How To Install a Dryer Cord

By Timothy Thiele, About.com Guide

The first step of installing a dryer cord is to uncover the electrical connection box. This is located in the back of the machine. Look for a cover plate with a 3/4" hole next to it. This hole is where the cord will be inserted to make the connection. Take out your toolbox and get out your nut driver set. You will need a nut driver to remove the screw holding the cover in place. Turn the screw counter-clockwise and remove the screw. Now, remove the cover plate and this will expose the electrical connection screws.

• Remove The Electrical Connection Cover
• Choose The Right Cord
• Insert The Dryer Cord and Connect
