Repair Your Dryer Instead Of Replacing

Dryer Drum Leaving Sooty Stains on Clothes

I have something blue all over the inside of my dryer. Looks like crayon, but I didn't find a crayon or anything else. Not sure, but it is along the edge of the part the helps the clothes go around. Does anyone know if I can get that piece off so I can clean underneath it?

Do Old Kenmore Dryers Have a Circuit Breaker?
My late 80's Kenmore Dryer worked one day, then just stopped the next. It won't turn, it won't heat, nothing happens! It's as if it came unplugged suddenly, but it didn't. Is there a circuit breaker in there somewhere like blow-dryers have in case they get too hot?

Electrical Problems With My Dryer
I am hoping someone out there can help me. I am desperate for some good electrical advice. About 2 1/2 months ago my dryer stopped working. I assumed the dryer motor went bad because when you pushed the button for it to start it just hummed at you. After verifying that the belt was still good we disposed of the dryer.
Longer Life For Dryer's Heating Element
To give your dryer's heating element longer life, take out the lint catcher and clean with dish washing liquid and a scubbing brush. Fabric softner & dryer sheets put a flim on the lint catcher that you cannot see that blocks air from flowing through it. If you don't believe me, before cleaning it, run the lint catcher under water and watch to see if it runs through the screen on not! It's best to clean the screen every couple of months to save your heating element!
I have water accumulating in my clothes dryer. Has anyone had this problem before? I cannot imagine where this water is coming from. I have to dry my dryer before each use.
