How To Replace the Motor Switch in Your Amana/Whirlpool Dryer: A DIY Heating Fix
In this detailed video guide, we dive into the crucial steps involved in replacing the motor switch on your Amana or Whirlpool dryer. If your dryer isn't heating up, despite thorough checking of other components such as the timer, the most likely culprit is the dryer's motor switch. This video specifically focuses on the replacement of the centrifugal switch, which powers the element when the motor starts the blower wheel and initiates proper air circulation. Perfect for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners looking to solve their dryer issues, we walk you through each step in a clear and understandable way. Learn the ins and outs of dryer repair and save time, money, and frustration with our comprehensive guide.

My pen name is Cal Kasheau. Hey, I'd like to shamelessly promote my literary accomplishments while I have your attention. I have several short story titles you can get on Amazon; the links are below. Some are humorous, some reflect events in my life, and some are legends I heard of as a child in the swamps of Louisiana. They are only a dollar or two, and most are free with Kindle unlimited membership. I hope you will take the time to read one or two and give me your honest opinion in the comments on whether or not I should continue to pursue a side gig as an author.

Great video. I think it’s broken in mine but I can’t find the part. Only seeing full motor assemblies online. Any suggestions?

You can find them on eBay. Thanks for watching!
Traced the problem with my less than 2 year old whirlpool to this switch thanks to this video. Took the actual switch apart and everything seemed to be functioning fine. I'm guessing that the centrifugal switch on the motor itself was stuck. Put it all back together and it's working fine. Thanks so much for the video!

Glad you think so! I appreciate your comments!
What's the most money you've found in the bottom of a dryer. At one time, I found $7 in change and a $20 bill.

I found over $15.00 in change and a $5.00 bill. But the best thing I found was a diamond tennis bracelet once. That lady tried to give me a reward for returning it to her. She was very happy!
