I appreciate this video so much. I took our DEGX1 96010-A apart, expecting to find a worn-out filter ring, but it was good as new after 17 years!! Cleaned everything out, reassembled, and am ready to tackle the vent outlet and tubing. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. My husband and I have a 10 year old Fisher & Paykel Washer and Dryer. It recently stopped heating. I did 2 loads of clothes and it dried well, then the third load it kept running and running. When we investigated, the air coming out of the vent was cold. Our dryer has been blowing lint outside for a while now. I ordered the part from an appliance parts site online for $78. When it came we re-watched your video and my husband set out to change the filter and clean it out. It didn't go quite as easily as it did for you, but we changed the old filter, vacuumed it all out, even pulled off the front panel and hit the reset button for the fuse. It worked nicely after! No one in our area carries this brand anymore and NO ONE services them. Thank you again!
My husband and I watched your video and decided to try cleaning the dryer and lint filter. You outlined every step, perfectly, and there is no where else we could have gotten this information. You are absolutely wonderful for sharing this information. God bless you for saving us money and time (without our dryer).
Thank you for taking the time to do this. I have a rub that I was getting ready to look for but this was equally as important because mine is about the same age and has never been changed. Thanks again.
Another big thank you. I was putting the filter in backwards and lint was going all over the place. People like you make the world (and the internet) a better place!
thank you for an excellent demonstration on how to replace the lint filter. My Fisher & Paykel dryer is also 7 years old and now we have a much better idea of how to change out the filter.
Thank you so much for posting this video! We've owned our F&P dryer for years and never knew that lint could build up internally past the filter. You may very well have saved us from a disastrous house fire!
Thank you so much for posting this most helpful video. I used it to figure out where the plastic piece that holds in the lint cup goes as well as how to replace the wheel. It's nice to know there are wonderful people in the U.S.A. that are willing to take the time to help other citizens. After this horrible day in Dallas where 5 police officers were murdered, I needed to complete a home repair project and feel a sense of peace. Thanks again for your help.
This was very helpful. I just replaced the drum bearing and noticed some lint in the old one. A dryer repairman told me that lint from a defective filter can cause the bearing to go bad, I checked and there was a hole in the filter! This repair will probably give me extended life on the bearing replacement also. Two for one!
Thank you so much! Just finished repairing my dryer, saving couple hundred dollars on a service call. And it only took about 15 minutes. This was a gem!!!!!!!
wow This video really helped me a lot. I am a 49 year old female and have a very limited budget so I tried looking for videos and this was the only one that was able to show me step by step what to do. Thank you very much. You did help me a lot.
ty! Had my dryer since 2008 and never checked or replaced the lint wheel. I used the Thermo gun today and the dryer exhaust reading was only 96 degrees! Just blowing warm air and took over 2 hrs to dry clothes! I guess it is time to check out this lint area. thx again!
Thank you. I did this a few years back and had forgotten how to do it. Your video was great and jogged my memory. I appreciate folks like you that take time to help others. I only wish there were more like you. Kind regards, Neill
Thank you so much for this video. You literally saved me so much money and time. I could not figure out how to get the housing back in and searched all over. You were my lifesaver. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you for the info. My blower wheel broke apart and am hoping to replace it myself. Your info really helped to see where I need to go to get the job done. Keep up the good teaching.
Thank you so much for posting this. I love my Fisher & Paykel smartload dryer and want to keep her in the best shape possible, and you're helping me do just that.
Great video. Thank you so much. One thing I'd do differently is to take the dryer outside and using a leaf blower blow the lint out of it. I just bought a used one of these dryers and without your video I wouldn't have had a clue how to replace the lint screen. Thanks again. Neill
Thanks a lot for this video! Helped me out tremendously and didn't have to pay the repairman another $300 just to vacuum lint out of my dryer. You the man!
Thank you so much! I was really uncertain about DIYing this, but your video was perfect and the instructions and explanation were very clear. Thanks again for being so awesome!
Better tutorial than offered by the repair service technicians. The price for the filter has gone up to $101.00 plus shipping on Amazon. I found it elsewhere on the internet for $65 plus shipping.
Thank you, did not realize it even had a filter!! We'll know I have to spend more money on this machine, going on the 2nd bearing. But they are really good machines!
Wow it was $100 to have a repair guy into the house, no parts, no promises. I can do this. That and the reset button under the front. That was a great view. I will order the part and go for it. Better than $300 for a new cheaper one. Thanks so much.
Thank you so much. You made it look so easy that even I think I can do it. Ordered the filter off Amazon, thanks for the tip. $99 instead of $180 from F&P. Where's my screwdriver? Let me at it.
Interesting going to try this on my 12 year old dryer. One difference on amz vendors , this filter now costs about 115 us dollars. Holes in my filter much smaller but still pushing out a lot of lint.
Happy New Year Raymond...I followed your instructions to the letter, unfortunately, when I removed the Lint Collector Housing, the Dryer Moisture Sensors came off, and I can't get them back on. They're still attached to the wires, I don't know which sensor goes on the top, and which goes on the bottom...Please advise...Thank you.
@@doxmomma979 Hello, I went online and found close-up photos of how I'm supposed to attach the silver sensors. I'm 5'2" so I'm looking down on the sensors instead of directly facing them. I could send you the photos if you like. Please provide your email. Also, my previous question about the bottom screw, I searched online for the parts manual. The name of the screw is listed and its size (dimensions). I took that info to Lowes and the sales rep gave me the correct screwdriver. I haven't had a problem since. Best, Biomedlib.
@@biomedlib I'd greatly appreciate any assistance and info you can provide. I've tried twice to post a reply containing my email but it isn't showing, to my knowledge. Is there any other way to get the info you want to share?
Thank you for this video. Will it solve the problem of lint not filling up the lint bucket? Our filter seems to be intact. Lots of lint behind the side cover but none in the machine or around it. The sweeper doesn't seem to be working. Where is that and is it able to be replaced? Thank you!!!
I cleaned behind the lint collector housing once again but this time having troubles attaching the silver moisture sensors, they keep falling and don't know how they clip on. Ur help would b greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hi Raymond -Thanks for the video. I was able to clean the lint out...filter didn't need replacing yet. However my dryer just won't run...it goes to power and then straight to cool down. and just continuously beeps. any ideas? its actually an older model. 2008. i appreciate the time and effort. thank you.
Bless you!!! Just what I was looking for. The reason I bought the fisher and paykel was, they were said to be easy to work on. Now I just need to locate the filter. Was there a part number you used?
I am sure this is easy to do, but my stupid screw is stripped (had so much gunk I couldn't get it out and stripped i wasn't even using a drill) and the location of the screw is hard to get to. (have to hang by waist into dryer. Any suggestions on how to get my screw out. I tried using an extractor but it didn't work. Please let me know what I can do to get the screw out. Thank you.
Great video! Thanks. Did this replacement keep the lint from building up around the lint screen inside the dryer as well? I am having outside lint and inside build up!
Some great info and nice delivery! My wife was just doing some drying and complaining about squeaking so I was looking for videos and came across your great information. I had never done this so there was a quite a backlog of lint, enough to make sweater. Any advice on the squeaking? Can you grease something up? I also wonder if replacing the lint screen on the plastic piece would be doable. $70 seems steep when you realize you just need small strip of mesh. I might give it a try and share the results.
Would it be tricky figuring out that airflow and resistance etc. And then having the right kind of glue that could handle the heat etc. Seemingly difficult/risky. Looking at this cheap looking plastic filter I would have thought that it would be worth about 40 maximum but it now costs almost 3x that.
dang, take it apart once a year?! I take mine apart every week, its so full of lint around the ring, but I also have to order a new scraper b/c its gone from previous owners...
Hello Again Raymond, I'm now having the same problem as two other watchers of your video....I can't get that damn bottom screw out. What kind and size screw driver did you use? Much love....

