You can access the thermistor & limit switch through the vent access on the back. Remove 1 screw & the vent tube assembly pulls straight out giving you access, you may want to tilt the dryer on it's front to make access easier.

Thank you. Don’t even have to watch the video. Took five mins. Thank youuu. Helping people in the future!! lol

We have a 2009 Samsung DV337 dryer that mysteriously stopped running after a few minutes and the display lights completely went out. Our machine was making louder noises than usual and when started back up it would turn on but stop with no lights again after a few minutes. After reviewing this this video, I thought that it might be the thermistor and followed the instructions to check it. While our model did not match the video exactly, the process was very similar. Once I removed the front panel, the blower assembly was easy to access and the fan was partially filled with linen debris which was causing the blower to be impeded shutting the dryer down. After cleaning the assembly and reassembling the dryer, it works like new and is much quieter. Thank you to the Repair Clinic for the video, it helped us save the costs of a new dryer and our 8 year old machines continues to operate well Thank you Samsung!

Excellent, detailed video. Removing the drum and getting it back in correctly is the most stressful part for sure. Be careful with the belt and with lining up the pulley beneath. Mine had lint covering the thermistor. I actually started with the heating element and fuse, but that didn’t work. Debated giving up when I saw the whole drum had to come out to change thermistor, but went for it, felt confident with this video, and got it fixed! Thank you.

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!! I actually have a dv350aer/xaa but just about every single step in this video was relevant. If you have a similar Samsung dryer that is not heating, I would highly recommend trying to fix it yourself by changing out the thermister via this video. (Thermistors are cheap on Amazon, got mine for $9 and this saves on having the call out fee of $60-$100 dollars.) One other note, my spring fell off the pulley wheel where the belt attaches to so it took me a while to figure out why the belt was so loose.

Thank you so much for this excellent, step-by-step video. I have ordered the thermistor and will watch your video as I replace it. Thank you for showing the steps in both taking apart the dryer and putting it back together.

Thanks so much! This video was excellent and exactly what i needed. Easy to follow steps and very clear images for each step of the process. This is a perfect example of what a "how-to" video should aspire to be in every way.

New house, older dryer. 4 months in its throwing up a tO error. This video helped a ton!

thank you for the fast response i recently graduated as an HVAC/R service tech and also learned how to repair appliances i really join watching ur videos as a class really good videos have helped aloot on alot of jobs thanks..repair clinic

Thank you! This made fixing the TE error code on my Samsung dv365gtbgwr/a3 Gas Dryer very easy. The part was $8 on amazon. You Rock!

This video was incredibly helpful. Thanks! The only time I ran into trouble was loosening the tensioner and getting the belt back on. All other steps were fairly simple.

Great video. It helped solve my dryer problem. Thanks very much!

Great video, was the same steps for my Samsung dryer dv42h5000ew/a3 04, in case anyone needed instructions for theirs. Thank you for uploading this!

Fantastic step by step process! Thank you for having this video available.

If you can put together IKEA furniture then you have the skills for this project. It took less than an hour. Thank you so much for the clear instructions!

Thank you so much I was able to fix my dryer for $21 instead of the $375 quote I received.

This video was very helpful. Thank you for the detailed step by step instructions!

Excellent video, no unnecessary info.

I just installed this today! The location of the Thermistor on the gas dryer is right next to the cover over the blower wheel..3 screws out and it was right there..did not have to remove drum. However..I neglected to pay attention to what wire was on the left and right (it is mounted horizontally...since you specifically mention in the video to make sure the blue wire is on the top, I was wondering if it matters...your videos are terrific!!

Thank you...was so helpful!

there's alot less work by taking exhaust tube off the back. then reach in to disconnect plug and then unscrew part to replace.

Thanks it helped me replace the thermistor.

This is an easy repair for do it yourselfer's. I have a slightly different model and changed the thermistor and temperature sensor in about 1 hour. (DC32-00007A, 1 DC47-00016A- parts about $25). They are accessible without removing the rum and the on a removable panel so you can cleanout accumulated material or clogs from the discharge low point. Probably saved $200 on a service call.

Una pregunta este termistor es solo para secadoras electricas o tambien las de gas llevan ese componente?

When I replaced the heating element I just reached around and unscrewed the thermistor sight unseen. It’s only one screw so pretty easy to do it without seeing it. I replaced it in about 3 minutes just by feel.

really great vidios. my only gripe is why all these parts are so close to walls that access panels are not part of design? ihad a maytag where all these parts had access panels for testing and replacement wished i never changed up.

Nice video, thank you. The thermistor switch on my Samsung DV448AEP/XAA is accessible from the front without removing the drum. Can’t load the pic in this comment though.

Hey this was a great help !

Thanks!!

Very useful

i have a samsung electric dryer dv40j3000eg itll power up but cant change settings or start it up, the thermistor is defiantly bad no continuity on it, could this be the reason it wont start, i checked all other possibilities have continuity on all other sensors , belt switch good, and door switch good, motor good, havent tried diagnostics on the start button yet

Thanks for making this

I have a samsung DV5471A gas dryer. Sometimes it heats for awhile then i get an error code HEand it stop's heating. If i unplug it then plug it back in it work's fine again for awhile then the same thing happen's. Would you have any idea what may cause this ? Thank's.

Will a simple continuity test work for troubleshooting or do you have to check Ohms Resistance? I'm asking because I checked for continuity and there is none, but I didn't check for resistance.

Will a bad Thermistor prevent the heating element from heating?

