Product Description

The Whirlpool W11105178 Dryer Drive Motor is an essential component for keeping your clothes dryer running effectively. This is essentially an electric motor that's directly attached to the dryer drum. When engaged, the motor spins a belt, which then rotates the drum, tumbling your garments and ensuring even drying. This motor is compatible with a variety of Whirlpool, Kenmore, and Maytag dryer models. A malfunctioning drive motor can show in a variety of ways. If your dryer cannot be tumbling at all, produces strange noises while running, or takes much longer to dry clothing, the drive motor could be the problem. Replacing a defective motor with the W11105178 restores your dryer's ability to dry your laundry efficiently.
