Thanks some much for doing these videos. I did this exact repair today. Ordered the part on Sunday, it arrived today. With my phone sitting next to me and this video playing I had the job done in 30 minutes. I did not remove the drum though. My dryer is stacked and I completed the repair with it still on top of the washer. All in all I saved $350 and 2 weeks of down time per quote from local appliance repair shop. Also fixed two different dish washers using your videos in the past. You have saved me close to $1000 in repair costs and weeks of down time. Thanks again!!

I’ve now replaced mine 4 times over the past 7 years using your video (wish the replacement part lasted longer)! You’ve saved me lots of $ in service calls. My bit of advice is to drive screws into the new holes on the replacement part & remove them before actually installing. Sometimes the replacement part holes are a tad small which makes them more difficult to get the screw in, especially in tight places ;)

Thanks so much! I did the whole job in 90 minutes. I did NOT remove the tub. I just didn't want to deal with the zig zag pulley belt which is hard to see. The video makes it look way more accessible than it is. It's possible to keep the tub in place, you only need a short screw driver to remove the heating element mounting screws. The mounting screw for the heating element which is in the back is harder to reach (and it's the longest screw you'll deal with) is a pain, but you can get to it. If I had to do this again, it would take 45-60 minutes.

Guys, thanks for the video. I just completed the replacement myself and couldn't have done it without this guide. I have two lessons learned I would like to share with others: 1) Removing the drum is called optional in the video but it is essential. 2) Removing and replacing the screw holding the heating element housing in the heat duct (first shown at about 3:35) is very difficult because there is not room for a normal-sized screwdriver. Ensure you have a short screwdriver that will fit in the limited clearance area before you start. Again, thanks. -- Mike

Thanks for fantastic video, fixed my heating element in about 1-1/2 hours, my dryer was a slightly different model (had 3 wires on the heater and my wires plugged into the control board in different places) but if you pay attention when you take wires off your will be fine, I used a sharpie to note on the wires where I took them off. Also, my heater was not bad just warped over and the elements were touching the side of the housing, thus shorting out. I bent the heater bracket back to center, tested it for continuity with a volt meter and put it back together. Fixed.

Very good, but missing some steps. 1) the spring holding the belt is attached only loosely, and comes off each time I try to route the belt around the pulleys (solution: put a clip on both ends of the spring, route belt, remove clips). 2) aligning the door panel is non-trivial, and there are extra tabs that were not mentioned (solution: you can remove those, as they mostly used to hold up the panel while you align it). 3) our heating element has 4 electrical connections, not 2, so when I went to rotate the heating element, the last one snagged -- was I supposed to remove that one as well? (solution: yes, remove ALL the clips you can find, and remember which clip goes where because the black and silver clips are NOT inter-changable, ex, take a picture). 4) to remove the back screw holding the heating element to the back of the dryer, you'll need a VERY short screwdriver, as the demo unit has a slightly different bend at the back and does not obscure the screwdriver. 5) clean the fan blades by scraping your finger hard along them. A dirty fan is why the air move slowly, and that overheats the heating element. Don't demo on a new unit! It's too clean and you're not showing where the lint needs to be removed. Our heating elements burn out every 10-16 months, and we ONLY use low heat now. They cost $30-50, and, in our experience, usually come damaged as they don't pack them very well. Opinion: Electrolux did a poor job of designing this. 2.5 hours to replace it. The heating element should be accessible if it's going to be replaced so frequently. Position your unit where you can easily move it away from the walls (our unit is in a tiny room and can't be moved, so I climb over it to unplug it and unscrew the top lid.

This is the best tutorial out there. My model had a ground wire connection on the heating element, as well as a third heating coil connection, but it will be clear how to disconnect and reconnect. The worst part is removing and reinstalling the screw connecting the heating element to the rear wall. You’ll need a stubby screw driver.

This was a pretty simple repair. But the ONE thing that was a pain was the screw in the back of the heating element housing. The smallest screwdriver I had would not fit. Luckily we had a ratchet with a Phillips head attachment, which made it simple. But I would suggest getting one of these before you do it.

This is a great repair video. But it has one problem. It shows this disassembly of a brand new machine. Most of us are repairing the heating element or something internal after many years of service. In my case the front panel and the internal panel had become slightly fused together from the heat. So when it came time to remove the front panel it required significant prying force to separate the two. In the process the four retaining clips were broken. I reinstalled the front panel after the repair without the clips because I didn’t have any replacements. Seems to have worked just fine. The point is disassembly of an older machine was not near as easy for me as the video shows.

