MEDC465HW
Maytag MEDC465HW Electric Dryer Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Automatic cycle that quits too soon
- Thumping as the drum turns
- Start button with no response
- Hot-smelling drum with cool air
The MEDC465HW is a Maytag electric dryer. Because the same dryer is often built in more than one revision, the lint screen may be in the door opening on some units and in the top panel on others. It usually sits next to a washer on a 240-volt outlet.
If an automatic cycle stops while clothes are still damp, we clean the moisture-sensing bars where the dryer has them and look at the vent. A start button that does nothing leads us to the door switch and the thermal fuse. Thumping is usually a roller or the belt.
The model and serial on the label tell us which revision you own, so we read them before any part is ordered. The price is given in writing, and a 30-day workmanship warranty follows the repair.

Why does the MEDC465HW stop before clothes are dry?
If the dryer has moisture-sensing bars, residue can fool them. We clean the bars, check the vent for restricted airflow and test the thermostat. If those are fine, we look at the control. You see the price first.
Where is the lint screen on this dryer?
It depends on the build: some units have it in the door opening and some in the top panel. Either way, we check the screen housing and the duct, because lint there causes many service calls.
The drum thumps. Is that urgent?
Do not ignore it. A worn roller or belt can fail and leave the drum stuck. We open the cabinet, find the worn part and give you a written price before replacing it.
