Maytag Bravos MEDB700VQ Dryer Troubleshooting and Repair

Most common issues on this model

  1. Dryer that makes noise only when starting
  2. Heat that cuts out partway through a load
  3. Long drying times after a clean lint screen
  4. Door that does not latch firmly

The MEDB700VQ is a Maytag Bravos dryer that shares its base number with other color versions. We confirm the ending from the label, because it can change which parts fit your dryer.

If noise comes only when the drum starts, we look at the belt, the idler and the rollers. Heat that cuts out partway through a load usually means the thermostats or a loose heating connection. A clean lint screen with long drying times shifts our attention to the duct and the exterior cap. A door that does not latch firmly gets the latch, strike and door switch checked together.

Such dryers are common in Houston laundry closets with a vent that runs up and out. We read the full model and serial number from the label before ordering. You get the price in writing, and a 30-day workmanship warranty covers our work.

MEDB700VQMEDB700VQ questions
Why is my dryer slow even with a clean lint screen?

The screen is only one part of the airflow path. The duct, the vent cap and the blower housing can all hold lint. We measure airflow and clear what we find.

What if the door will not latch?

A worn latch or a bent strike is the usual reason. We replace the worn piece and test the door switch at the same visit. It is typically a small repair.

Do the VQ and BW endings differ?

They can mark a different color or revision. Some parts are the same and some are not, so we match the full number before ordering.