For any that need to do this, skip removing the drum. Just use a ratchet with 1/4 inch socket and Phillips bit to get to the back screw on the element. Pull the wires from the element while it is still in the dryer. The thermostat and thermo-fuse are easier to remove with the element removed from the dryer. Thread the back screw into the new element and remove again to make it easier to get it started once installing it into the heat duct. Just my 2 cents to help you save 200 dollars.

In reviewing the disassembly video, I noted that the receiver on the "Electronic Control Board" had 4 pickups for the 4 pickups on the outlet/inlet control thermister plug. However, mine has 5 in this location. I then plugged the outlet/inlet thermister plug into a 4-pickup position on the ECB and everything is as it should be. Human error due to watching a video listed as working for my dryer, but apparently there was a minor design change that got me. I believe "my bad" is the appropriate euphemism at this point.

I replaced my hearing elements in late September. The old one had heated up so much it warped the inside metal panel causing the elements to fall against the casing and then started heating the casing. On the first dry cycle after replacing the circuit breaker kept going off after 20 minutes. Then it would do it after 5 minutes on low heat. Tore apart my dryer again to find my brand new heating element had done the same thing as before. Literally burnt up the inside metal panel within 3 months. (Barely used). I checked the continuity of the thermal fuse and the high limit thermostat at both room temperature and high heat. It kicked off about 250 or so and it's rated 260. If it is not those 2 things, what is causing my heating element to get so hot, it started literally burning up it's own casing. (By the way, checked for lint etc and it is fairly clear.)

Russell Springer I figured it out. The rubber gasket on the inside was stuck. I was able to see it after I forced one side up. I took a flat head screwdriver to the outside to loosen the outside, careful not to pull too hard so you don't damage the metal tabs. If you use the screwdriver on the inside, like I did, be careful not to damage the rubber gasket. I damage mine a little bit, by scratching it, but I think mine will function just fine.

There are other models that last years longer with the same systems in it. But electrolux seems to made defective products from mexico. Lets bring products back to the USA that last longer. We don't have to charge a arm and a leg for them either. And labor for this operation cost at lease 350.00 dollars or more.for a fifty dollar part.

Maybe a hardware store near you has a short 1-2 in screwdriver and if not an automotive parts store might carry one. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Mike

ACE Hardware store has the best tools for this step, I bought a stubby phillips also but I could only use him for the bottom brackets and both for the thermostats. :) _lh3.googleusercontent.com/eTGvOHZPlWzJhgOBAeou5IzwgNfS7-PMzpCh6VswKAVJEYHM6kUp1J_Nn0W0WFI0M9i9f7hHuA_

1/4" drive socket wrench with a screw bit is the right tool for the right job...

So many un-needed steps to remove and replace the element. You can access the element for replacement from the rear of this unit.

I replaced the heating element, and after a while, it still throws the E64 code...and now it doesn't heat at all (it was heating before up to a point in the cycle where it threw the code). What would be my next step?

Maybe the thermostat and fuse on the heating element

DO NOT start this project unless you have the really short and fat Phillips head screwdriver. 9th to last screw is impossible without it.

Trevor David Stinson yes. I struggled with this until we found a ratchet with a Phillips head. I advise everyone to get one of these beforehand.

Wow, I'd pay a local dryer repair $200, and after seeing this, I'd still pay someone $200. But great video. $200.0 another part went, the motherboard, so repair would be $550 extra. I'm dumping this, and buying new. Nothing made to last, unless you know how to fix it yourself

I followed all the steps but smell a burning smell inside... any idea 💡

I just replaced my heating element and it burnt up again right away. It smelled to. Like the element burnt up the inside of the casing. Something else is wrong. I've tested my thermal fuse and high limit and they are working but something is wrong that it literally starts burning the casing up.

I went back and tested the thermal limiter and the thermostat safety (high-limit) and they were both fine. So then I tested exhauster thermal limiter, the inlet thermistor and and the exhaust thermistor. Turns out my inlet thermistor is bad. You can google how to test theses. Limiters and thermistors are tested differently and some have to be tested at room temp and hot. Videos will help you. Good luck!

This is the only video I’ve seen that’s went through the front. The screw must not be that hard to get.

I went through the back first and it was impossible. I re-did it from the front and that worked.
