Followed the instructions in the video and it was SO easy! Now my dryer works great!

order knew door seal fix was a snap just Snap in place

This repair was so easy. All you need is a 1/4 inch nut driver or straight socket, a pair of needle nose pliers & a flat screwdriver,file or anything flat to pop the top of the dryer open. There are 4 wires to remove and 4 nuts. take the old parts out and replace with the new and replace the wires. Hardest part for me was making sure I didn't drop the nuts.I recommend watching the video. My dryer is working great.

Pushed in the Door Catch, and it was fixed.

I had to open the top of the dryer which was different for me. All of the dryers I've ever owned have had a panel on the back to remove. Fairly difficult to get to the fuse itself. I had to remove the heating element and use pliers to take the connectors off the leads. It worked for a few days and is back down again. I hope I didn't damage the element while taking it out but, luckily, I have a spare dryer so I haven't had a chance to look at it again yet.

Identified the rollers as the root cause of the drum not freely rotating. They also squeaked a little at the beginning of any cycle. I replaced the rear rollers and shafts using the parts from the roller replacement kit. Easy to do. The hardest parts was re-installing the belt.

Ordered part ( door latch ) flowed instructions easily fixed same.

Found the heating element under top of dryer towards the back and replaced it

At first I thought I had the wrong part. But a quick call to the service number solved the problem. Seems the only part now available is a double wide strip with two sets of molded clips. Simple solution was to pull the strip apart into two. Worked like a charm.

I unclipped the top of the dryer for access to the heating coils. I unscrewed the bracket holding the high limit thermostat (the heating element was directly below the high limit thermostat). I removed one screw holding the heating element in place, and then removed the faulty heating element. I checked the old heating element and the old high limit thermostat with a multimeter to confirm that they were faulty - both the heating coil and the HL thermostat had continuity but the coils looked like they needed to be replaced (not rusty, but dingy). I installed the new heating element and the new HL thermostat, closed the top of the dryer and ran the dryer - it worked :) Thanks partselect.com!

Unplug the dryer. Take a large flat head screwdriver and pop the hood loose from the retaining brackets on the front of the dryer and raise.Next, unhook the wiring from the thermostat and heating element with needle nosed pliers located in the back left corner. Use a 5mm socket to remove the thermostat bracket and the heating element bracket.Remove faulty part and replace. Replace heating element and tighten.Replace thermostat on the retaining bracket and tighten. Plug your wires back in and close the hood.Plug Dryer back in.

just like the training video showed, and was very happy at how it came fast, installed easy and back in the drying business.

i ordered a new filter and put in in the dryer to replace the broken one. everything worked out fine. and is working fine now.
