Thank you so much for this awesome video!! It was detailed and easy to follow along. I loved that you included the part number. I ordered exactly what you suggested and was able to repair my dryer for less than $35!!!! I saved a ton of money and time going back and forth to the coin operated dryer. It was even cheaper than my home warranty deductible. Thank you, thank you, thank you! 🙏🏾
Thank you so much for your great detailed directions. I was able to follow every step you said easily and clearly and fixed the dryer for less than $36. A friend told me they spent around $400 for the service call, inspection, parts, and labor. I appreciate this video so much. Great job!
Wow!! Our Epic Maytag dryer stopped heating last Sunday. We've had it for 12 years and assumed it would be expensive to repair and might have to buy a new one. Came across your video on Monday and ordered the part from Amazon for $34.00; gotta say I didn't expect much for that price but when the part arrived, we installed it easy-peasy and were back in business by Thursday! Thank you so much for this video and for walking us through the "HOW" step by step. Much appreciated.
I had came across your video and I truly appreciate your instructions how to replace heating element. I mean you described it step by step so well. You’ve save me a few hundreds dollars. Thank you!
This is awesome. I keep getting these positive comments. I am so glad I could help. I need to get more videos like this out there to help more people. Thanks for the view.
Best repair video. Was able to replace the heating element with your step by step instructions. Other TH-camrs should follow you. No BS, straight to repair. Great Job and thank you.
Thanks a lot! I just repaired my Maytag Epic Z. Some of the specifics were different, but your video gave enough info to guide me through the process. Much appreciated!
@@LCKevinE Bro. This is awesome. I’ll be looking for my check in the mail. Lol. 😂 Just kidding. This is what I love to hear. Good job on DIY fixing your dryer and thanks for the view and the comment.
We did it, except for the thermostat was different , we couldn't use the one that came with the parts, the element was cracked so hopefully it will be ok without replacing the thermostat 🤞
You are awesome for doing this, especially after you already did yours. I have to do this job later and it's greatly appreciated. Ugh, not looking forward to it but this will definitely help. Your detail and step by step will make it so much easier. Thank you so much!!!
Great to hear this. I love these comments. So glad I was able to help another person. I greatly appreciate your comment and for supporting the channel.
@@MattFreytag well I am attempting to do it now and for some reason my whole heating element case won't come out. It seems like it's attached to something in the back. Hmm. So aggravated.
I was about to comment on the very detailed video as well. Some just get on and go thru the motions and be like, “take these screws out then this, then you yank er out n put er back in like at right there, then plug er back up n we good!” 😂😂😂 ummm nah, we ain’t good boss! You did a hell of a job though.
I appreciate the video. Gonna replace mine tomorrow. This was actually a whole lot easier than I thought it would ever be. Well, I’ll let you know that after tomorrow😂
What a well explained video. What happens when you have a drawer on the very bottom of the dryer? Do I have to remove the drawer first? Mine has a drawer on the very bottom.
Thank you for the kind comment. I really don’t know about the drawer without seeing it. I would assume just to remove it as-well. Hopefully you can find a video on that model.
We did it. It worked. We didn’t move the drawer at the bottom. We did have trouble putting back the heating box since it had the rib on top that somehow had to get into the hole but finally worked. Thanks for your detailed explanation.
Thank you so much sir. You are a life saver. Would you know where i could find replacement parts for the red wires that connect to the thermostat and the element?
I looked didn't find anything else. Your the man and if you made it I should be fine. Spot on video on Maytag dryers I'm changing out mine this weekend. Thanks again
@@MattFreytag , thank you. In case anyone asks, I figured it out. The difference is that there is a back attachment that you just have to wiggle really hard to get loose. It will be hard to get back in, but not sure it is necessary. Other than that, it is very similar. Your video was very helpful.
There is a clip holding it in. You can either rock the assembly around and yank it out (what I JUST did) or maybe take the back panel off and see if you can get at it that way (which may require removing the top and maybe the control panel, not sure) . I yanked it out and a clip fell off. I ignored it, replaced the heating element, cleaned it all out and put it back together. It works. I made sure I jammed it back in real tight and screwed it back down.
@@zeeshandogar9406 yes the just slide on. Like male and female connections. Prob a little hard to get off. Wiggle the connector side to side while lightly pulling.
@@zeeshandogar9406 always take a picture of your wires before removing them. That way you will be able to look and see which wires go where without having to remember. I was lucky enough to have a pic of the inside of my dryer on my phone because I recently put new wheel bearings on and changed the blower wheel. I couldn't remember which wires went where and then I remembered I had a picture from a few months ago!!!
The best instructional video I have EVER seen!

@@wildcatt417 just look for more screws or maybe it’s clipped in to something. Sorry.
@@MattFreytag will do and no need for you to be sorry at all. Thank you!!
@@MattFreytag wish I could post a picture but part of the housing appears to be behind the drum wall. Have u ever seen that before?
Very informative. Thank you. Repaired mine with no problem after watching your video.

Hey Matt any way that I could get shocked changing out the thermal fuse, thermostat and the heating element even if it's unplugged?
Im not sure on that one. Im no expert in that field. Sorry bro!
Thanks for your video, very helpful.
Great. Im glad i could help. Thanks for watching

I believe so

Im not sure. Probably just search online. Glad this helped

Is the 2000 model simliar?
I’m not so sure.
@@MattFreytag it is very simliar i got to taking the front screw off of the element unit and removing wires, but something is catching.
@@MattFreytag it is the same... gonna take it to the shop tomorrow. 😀😀😀
Nice
I have a series 5000. The heater does not seem to pop right out. Any advice?

Great video wish you had detailed which wire and how to remove at 2:57 I couldn't figure it out.
Sorry bro. No way I could remember now. Thanks for watching.

@Cabela-hq8rf your welcome!
Is there a parts number? For this heating element?
I am sorry but I don’t have or know the part number. Thanks for watching.
Good job buddy
Thanks!
I can't tell which wires to remove
Im sorry I really don't remember without being in front of it.
Great video
Soooo I did everything in this video and still no heat😢
Sorry to hear that.

Electric
