Samsung DV45H7000EW/A2-01 dryer Parts

The Samsung DV45H7000EW dryer has a 7.4 cu. ft. capacity, which is considered large capacity for a full-size front-load dryer. For the exact specifications and model details, we recommend checking the DV45H7000EW owner's manual.

A 7.4 cu. ft. drum is designed to handle bulky and high-volume laundry more efficiently, so you can dry more items per cycle.

• Fits larger mixed loads (towels, jeans, everyday clothing)
• Handles bulky items better (comforters, blankets) when loaded correctly
• Helps reduce the number of loads compared with smaller-capacity dryers
• Works best when you avoid packing the drum tightly (airflow matters)

Here are key specs commonly used when planning space and load size for this model family.

Capacity affects drying performance and fabric care. A large-capacity drum helps items tumble freely, improving airflow and reducing overdrying, especially on sensor-dry cycles.

For the Samsung DV45H7000EW dryer, the heating element part number is DC47-00019A. If you’re replacing the heater, confirm your exact configuration and wiring layout in the DV45H7000EW owner's manual before ordering.

Samsung dryers can be listed with either the bare element or a complete heater assembly. For DV45H7000EW, the parts list commonly shows:

• Heating element: Samsung dryer heating element DC47-00019A
• Heating element assembly: Dryer heating element assembly DC97-14486A (includes the element mounted in the housing on many builds)

A new heating element can fail quickly if airflow is restricted or a safety device is open. We recommend these checks first:

• Clean the lint screen and confirm the lint screen cover is seated correctly.
• Inspect and clear the vent duct to the outside; strong airflow matters.
• Check for a tripped breaker (electric dryers often use a 2-pole breaker; one side can trip and leave the dryer running with no heat).
• If the dryer overheated, also check the dryer high-limit thermostat DC47-00018A and the dryer thermal cut-off fuse DC96-00887A.
• Look for heat damage at connections; the dryer heating element terminal block DC65-00013A is a common fix if terminals are burnt.

The DV45H7000EW uses high-wattage electric heat (the manual lists a 5300 W heater rating for electric versions), so proper airflow and intact safety thermostats are essential for safe, consistent drying and to protect the new element.

You can order the correct heating element and related parts from the parts list for your DV45H7000EW, or search by model on Sears PartsDirect.

To reset your Samsung DV45H7000EW dryer, we recommend a simple power reset: turn the dryer off, cut power at the breaker (or unplug it), wait 5 minutes, then restore power and press Power. This clears many temporary control glitches; it does not fix airflow or heating problems.

• Press Power to turn the dryer off.
• Unplug the dryer or switch the dryer circuit breaker OFF.
• Wait 5 minutes.
• Restore power.
• Press Power, then start a cycle with Start/Pause.
• If the display shows cycle completion text such as “0”, press Start/Pause or Power to clear it and reselect a cycle (normal behavior on this series).

These checks address the most common causes that look like a “needs reset” situation.

• Door not fully closed: a failed door switch can prevent starting; see dryer door switch DC64-00828B.
• Overheating or restricted airflow: clean the lint screen and confirm strong airflow at the outside vent hood.
• Heating problems: if the drum tumbles but there is no heat, inspect the heating circuit components.
• Control not responding: if buttons do not respond after a power reset, the control may be at fault.

A reset clears temporary electronic states, but drying performance and repeated shutdowns are usually caused by airflow restriction, overheating protection opening, or a failed heating component. Fixing the root cause prevents repeat failures and long dry times.

• Use the DV45H7000EW owner's manual for control panel behavior (Power, Start/Pause, indicator lights) and operating tips.
• For code-related troubleshooting, use Samsung dryer error codes.

If your Samsung DV45H7000EW dryer tumbles but does not heat or suddenly takes much longer to dry, the heating element is a prime suspect. We confirm it by checking airflow first, then testing the heater for continuity with power disconnected; a bad element reads open.

• Dryer runs but clothes stay cool and damp
• Dry times get much longer on heated cycles
• Heat comes and goes during a cycle
• Burning smell from the cabinet (stop the cycle and inspect)
• Lint buildup or a crushed vent behind the dryer

The troubleshooting section in the DV45H7000EW owner's manual calls out lint filter and exhaust duct restrictions as key causes of “doesn’t heat” and “doesn’t dry.”

• Clean the lint screen before every load
• Check the outside vent hood; it must open freely
• Inspect and clean the exhaust duct (at least yearly)
• Use 4-inch rigid metal ducting where possible

1. Unplug the dryer or switch off the breaker.
2. Access the heater terminals.
3. Use a multimeter:
   • Continuity: good element shows continuity; no continuity means the coil is broken.
   • Resistance: most electric dryer elements read in a low-ohms range; OL/infinite indicates an open element.

A restricted vent can overheat the heater housing and trip safety controls, so fixing airflow helps prevent repeat heater and thermostat failures.
