Maytag MGDB766FW Gas Dryer Repair

Most common issues on this model

  1. Heat that is inconsistent from load to load
  2. Drum that is hard to turn by hand
  3. Odd clicking when the dryer first runs
  4. Smell of scorched lint

The MGDB766FW is a gas dryer from the Maytag Bravos line, listed under one number. It looks much like the MGDB765F, but the number is different, so we match parts to the label and not the look of the cabinet.

Heat that varies from load to load makes us check the vent and the thermostats before the burner, since a half-blocked duct will behave differently with each load. A drum that is hard to turn by hand points to the rollers, idler or bearing. Clicking at start is often the igniter circuit or the gas valve working, and a scorched-lint smell means the dryer should be off until it is inspected.

We confirm the model and serial from the label, quote in writing and give a 30-day workmanship warranty on the work.

MGDB766FWMGDB766FW questions
Why is the heat uneven on my MGDB766FW?

Variable airflow is the most likely reason. We clean the lint housing and duct and test the thermostats, igniter and valve coils so each load gets steady heat.

Why is the drum stiff when I turn it by hand?

A seized roller or idler bearing, or a belt caught on a pulley. With the cabinet open, we spin each part to find the one that binds and quote it.

Is MGDB766FW the same as MGDB765F?

No, they are separate numbers in the same family. Some parts may be common, but we order using your full number from the label, so the part that arrives is the one that fits your dryer.
