DE150EDH1 Frigidaire Dryer - Instructions

removed top and front of machine. removed drum. replaced shaft, bearing bracket, and support bearing from inside. replaced grrounding ball and clip from outside. reassemble.
this should be available as a kit, and should include high temp grease to put in bearing bracket

I ordered the rear drum assembly on Monday evening and the part came on Wed at 11 am. I started the repair at 1 and finished at 3. It would have been faster, but my computer kept freezing during the repair video. The video was so easy to follow. I could have used longer arms or a helper, but I managed to get the job done by myself. Needless to say, my husband was thrilled. Great service. Thanks

The repair went very well.The biggest problem was the spring on the tension roller when putting back together.But it just takes a little bit of patients and it was fine.Works great now.

Follow instructions all most to the letter. In video it was stated to get an assistant to hold static / housing retainer in place to start screws. I put it in place and, used Duck Tape to hold it there while i started screws. Thanks for the deal on parts and, video. I would also suggest advising to check the nylon strips on felt at the front top. Mine were worn. But there was enough at the back of nylon to remove and, glue remainder in place almost as good as new. Again! ''THANKS!''

followed vidio instruction which made it easy

purchased bearing kit

I followed the instructions in a Youtube video that an individual made with his kids. The only hard part was removing the drum assembly, the rear drum bearing was very difficult to unseat. I had to reattach the front of the dryer to give the drum assembly more support to be able to lift the rear - but overall it was quite easy to figure out disassembly and reassembly of the dryer. There's really not that much to them.

This repair is easy, but somewhat time consuming.The machine is about 30 years old and needed attention beyond replacing the purchased parts. Initially, the rubbing and thumping sound was intermittent. It got progressively louder and more steady, as time passed, until I finally opened it up to see what was happening. The tub was hitting the blower housing. The rear bearing had become so worn that the tub had dropped low enough to come in contact with the housing. While I had the unit apart, I decided to replace the heating element because it was original equipment and I thought it may have lost some of its efficiency. I ordered the parts on Sunday evening. They arrived the following Tuesday at around noon...a mere 18 hours after I placed the order. All the parts I have ever ordered from Partselect.com, and there are quite a few, have come that quickly. Removing the bearing from the drum was the most difficult part. I had to grab the mounting screws from outside the tub with vise grips to crack them loose. The rest of the bearing assembly was very easy, as was the heating coil. The front of the tub rides around a protrusion on the front panel. On that protrusion, there are three plastic "shoes" that the tub rides on. One of them had fallen off. I purchased a high temp glue suitable for use with plastic and metal, glued and clamped the part back in place. Also, some of the felt seal around the door had come loose and I used the same glue to stick that back in place. Vacuumed thoroughly, reassembled the tub, belt (look for the "this side up" stamp on the belt)and front panel. It now works like a new machine and I figure I saved about $350 if comparing this fix to buying a new machine.

I set up my laptop with the partselect video going. Laid out my tools and the individual parts that were in the kit. I watched the video a segment at a time, performing the tasks in the same manner that the instructor did. All together, the process took less than two hours, I had no questions or difficulties, and the repair process went flawlessly and successfully. I had never done anything more complicated on a dryer than replacing the hose before this. The sense of pride in doing a repair of this level myself, and avoiding paying someone ridiculous fees to do it, is beyond description.

Basically followed the You tube videos on standard, stand alone dryers as mine is a stack-able unit. Allow a lot of room to work. Unplug electricity and or the gas, vent hose and water hoses. Start removing screws as per the video, remove Belt then lift up then out the dryer drum. (The drum drops in from above on the back of the unit)the rest is remove and replace as you go. *TIP... I use my phone to photograph tricky areas so I can review as needed. It was more scary then difficult. You can do it!

Replaced rear bearing on back of dryer. Repair cost $20.00 an a little time. Much better then buying a new dryer. It was easy to repair the video instructions were great. I would do it again it needed.

the repair when ok the only problem I had was installing the small white plastic piece in the back without losing the ball bearing .and I also vac up everything inside as well lot of lint

This was a stacked washer and dryer combo and is a lot more difficult to repair, requiring a lot more to take apart and put back together.

I used the video, and it helped me a lot! I got the drum out, installed the new bearing, greased the new shaft and the receptacle, then I reassembled. When I tested it, mine was still very noisy, so I removed the drum once more and cleaned/added some grease on the tensioner bearing. This was the cause of the noise in my case, but the bearing & housing were nearly shot, so something would have given out very soon. I would suggest to grease the tensioner the first time to save time and effort. (And save some of the grease for the tensioner pulley). SAFETY TIP: there was also a ton of lint that got trapped inside the unit!!! Clean your dryer once per year to prevent it becoming a fire trap!

Popped in new catch and used needle nose pliers to squeeze old latch flat and remove from door. New one just popped into place.
