How do i remove the top?
For model number WGD8800YC2
PartSelect logo
Hello Bill and thanks for writing. emoving a Dryer's Top For some dryers, you'll need to remove screws at the top of the back panel. Remove the screws from beneath the lint trap. Push a stiff, thin putty knife between the top and one side, about 2 1/2 inches from the front corner. Use a putty knife to release the clips that secure the top. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime.

Dryer door catch broken
After a few years of slamming the dryer door (at least that is what my husband says), the catch on the dryer door broke. Using pliers (I used needle nose) squeeze the outer edges of the catch together (vertically). With it compressed, it should slide out easily. My husband had jacked with ours prior to the repair, so the broken piece in the door was actually sideways and would not fit through the hole. Using a screwdriver, I pushed that piece into the door (it lives in the door somewhere now). I was then able to slide out the rest of the old catch. Compress the new catch and insert it into the hole in the door. Push it in until it clicks into place. DONE! Happy Drying!

very loud squeeling sound
The issue was the idler pulley. First I began opening up the front panel based on a youtube video but soon realized the model was slightly different and required a lot more items to remove. I saw the pulley in the back with nothing in the way so I put the front panel crap back on and removed the rear panel. There it was, very simple to remove and replace. I'm not looking forward to drum rollers though. Hopefully they're aren't as difficult as they appear.
