The dryer will heat up immediately and it smells like something is burning, but the drum will not spin.

Thank you for your question. If your dryer is not spinning and there is a burning smell, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the belt, the motor and motor pulley, the door switch, the seals, the split ring bearing and the cycling thermostat. We hope this helps! Good luck with the repair!

Smell of oil or cleaning fluid and takes longer to dry
For model number MEDC400VW0
Hi Susan,
Thank you for your question. If it is taking a long time for your dryer to dry clothes and you are getting a chemical or oil smell when it is in use, you may have a blockage in the vent duct. Check the lint filter and the vent duct to make sure that that they are free of lint. If they are clogged, you will need to clean them as they restrict air flow. If you have any questions, please let us know. We are open 7 days a week. We look forward to hearing from you!

Dryer would take forever to dry clothes, even on high setting
I ordered all the thermal sensors for the dryer. They arrived two days later and they were the correct parts. It took me about 1/2 hour to replace all three sensors and now the dryer works like new again. My wife was very pleased, so was I.
