Gas Dryer Not Heating
Took the back off of the dryer, looked on "parts select" found what I thought might be the problem. Got the parts the next day. Put on new thermal fuse, then put on cycling thermostat. Wasn't sure which it needed, so put both on. Put the back of the dryer on hooked the gas up, hooked up to electric, & turned the dryer on. Back in business, everything works, dryer works as if nothing was wrong. Thanks to "parts select" saved me a repair bill.

Squeaking noise and stopping during drying cycle
Replaced the Drum Roller, Belt, Belt Tensioner and Rear Drum Seal by watching the video that was attached with the order form from PartSelect. Removed screws from lint filter, raised the top by sliding it forward a small amount, able to raise top and leaned it against a wall. Then removed two screws from front panel and lifted front up slightly while holding the drum and removed it from front of dryer and placed it out of the way. Loosened the tensioner pulley to remove the belt and once that was done pulled the drum out and replaced the drum rollers (by looking at the video). The rear drum seal was the most aggravating part in getting it off and cleaning it up. Was a little messy putting it back on and then just reversed everything to put it back together. It is working properly now. Thanks to the video. PartSelect parts came earlier than I expected they would and I appreciated that very much.

No heat
It took longest to take apart and test to see which part was bad. I had never done it before. Got it apart and used the drawings on Parts Select to find location of parts. Testing only few minutes found bad thermostat.Ordered parts, and they came in 1 1/2 days. I replaced both thermostats being they were in the kit. Actual repair took maybe 15 minutes. Vacuumed out everything I could. Took lint trap out a vacuumed. Put it back together, plugged it in, heated like new. All time told I would say little over hour.

Broken Dryer Belt
Ordered entire Maintenance kit - good call because it was the tensioner pulley that failed and cut the belt. To replace, had to raise the top (2 screws in lint screen slot)and pull the entire front off (2 screws - 1/ea on top inner edge of front door panel then lift it up and out) Replaced both rollers, then used the parts kit shipping box to prop up the front of the drum while installing the belt and tensioner pully. Re-assembled in reverse order, works fine.

no heat, dryer would not shut off
I went to partselect.com, input my model number and problem, I clicked on the right solution and watched a short video on how to repair the problem. Ordered the parts which arrived the next day. It took me ten minutes to replace the two parts I had ordered and the problem was solved. I probably saved a couple hundred dollars doing this repair myself..
