Screeching-metal on metal!
Thanks to all the comments and instructional video this 'Mom' was able to chose a couple of parts that I felt would fix the noise and replaced them myself! Took me closer to 2 hours due to the top on my dryer came off a little different than in the video and you definitely need the ring pliers if your are replacing the Drum Support Rollers! So borrow or buy a pair if you don't own them before you start :) Now I don't have to turn the dryer off to get my headache (from the screeching/squeaking) to stop. Quiet! Love It!

Clothes were not drying completely
Unplug the dryer. Remove the bottom panal, 2 screws(nut driver works best). Vacuum out the lint and dust accumulation from underneath(no sense in getting dirty). On this model both parts to be replaced were located on the back panel, above and below each other. Using a pair of pliers(do not pull on the wire) pull on the clips and remove the attached wires. Using a 5/16 nut driver remove the screws and replace the parts. As a magician might say "TA DA" your finished. Replace the bottom panel and begin drying your clothes.

Dryer was making metal to metal grinding noise
Before tearing down unit the video on this site is very usefull. After removing tub noticed cylinder glides were worn out and tub had been rubbing glide bracket. Checked rollers on rear of tub and they seemed fine. The belt tension roller seemed stiff. One glide bracket was worn nearly thru. Replaced tension roller, glides and one glide bracket. Since I had unit pulled down replaced belt. Cleaned unit out good, re-assembled and wife happy. If you had tools and parts in hand you could do job in an hour.

sreaching metal on metal sound with a added loud squeal for your listening pleasure.
Hardest part was getting the dryer apart. mine was held together by two snap in clips on the top front pryed those up with a flat head screwdriver then 4 hex head screws and i was in. i watched a couple of YouTube videos of different types of dryer repairs. i am not a mechanic by any means but i would say the repair was very easy. parts were shipped fast so i was up and running quickly and for a lot less money. plus i earned alt of browned points with the wife.

Dryer not turning on.
Researched the common problem with "dryer not turning on", and tested the top three problems. Removed the dryer front casing and door, unbolted front dryer plate. Used a volt meter on two of the temp gauges, which were fine. Removed the upper back plate of the dryer to the wiring for the knobs and buttons. Used the volt meter on the dryer start button, which was also fine. Went back around to the front and removed the door switch. Tested it with the volt meter and bingo. Replaced that part, dryer works like normal.

Dryer made intermittant LOUD SQUEAL noises
We replaced the Drum Rollers, Belt and Glides the first weekend. This DID NOT stop the noise(very loud squealing noise). I decided it had to be the Idler. Instead of replacing just the Wheel, I replaced the whole unit. Took the front of the Dryer off again, took out the Tumbler, removed the 2 screws on the motor assembly tray, moved it a couple inches forward to gain access to the Idler. R&R the Idler( a little contortion for the arms and wrists, but not horrible) and put it all back to together. Works perfectly and ZERO NOISE. YOU CAN DO THIS. Just be patient and give yourself an hour to save $180.00!!!

Screeching noises
My dryer was making some awful noises. First thought was the belt. Eventually isolated it to the wheel on the idler lever. I had the driver taken apart and could cause the noise by turning the wheel by hand. I decided to replace the support rollers and drum glides at the same time. I highly recommend watching the installation video. I can't tell you how much it helped to see the repair done. Especially the magic incantation on how to open up the dryer to make the repair. For me the most difficult part was getting the new belt on during re-assembly. There is very little room to work underneath the drum to connect the belt to the idler pully and motor. I was successful in connecting those first and then working it around the drum second.
