I unpluged the machine. Pried out the old switch with the tip of a screw driver. Pried off the connectors, there was not enough extra wire for me to connect the new switch through the front of the machine. I pushed the new switch in place. Using the screw driver I carefully pried open the top front of the machine { there were 2 plastic spring clips securing the top}. I placed a wash bucket on the drum to hold the top open , connected the 2 connectors to the switch and snapped top back in place.
The catch (female part) on the dryer developed a tiny crack. The door latch (male part) could not fit securely so the door would not stay closed.
I watched a You Tube video first. I used a screwdriver to loosen the part that was attached to the dryer. I pulled it out of the dryer with pliers. I pushed the new part into place. The old latch worked fine so I did not replace it.
Followed video instructions, easy installation. Unfortunately it didn't fix the problem. Plan to take back off and check belt, etc before ordering another part.
My son kept slamming the door wrong and eventually the catch broke and two and feel out. My husband is the handy man of the family, but has been so busy that I was just duck tapping the door close. Finally, I decided to see if I could look up the part. Found it on here, ordered it, and replaced it all myself! Proud mother right here! Very easy. Works great.
Another parts website, instructed taking apart the dryer top and front and electrical connections etc. I thought I'd have to buy a new dryer!. Then I found your website, and I was laughing so hard, because your instructions were so simple and logical and took me under a minute to do the "repair". I used a plastic ice scraper instead of a metal putty knife (so as not to scratch the finish) to pry out the broken part. Then using my fingers on one hand I pushed in the new part. I closed the door to make sure the dryer started. It did. The end. Also I was told it would be a couple days till I received the ordered part. It was here in less than 24 hrs. Thank you for your excellent help.