Excellent, helpful video. Was just what was needed! BUT!!!!!!!! My model Samsung dryer has the thermistor below the front panel. I did not have to remove the drum whatsoever. Everyone should check their machine to see if their thermistor is on the bottom right part of the vent housing

My samsung drier showing tE5 error what do i replace?

What is the thermistor temp I have one said 320 f and another one said 185 f?

Would the replacement of this thermistor help on the 1 minute machine does not stop problem? I have replaced the other 3 common thermistors and the dryer works but never stops after reaching 1 minute.

My Samsung DV42H5000EW keeps blowing its thermal fuse after the second cycle. When it blew last year I replaced the fuse and it worked, but now it keeps blowing. I've checked the vents and ducting in the house and the driver and all appears good (only a light amount of lint). What are my next steps? I am thinking I need to clean the Thermistor. Do I go though the same process?

the help more if you tell us what is the ischium

i know im way behind the times here but can you replace the relay? Find new connectors? Relay on the board melted and wires burned.

I replaced the thermal fuse, I replaced the dryer thermistor and I replace the heating element assembly. It worked for 2 days. Now, it is back to no heating. Why?

It would be nice if this repair showed a continuity test on the part.

Agree STRONGLY with mu1215. FAR LESS WORK to access the thermistor from the exhaust tube in back...

Is the error code for this repair t0?? Thanks

whats the other piece next to the thermistor called?this is such a great video

Wish I would have looked at your remark before we started. This would have saved a TON of work

My Samsung dryer won't heat suddenly. No blockages, heating element and sensor resistances (3) all essentially zero. Thermistor gives 5600 ohms. Service repairman circuit diagram/cheat sheet said it should be 10K, just like below. I did disconnect lead and still got 5600. Cheat sheet said something about a "membrane relay". There is a heater relay in the main board, don't know how to test. Any thoughts?

@repairclinic

10 жыл бұрын

Michael Kinnaird To test the heater relay you will need to look at the wiring diagram and figure out which wire is coming out of the control board for that relay. Run the dryer and see if you have power out of that wire. The problem with that is if the sensor is bad it may not call for heat. I would double check all the other components first. Make sure you don’t have a burnt wire on the incoming power terminal block. The heating element is the only part that requires 220 volts to operate. Hope this helps.

Why did the thermistor need changing? I know it must have been faulty but was there a noheat situation?

I have a Samsung DV448AGP/XXA that keeps giving me a "temperature sensor error", would this fix that problem? Tried cleaning the lint that gets stuck below the door that is so difficult to reach and it was moist. Not sure if that info helps with a diagnosis, but it seemed relevant. Trying to save some money, any advice is welcomed. Thanks

Try testing all the parts by the heating element, the thermostat, the thermostat assembly bracket, the heating element, (you can purchase all of these along with the housing all together for less than 50 on amazon which is less than it cost separately and less work to install. The other issue it can be is a burned out wire. I had to fix this twice because I had no idea it could be related to the thermistor. Maybe if i fixed that first, I wouldn't have had these other issues, but you live and learn i guess. The first time my thermostat was busted, so i replaced that, two weeks later it was a burned wire from the thermostat, all related to the thermistor not working. so yeah, fix that first if you are ahead of the game you will save yourself a lot of trouble and money. DIY as these are easy fixes that a housewife with no prior experience can fix. Also It will save you hundreds in a service call if your dryer is not under warranty and while you have the dryer all out like that you can replace the maintenance parts like the wheels, clean out the lint and change the belt and the arm wheel assembly all together these are inexpensive and needs to be replaced every 2-3 years OR when you hear a lot of loud noises coming from your dryer. my problem started when I washed and dried a pillow that was suppose to be natural bamboo. UGGHH!

I've got a thermistor reading 5K at 77 degrees Fahrenheit, and the resistance doesn't really change much that. Would that cause the heat to not turn on?

@repairclinic

Thermistors do not go bad that often. If lint is caught on the thermistor it will not cycle the heat properly. A thermistor will usually show open or shorted to be bad. If your venting is clear and the element and limits are ok you can try the thermistor.

Did you figure yours out? Ours is doing the same thing as you described. I replaced the thermostat and the thermal fuse on the heating element. Dryer has always dried fine but shuts off during the cooling cycle with an HE code. Everything I read says "if your dryer isn't heating". Ours is heating fine so makes me think the heating element is fine also.

Okay good video overall but you kinda glossed over the drum belt removal from the pulleys. There’s a bit more to it than twisting to get it off. I went through the exhaust vent in the back.

The model in the video looks to be electric does the replacement differ much for a gas version?

@repairclinic

9 жыл бұрын

Stephen Overton It should be located in the same area on gas or electric. Thermistors are often misdiagnosed on dryers and generally do not cause a no heat situation. A good thermistor normally reads about 10,000 ohms at room temperature so you need to have your meter set on the correct scale or you won’t get any reading at all. Please visit our website for additional repair help information on this dryer.

Stephen Overton Replacing the thermistor should fix the problem. Hope the repair goes well and the dryer is up and running soon.

After you remove the top, the controller, and the door panel, STOP. The thermistor faces forward, near the floor, close to the drum. You don't even need to remove your wet clothes to complete this repair. DO NOT REMOVE YOUR BELT OR DRUM. Total time required: 8 mins.

When everything test good but ur heater relay is stuck on and doesn't cycle on and off, check the control board for a easy remedy

I hope whoever did the voiceover on this video, has to listen to it in hell, for all eternity.

yes like a lot said go in through the back … the job takes 10 minutes.. all that extra work for nothing

You never specified what orientation in which to install and connect thermistor to harness.. The harness can be attached either way, but only one is correct..
