When to Replace

Replace the dryer drive motor when the dryer will not start, the drum will not spin, or the motor produces excessive noise or squeaking. A worn or failing motor may also cause intermittent operation, overheating, or automatic shutdown during a cycle.

Installation Tips

  • Disconnect the dryer from electrical power before beginning service.
  • Compare the replacement motor with the original, including the 1.8-inch blower shaft, pulley arrangement, part number, and electrical rating.
  • Confirm the dryer model and fitment identifiers before installation.
  • Inspect related drum, blower, belt, and electrical components while the motor is accessible.
  • After installation, check that the drum rotates smoothly and that the motor does not overheat or make unusual noise.
  • On a desktop, use Ctrl + F; on a mobile device, use the browser's Find in Page function to check compatibility identifiers.

FAQs

This 120-volt drive motor is designed for select Maytag and Kenmore dryers. Confirm your dryer's full model number and compare the motor connector, mounting points, shaft, and pulley before ordering.
The motor is identified by part numbers 279827 and W10396029. Use either number when checking compatibility with your dryer model.
Common symptoms include a dryer that hums but will not start, a drum that does not turn, intermittent starting, a motor that overheats and shuts off, or a burning odor near the motor. A seized drum, worn rollers, or a damaged belt can produce similar symptoms and should also be checked.
Yes. The motor is supplied with the drive pulley installed, allowing it to transfer power to the dryer drum belt.
Disconnect power first, then inspect the drum belt, idler pulley, drum rollers, blower wheel, and motor wiring. Make sure the drum and blower wheel turn freely and remove any lint buildup or obstruction that could overload the replacement motor.
Replacement is generally a moderate appliance repair and commonly takes about 30 to 60 minutes for an experienced DIYer. Typical tools include a screwdriver or nut driver, pliers, and a putty knife or panel-release tool, although the exact tools depend on the dryer design.
