Looking for service manual 16023432 for Maytag Dryer MDE2400AZW

Thanks for the manual!  My dryer's started making a horrendous burned rubber smell, and I'm getting ready to open it up to see what's up - loose belt, melted insulation, etc.

I'm never buying another Maytag appliance ever.

ApplianceJunk, on the other hand, rocks!

Hi Odin,

Glad you found the service manual.

Good luck with the repair.

Thanks for the feedback.

The repair manual posted ....which I downloaded.....gives you a bunch of tests to perform, but doesn't tell you anything about what problem the tests indicate .......rendering it virtually useless....!!!

The manual makes perfect sense to me,but then, I am a technician.
If you would start your own topic and describe your problem we will help you in diagnosis and repair.

Well, it's March. Like clockwork my MDE2400AZW has stopped heating again. Maytag is coming out again tomorrow. I am going to recommend they issue a recall. We clear the lint trap religiously, but somehow lint gets around it and fills the door, which also fills the chassis, and also fills our ductwork. In order to clean it properly, I need to disassemble the dryer to clear it out, plus either climb behind it to clean the duct, or get on a 30 foot ladder to clean it from the outside. I assume this is not what Maytag expected us to go through when building this machine.

If they redesign the door and issue a recall, this could all be prevented. I'm thinking in the meantime of making a permanent secondary filter on the air inlet in the bottom of the chassis.

I'm interested in others' experiences with the lint collection on their MDE2400.

By the way, the link to the manual is down again - hopefully you don't mind reposting it for me and others as this page is near the top of the search results for this dryer.

Thanks!

Thanks!

What link? What do you mean by down?

Here is a link to the service manual.

The service manual I linked to in the quote above still works fine for me and that's the original link from March 30, 2011.

Let me know if I'm missing something.
