    Thanks a million! This tutorial got me through the replacement. I ended up ordering the entire assembly from Amazon and your instructions were spot on. I will say taking out the mounting assembly under the heating element and pulling the heating assembly out the front proved to be much easier than trying to pull it out of the back but that's just my 2 cents. Cannot thank you enough for sharing this video💯🤘🙏🙏🤞

    Great help. Wonderful video. Another video I saw on this dryer he actually took out the drum, belt, and all! A hint which will HELP- You can take the heater coil housing out of the front. Remove the mounting screw and the screw holding the bracket to the floor, remove the bracket, and the heater package will slide out the front. And you can record the wiring method as you slide it out. Much easier. The wiring diagram that came with the replacement kit was wired differently than the factory did it, so you have a choice. I conformed to the method the kit showed, and it worked fine. But, it's your choice.

    Thank you so much! I have absolutely zero experience repairing appliances and your video gave me confidence to order and replace the part myself with minimal issue. We have a ~2 year old Samsung DVE50M7450W and I quickly learned I would not have access to the back of the dryer. I was able to replace the assembly through the front of the machine after also removing the stabilizing bracket. We had significant build up of lint, which I suspect was the culprit. Thanks again!!

    OMG Daniel, you don't know how VALUABLE your video is. We were off on vacation and came home with a mountain of wash, and of course our dryer failed to heat at all. Figured it was the heater or fuse but no clue how to get to it. Your video made it a cake walk (not easy, but perfect step-by-steps). Element burnt out, we were debating getting a new set but for $18 it should be back running in a couple days. Terminals a pain to get off but managed. Only thing I'd add is when starting to remove the connectors I left the top hinged down and put a few 2x4's under the front to make it easier to access. And the three of the wires are blue and two black so had to find a way to identify what is what. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍

    John Tice is your dryer still working? Reason why I ask is because I've had it repaired twice by a repair specialist certified by Samsung and the first time it only lasted 5 minutes before it blew and the second time it lasted just a day short of being 2 weeks.

  • @ejordan74

    Thank you so much for this!! I'm not an intuitively handy person, but I can follow visual instructions! I have the DV45H7000EW/A2 and the really important stuff is the same. However, for anyone else with my model, the rear panel is different so you can't pull the heating assembly through the rear (which sounds really painful anyway!). After removing the door assembly, you will also need to remove the frame that holds the drum in place (not the actual drum). This is easy to do, just remove the four screws that frame the edge of the drum opening and one more screw on the lower left that attaches this frame to the blower looking thing southwest of the lint trap. Lift the frame and pull it gently toward you - the drum rollers are attached to the frame so be careful not to force it forward too hard. After that, disconnect the wires and finish the rest of Daniel's amazing tutorial!!

    Thank you! My fuse was bad. I just unscrewed the 'platform' underneath the heater assembly and bent it down to get the heater assembly out. When repaired, just bend the 'platform' back into place. Much faster this way. Also, Make sure you buy the fuses on ebay or amazon. My local appliance parts store charged my $30 (for a $5 fuse). I was able to fix my dryer the same day, but, will just order off amazon/ebay next time and save even more money.

    Thank you. THis is exactly (looks like) what I need to do. Had my dryer from Sears for 2 years, and it seems like it is not heating anymore. I've done a dryer element replacement on other things, but never a dryer like this. This is little more involved than others, but you make it look so easy. Thanks. My dryer is the dbxr463ed2ww. Very nice, but dislike how it (sometimes) makes drying decisions without your input. Maybe that's related to the element, not sure. But when it works, it works perfect. Oh yeah, ours will sometimes stop before it totally drys them. So, you have to put it on "absolute dry" or something like that. Anyway, wife does it mainly, but I just load them and press the same button everytime ... because I don't always have my glasses and tell what all the buttons say. Anyway, thanks for your video, and I plan to try it. But bet I can't get parts now as Christmas is just a few days away.

    thanks daniel for the detailed instructions which i followed easily. however, after replacing the heat assembly my issues of intermittent heat still persist. here are some clues...if the exhaust vent is removed from the dryer then it heats up fine. the dryer is vented outside over approx. 12ft with only one 90 elbow at the back of the dryer. the duct is clear (used my gas powered leaf blower to blow it clear from the inside).... as a temporary fix i thought to just use one of those water lint traps but as soon as i attach to dryer it stops heating again.....this is only about 3ft of brand new semi ridgid duct. i dont think the heat assembly needed to be changed and i'm now thinking its the control board. anyway to test the board? thanks!

    I have a Samsung dryer that is approximately 2 years old ( not near the unit and I can't recall the model but looks similar to the one in this video). The problem I have is that one blade of the pigtale cord gets so hot that I cannot touch it after I pull the plug. I am very adamant about keeping the lint trap and exhaust duct clean so that's not an issue. When I pulled the receptacle, one thing I noticed right off is that the previous homeowner (I assume) ran the circuit using 10-2/w #12 ground and he taped the ground and used it like a de-rated neutral. My plan is to re-pull the circuit using 10-3/w ground. Can using that #12 as the neutral cause one leg to draw more current than it should? I am also wondering why it's not tripping the 30A breaker in the panel.

    Hello Daniel!!! First let me say thanks, i myself am a fellow KZreadr that does reviews and etc.The thanks comes into play because i have that dryer minus the steam option that i've only owned for about 2 years. The other day after the dryer running for a long period, i checked the clothes to only realize they were still damp. After many different attemps to get to work all failed. So of course i hoped on KZread and started to see if there were videos on this situation and yours was one of the first to pop up in the suggested. After watching i ordered the part, meaning the whole assembly, online and the part arrived today. So which leads me to now, after less than an hour i had the old part out and new one in and the dryer is now working again. I only did one thing different, instead of removing the rear vent assembly, i just removed the bracket itself that the part rests on. By doing that the whole assembly comes out the front of the dryer and easier imo to unplug the wires and reinstall the new part. Again thanks for the video, very informative and you gained a sub from me. Thanks again!!!

    I pulled the entire housing out the front and replaced the internal elements and all of the bits and pieces. It was a bear getting it out the front, especially because there was a clip pinning it down into the platform it was sitting on. But - my clothes are now drying and have only been out of commission for 24 hrs. Not too shabby! $30 and done.

    THANK YOU!!! Excellent Video Bud!!!! My biggest question is, Should I replace all those parts at one time. Ive always followed the Logic of, "If it's NOT Broken Don't Fix It", but for $35 on Amazon (01/21/20) I ordered the Heating Element & got 3 Thermostats & a Thermister with the kit. I'm guessing the product quality is not up to Samsung standards so should I take the chance of going ahead & changing them or not. Ive replaced Dryer Heating Elements before, I just had not on my 5yr old dryer. This video help me figure out where the Heating Coil is & Exactly how to get to it, without me just tearing apart parts I didn't need to! EXCELLENT EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!

    Have the same model dryer. On start up, gives error code tE and will not function further from there. Tested all of the fuses and thermostat with multimeter and seem fine? Debating having someone look at it versus throwing parts at it? Worried could be the computer board? Thoughts? Thanks!

    We have the same dryer, but on the back of our dryer by the vent there is no plate to remove. How would we pull out the old unit?