Great thorough video and it only took 15 minutes to clean and replace. Thanks!

Thank you!! So few companies service Fisher and Paykel and they are expensive!
Thank you so much! I have been having that problem for awhile! Appreciate you showing in such great detail!
Thank you! You helped a stay at home mom GET IT DONE!

Just found your video in 2017! I need step by step for the novice. Thanks!
Thank you so much for doing this video! I was just able to fix my dryer in 20 minutes due to watching this. :)
Great video! Thanks for walking it through step by step.
Great video Raymond. Followed your instruction and finished in about 30 minutes. Saved me some money!!
Great video! It answered a lot of questions of mine! Thanks!

Excellent. Every instruction is right on point. Thank you.
Thank you!! I just fixed my dryer and I it was so simple to follow your directions!
Thank you so much!!! I’m excited to see if my dryer will completely dry my clothes in the first round!
Was your dryer not getting hot? Im trying to figure out if this is my issue.
My issue too. Taking forever to dry clothes.
Thank you for the video. Very helpful!
Thank you! Exactly the info we needed.

Reverse Fulfillment it’s the bearing. On the right hand side. Just fixed mine. Runs like new. Plenty of videos on that too.

Do you have a suggestion to loosen the lowest screw. We are afraid that if we keep trying that it will be stripped. It won't budge. Thanks so much!
Dianne Boogaerts use a hex srew driver
I'm having the same problem with that screw. Did you ever get yours loose?
Hello Again Raymond, I'm now having the same problem as two other watchers of your video....I can't get that damn bottom screw out. What kind and size screw driver did you use?
Much love....
Im having an issue in that I cannot get the lint cup out, usually it's very simple but its jammed or stuck somehow.
