279787 AP3094233 Whirlpool Dryer Drive Motor

This Dryer Motor serves as an appliance dryer replacement part compatible with Whirlpool dryers. Specifically designed for large-capacity Whirlpool-built dryers, this motor plays a crucial role in driving the rotation of the dryer's drum, ensuring effective drying. This replacement dryer motor has a blower shaft length of 1-5/8 inches and a drive shaft length of 1-1/4 inches. Notably, it differs from the original motor by featuring only one terminal on the overload protector switch. To adapt to this change, a wire kit is included, facilitating the necessary adjustments in wiring for compatibility with the one-terminal overload. While the replacement process is not without its challenges and demands the removal of both the drum and blower wheel, it can be successfully executed with a meticulous approach. The motor is versatile, fitting various Whirlpool-manufactured dryers, including those under brands such as Kenmore (prefixed with 110), Roper, KitchenAid, and Estate.
