We pulled out the old lint filter, cleaned out all the lint that had gotten down inside the dryer due to the broken filter. We then replaced it with the new filter. It is now drying much better and the lint is not getting down inside the machine any longer.

5 minutes later I came back because I heard giggling. She was chatting but had found an exploded view of the door and the part. She was very pleased with herself!
