Thumbs up from Montreal ! You saved us a lot of time, paper and money. I was able to remove the trapped sock without dismantling the dryer, doing some contorsion with my arm and hand… Manufacturers should install some kind of hatch at this level to make our life easier. Many thanks again !
Bro u literally saved me so much money omg. I was about to give up and buy a new one since all the other videos weren’t really as instructional as yours but man I’m so glad I came across this! Thanks so much!
You just saved us hundreds of dollars!! 🤸♂️🤸♀️🤸🏻 Samsung could't help!! Just for the repairman to show up was 1/2 the price of a new dryer. Your video was EXACT!! So so very grateful!! May God bless you for making it!!!!
Similarity of symtoms were so strong in my case, I gave a try to your approach to find a piece of cloth locked exactly to the same spot! It is back on track now, thanks Michel
A life saver ! I got lucky and was able to replace my dryer ( that had been broken for a year) with a practically new samsung dryer. After two months, it just gave out and was devastated 😂😂 two weeks of looking for solutions on TH-cam and NOTHING!! I stopped looking, and BAM 😂😂 a washcloth was stuck
so perfect for me. 🎉🎉🎉 Thanks i thought i was going to have to junk this expensive dryer or pay someone else to tell me its the motor and never comeback again. A big sock was stuck in that blower fan thingy. there wss at least 3 more socks change art supplies smh smh. Now its purring like a kitty.❤
You might need to remove some lint from the element. Hopefully you cleaned it out while you had it opened up. If it wasn’t a lot, the smell will go away
I've cleaned everything, it was so dirty, yhe smell disappeared and my dryer is working better than a brand new. Thank you so much for this video! It was a life saver!
My dryer is making a buzzing sound for 1 second as I hold the "start" button... The motor isn't spinning... It's a rear blower assembly, so I removed the back panel and checked the blower wheel and it looks fine... I can spin it and watch the drum move from behind. It still makes the buzz sound and won't start. I've also tried holding the door open and holding the door button while rotating the drum and pressing start and it doesn't do anything either... I'm almost certain it's the motor... My question is, would I be better off buying another cheap dryer or just buying a new motor? It's an older electric dryer, so to replace the motor I might as well replace the felt seals, rollers, and etc.... which would be pretty much as much as a new cheaper dryer... Second part to that question, would taking it apart and cleaning the motor and lubricating it with oil possibly work to get things moving again?
Send me a model number, what kind of dryer, Bosch? You might have a broken belt, belt switch, something caught inside. Yes definitely open it up and check. On the lubricant, no unfortunately you can’t do it. You can try cleaning the motor and see if it works. Lint can stop a centrifugal switch from making contact
Hello, my dryer had the exact same sound and spin issues as in the video. I opened it up to see the blower which didn’t spin smoothly due to lint. I cleaned it out, so now it spins very smoothly and the drum does as well but when I turn it back on it makes the same sound but turns very slowly in a jolt like fashion. Any ideas? Should I try manually spinning to start?
Yes you have a failure in the motor. Try this, open the door and press the door switch and with a third hand as you press start turn the drum. If it runs, your motor is going or you have lots of lint in it. Keep me updated
@@JS-te4gzyes Samsung refrigerators have way too many issues, but LG has their own with bad/ leaks in the sealed system. Both are bad, but at least with Samsung, you will have a particularly working fresh food section . LG you won’t have anything. LG is getting better
Thank you soooooo freaking much. Time and money saved!!! As a family of eight a broken dryer is devastating 😩 but crisis averted thanks to you😁👏🏾👍🏾
My pleasure, It is always weird asking, but in case you didn’t know. You can also buy me a coffee. Either way, it is my pleasure

Same issues stuck a panel and removed now running 🏃♂️ like rabbits 🎉😂 Thanks
And if there isn’t anything stuck in the motor?
If I’m not mistaken, it had something caught in the blower wheel
Same dryer same problem but i dont have the ability or tools to do the fix
All you need is a Phillips screwdriver and my video. You can email me for more help
@@appliancerepairshorts your awesome thanks so much i decided to buy a new one
Mine has same problem, cleaned it out but it only starts if I spin the drum manually.
Sucked a sock in. Thank you so much for your video.
Samsung needs to stick to TVs and phones
