNE with the amazon link, I checked the online appliance parts places and they wanted $40. PLUS this was a ball bearing pulley. for $10.00. Incredible video, I just cannot thank you enough!!!

@rltor529 5 лет назад

Thanks for the video. It was a great help. Ordered the part as you described and fixed my dryer without paying a technician a few hundred dollars to do the same. It was an easy fixed with the exception of tying the belt. It took me a bit longer to figured out a way to put the belt in place. Thanks again for the video.

@coreywilliams8225 4 года назад

Mine did the same thing and wouldn't have known how to do it without this video. Thank you

@sammywong6349 4 года назад

Thanks for posting. Followed your directions and 50 mins later my dryer is fixed. No more squeaking.

@AJMJr910 4 года назад

Thank you for making this video! My dryer was making the exact same noise and this video helped me fix my dryer! Saved me what I can only imagine would've been a lot of money on appliance repair or needlessly replacing my dryer! I replaced the belt, the pulley, and 2/4 drum wheels. 2 of them I could easily get to and it was clear the bearings were worn, they had grease leaking from them. The other two were in pretty good shape anyway - still spun freely. Thanks again!

@robertherrick7452 5 лет назад

This video was a one stop shop to fix my dryer including the part links. Thanks man!

@adriennewaeschle6033 4 года назад

Thank you so much for sharing this video ... the beginning where you showed the sound it was making helped us make a correct diagnosis on our dryer problem ... and replacement was so easy.

@keithevans4313 4 года назад

Thank you Matt. Followed the process to disassemble, checked the rollers, bushing, pully and everything was fine, Fortunately found only that a nickle had lodged itself between the drum and case so the repair was much easier, but you just saved me $$. I really appreciate.

@jennifermauzy2594 4 года назад

Thank you so much for this video. I thought my belt had broke and had no idea how to disassemble this dryer. The idle pully was the issue and thanks to your video I was able to fix this on my own spending just under $12 for the part. Saving this video for future reference. Again, thank you so much!

@davidkling4663 4 года назад

Thanks for the fine video. I had to disassemble my daughter's Samsung dryer after she moved to a different home. Your excellent directions made the task very easy. It turned out that nothing was broken in the machine but it did have a lot of lint, dirt, coins, etc that had gotten in the fan which I removed. I then vacuumed out the whole interior and reassembled it. Ran like a new dryer.

@majorjc 5 лет назад

After watching your video I headed to the laundry room. I had my worn out pulley in my hand in about 8 minutes and then headed to my local appliance parts store. They wanted $58 for the pulley! I told them to keep it and came back home and ordered the one from Amazon. Even if I have to replace this every year or so (my original lasted 26 months) that amazon price is a good deal. Thanks for the video!

@maelstrommerciful2372 5 лет назад

I have the same dryer with the same problem, and you probably just saved me hundreds for a little more than an hours worth of work.

@BertMcCallumG 6 лет назад

Matt, this was a fantastic video. Followed what you did exactly and changed out the pulley today!

@kevindomkoski418 5 лет назад

@hilliarejones714 4 года назад

Very helpful! Me, my mom, and step dad just took apart our Samsung dryer piece by piece at 1am just by following your video! My string to my robe got caught somehow in the drum. We we’re afraid that we’d have to buy a new one and we’ve only had this one for around 2 years. It was tedious trying to pull it out but we got it done and put everything back, now it’s spinning again! Thanks ❤️

@brittanyjohnston13 4 года назад

Thank you so much for this video! The exact same thing happened to our dryer. I ordered the replacement part and will be able to fix it on my own once it comes in.

@kencarpenter8246 5 лет назад

Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time to do this. Also, watch those sharp metal edges !! Mine has some blood on it now.. lol.

@mariamaqsoodkhan4402 2 года назад

Thank you for this extremely resourceful video. I could never have imagined doing such a daunting task on my own but your video, along with another one on RU-vid, had my dryer behaving within no time and saved me $$$

@robertscottiv4704 3 года назад

Thank you for the video! Almost scrapped our dryer thinking the repair would be as much as a new one. $30 on Amazon for parts and your video and I'm back in business.

@TimothyStedman 3 года назад

You, sir, are a legend. This dryer has some serious design flaws, and it's my second Samsung dryer with unusually low parts durability. Thanks to you, the maintenance was really straightforward. 🤓👍 I replaced my squeaky tensioner pully, but also discovered a couple failing roller bushings. They're on the to do list for next time. Thanks again!

@nharris652 6 лет назад

@aarona8732 4 года назад

Thank you much Matt. We will be doing this probably this weekend and really helped out.

@joegates8185 5 лет назад

Very helpful video!!! My Dryer is a little bit different than the one you worked on. However, I was able to use your video to replace the idler pulley and also the belt and four drum pulleys. The pulleys were difficult to remove because I think the assembly was done with power tools. They were very tough to get them off but I succeeded and I’m glad to have fixed it. Dyer is working very well!!!

@jacobgoodnight2629 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for this video it helped walk through step by step to repair my dryer!

@wmwiseman9102 5 лет назад

Your video was spot on. The idler pulley was shot and was positioned on the bottom of the dryer pretty much where yours was. The belt had been running on the pulley shaft since the wheel was gone - I wonder why the belt wasn't thrown when the pulley came off? The black belt shavings were enough to make me order a new belt when I got the replacement pulley. I vacuumed the entire area for lint, dust, etc. The only thing I can add is to make sure the new belt stays straight, groove side against the drum when installing it - mine twisted and was a pain to get straightened when putting it over the idler pulley and onto the drive pulley. When I cleaned out the fan cover, I noticed that the cheap edging material had torn and come off. I used duct tape built up the same thickness to repair the missing material, reassembled and it's all good.

@ernestthebo5441 4 года назад

Thanks for a great video. I start taking my dryer apart tonight.

@edpropst547 3 года назад

Thank you for this video. Diagnosed problem from your video. Ordered part ($11.00) and repaired in 1/2 hour. Thanks again 👍

@chucksanderson8044 5 лет назад

Thank You Matt! Awesome video. Our dryer is only a year old and it started making a high pitched squealling sound. It's a Samsung Dryer Model # DV48J7700EW/A2. I got on-line with a Samsung Tech - via a chat - and asked him what Idler Pulley I needed for our dryer. He recommended part number DC93-00634A. Their parts operation wanted $37 for the part with about a week delivery time. I got on-line with Amazon and found the exact part (upgraded with Ball Bearings) for $14.97 with next day delivery. I received the part today and, with your expert guidance, installed in in about 1 hour. It now works like a champ.

Another thumbs up for the usefulness of this video. LIke many others - it saved lots of $$$ being able to repair myself. The biggest P.I.T.A. was getting the belt around the motor and pulley after the fix.

@IV4Nkc 3 года назад

Thank you for the video, it's exactly what I needed. Mine didn't melt but was still making that sound. I think it just needed some lubricant, though I changed it for a new part. Just saved a couple hundred in service and now I know how to take it apart if I ever need to replace the rollers or belt.

@booboohern 4 года назад

Thank you for your video I going to attempt this myself but I have the DV56 so I hope there the same pulley

@opknox1212 2 года назад

Thank you for playing the noise first. So many videos just start in with a verbal description of the noise, and then the repair, and we don't know if it's the same sound that the dryer we have is making. In my case, the sound is different, and I've already gotten a new motor and drum roller kit, but those replacements did not fix the problem.
