Model Number: LGN2000JQ2 Brand: Whirlpool Age: 1 - 5 years
My gas dryer will not turn/spin. I checked the timer (OK), door switch (OK), fuse (OK). Removed panels and cleaned everything (it was dirty). When I hit the ON button the motor trys to turn (humming sound - I guess it dosen't know the words) but seens to be bound up. I tryed helping the tub to turn by hand (opened the door and spun the tub with the door switch depressed) but it did not help. The tub does not spin very freely when pushed by hand (lots of resistance).
I suspect the motor is shot. Please advise. Kind Regards, Mike |

Hi Mike,
Remove the belt and check if the motor moves freely. If it does not - replace the motor. - The part number for the motor is AP3094245 Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool dryer Model LGN2000JQ2 Gene.
