So what I used to do in the field was I would take the new screws and I would tread each hole first before trying to attempt to put this in. I noticed on our new bearing plate there, it actually came pre-threaded. And with that said, the bearing plate when it used to come, it was never pre-threaded. Everything should be brand new, the bearing itself, the screws that go with the bearing. You want to make sure you’re checking all your parts, make sure that you have the correct screws. Things to know when you open up your new bearing kit. So we’ll be back here once we get this done.Īll right, welcome back. So we’re going to go ahead and get this unit apart here and we’re going to get this drum out and get you a good view of what we’re going to be doing here. You’re going to find out that the ball bearing has actually worn through the plastic carriage and it’s now scraping along with the metal bracket that it sits on. The drum feels really loose inside,” things like that nature. Likely you’re replacing this because the customer has said, “Hey, my dryer is making a really awful scraping noise. And once we get that out, we’re going to go ahead and remove those three screws and remove the old bearing. So we’re going to have to remove the drum from the unit. So inside here, you can’t really see the inside of the dryer, but there are three screws that hold that ball bearing on the back of the drum. I found a couple of easy ways, a couple of tricks for you that I want to show you here in this video to be able to do this job at a little bit of a faster pace and make things a lot easier for you on the road.
It’s impossible to try to wrap your arms all the way in and around to try to get the ball bearing secured to the back of the drum. For a lot of you, this has been nothing but trouble. In today’s video, we’re going to be working on this Frigidaire electric dryer doing the rear drum bearing on the dryer itself. Hey guys, Tim with Fred’s Appliance Academy here with another great video for you.
