Dryer stopped working and would just make humming sound. Assumed belt was off/stretched so I replaced it and made sure motor shaft moved freely, it did. Still did not work, so I removed drum, plugged it in and tried to start it. Same problem. I spun motor shaft with my foot and it started up… Is the motor bad or is there another component preventing the motor from spinning up on its own?

Bump,
Good Deal,
Thanks for the compliment, we try our best.
Drop us a line anytime.
Can/should I use a lubricant on the belt tension pulley? The old pulley was making a lot of noise, and I suspect the shaft may be marred, though it isn’t obvious. Thanks to you all.
I don’t know how old your dryer is but I just had a similar experience with my Whirlpool Quiet Dry Commercial Quality. Thought it was the belt as it was roaring . Disassembled it put Wd 40 on everything metal and it just got louder. I was an older model and could of been fixed but the shaft was shot plus it needed new felt around the door etc. It only cost my time to try and repair it but make sure to get a friend to help you with the drum they aren’t heavy but they are awkward to do on your own very frustrating. Good luck my friend.
My Maytag french door refridgerator icemaker will not eject the icecubes. I unplugged, heated with hair dryer and plugged back in. It dumped the cubes and refilled and refroze. It will not cycle again. I cannot find a video or detailed instructions to remove the icemaker. The Model # is MFT2771WEM2 approximately 10 years old. The ice maker is at the top left but inclosed in a white plastic Box. I can remove the front cover (has a lever operated cover about 6" x 1 1/2). I can remove a screw at the top right of the motor end of the ice maker but cannot find a screw at the top left. I cannot slide the box out. I need diagnosic help and removal instructions. Thanks
Try this video.
Thanks Thatguy for the video and quick reply but unfortunately my icemaker is not mounted like this. The icemaker looks similar but it is mounted in a plastic assembly that looks like it slides out . There is a front cover that I can remove with a 6”x 1 1/2” slotted door. I can see the icemaker and can remove one screw on the top right of the tray side. It looks similar to the whirlpool ice makers that slides out on two rails. My Maytag model # is mjt2771wem2. I have found no videos, images or instructions on line that show what I have. The cubes freeze but will not eject. I unplugged, heated the cubes with a hair dryer, plugged back in and it ejected, filled and froze but would not eject. I would like to take it out to diagnose or replace. I need Instructions on how to remove, diagnose or replace. Any help on this model would be appreciated.
