First removed the power and front panel. Then in order to get to the damaged cooling selector switch, I needed to first drill out three riviets holding the small front pannel that the switch and thermostat selector switches are mounted on.
Then it was a simple matter to unscrew two small screws holding the broken cooling selec ... Read more tor switch in place.
At this point, I unhooked each wire (about 7 of them) from their terminal connector on the back of the switch, and reapplied each to the new switch. After I was done I then mounted the new switch with the two screws and realigned the pannel.
The only thing remaining was to install the small pannel using three pop rivets and slide on a new knob, and reinstall the large A/C front cover.
FYI, The new replacement switch and knob were perfectly identical, and worked like a charm.

Unpluged unit from receptacle. Simply slid the unit forward a bit (to get to screws after removing face), removed four screws, pulled the wired sensor from front of grill. Reversed & replaced everything, plugged unit back in and turned on - all working well. Easy job.

Removed the back - Saw the broken clips on the base of the dryer (the wires to the motor were pulling out because the motor was slipping).
Guessed that the parts were motor clips (no pix in the web site!)
Got the parts in post - they were identical except needed some rubber grips inside to hold tight (Used pieces of ... Read more bike tire inner tube cut to fit for this.) Attached clips. Works fine!!
