Whirlpool Dryer WED70HEBW0 Will not tumble or doesn't tumble

The Drive Belt is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It is responsible for transferring power from the motor to the drum, allowing the drum to rotate and tumble the clothes during the drying cycle. A bad drive belt can be caused by regular wear and tear or overloading the dryer with heavy items.  

Symptoms of a bad drive belt include:

• The dryer drum not spinning or tumbling.
• Squeaking or grinding sounds during use.
• Clothes taking longer to dry or not drying evenly.
• Visible signs of wear or fraying on the belt.

If you notice any of these signs, it's time to replace the drive belt with this genuine OEM part. This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
 

The Thermal Fuse is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dryers. This easy-to-install thermal cut-off is designed to shut down your dryer when temperatures become too high, protecting the appliance from overheating. It's a one-time fuse, meaning it cannot be reset and needs to be replaced. It can be tested for continuity with a multimeter.

Causes of Bad Thermal Fuse

• Excessive lint buildup in the dryer vent
• Poor air flow causing overheating
• Failing to clean out the lint filter regularly
• Faulty heating element or drying cycle thermostat

Don't let a faulty dryer leave you stranded with wet clothes! Replace your dryer's Thermal Fuse to get back to using your dryer worry-free. This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

• Extended drying times 

Causes of these issues can range from normal wear and tear, which gradually degrades the rollers, belt, and pulley, to overloading the dryer, which can accelerate the wear on these components and lead to premature failure. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of these parts can prevent more serious problems and extend the life of the dryer.

The Drum Support Wheel Retainer is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. This part secures the drum support wheels in place, ensuring that the dryer drum rotates smoothly and quietly during operation. The retainer is designed to fit precisely, preventing the support wheels from loosening or wobbling, which can lead to inefficient drying and increased wear on other components. 

Over time, retainers can wear out or become damaged, potentially leading to a loose drum support wheel. This can cause the dryer to operate noisily, vibrate excessively, or even damage the drum itself if not addressed promptly.

Symptoms of a bad Drum Support Wheel Retainer include:

• Unusual noises, such as squeaking or thumping, coming from the dryer
• Excessive vibration during operation
• The dryer drum may feel unstable or wobble when turned by hand

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

The Thermistor is an OEM part for Whirlpool brand dryers. It is a temperature-sensing resistor that monitors air temperature changes during the drying cycle. The thermistor provides feedback to the control board on heating element performance and internal air condition. 

Symptoms of a failed thermistor include:

• Inaccurate temperature readings and selections  
• Improper or incomplete drying
• Safety issues from overheating due to lack of feedback
• Error codes displayed on the control panel

Causes can be related to normal wear and environmental exposure over time. Failure prevents the dryer from achieving optimal drying conditions.

This genuine Whirlpool thermistor replacement restores precise air temperature monitoring. It ensures the control board receives accurate input to effectively regulate heating levels. This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
