I’m going to be ordering a front baring for the dryer. One of the metal pads is missing from the left hand side. So I’m going to order 2 pads. And replace the old one as well. What is the difference between the metal and the white plastic ones?? Because my dryer is noisy and the belt is in good shape but as I stated it’s missing a metal pad so I figure I will replace it all on the front bearing. And info would be great. Thanks!
Hello Jason, thank you for your question. For many dryers, the manufacturer requires 2 of the White pads PS755842 and 2 of the dark grey(green) pads PS6447706. The do not say what the difference is but recommends that when you change them to change them all at the same time. We have installation videos for both for you to access to see if this is a repair for you. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

The heat does not turn off when the motor is not running. I am having trouble locating schematics for this model. I suspect the "motor switch" is defective, if there is one on this model. Also called a centrifugal switch. Is it part of the motor ?

It was pretty easy. After already taking apart the dryer to install a new belt I knew exactly my plan of action. I removed the two screws that hold the top panel of the dryer to the front panel. I then removed the top panel and removed the screws that hold the front to each side panel. I than pulled the front away from the cabinet and

Basically, I followed the same steps a prior person posted. 1.Removed the two screws inside the door, on the top part of the opening. 2.Lifted up and removed the top. 3.Removed two screws holding the front panel in place. 4.Held up the drum while removing the front panel. I carefully turned the panel so I could get at
... Read morethe drum bearing without pulling the wires connecting it to the front panel. The wires are not very long, so I had to be careful not to pull on them. 5.Carefully pried off the old drum bearing, using just my hands. It was fairly tight, and popped out just as I started to worry if I was putting too much pressure on it. 6.Checked to see how the old felt was installed, then I pulled out the old felt. 7.Inserted the new felt, being careful to insert one end into a slot the same way the original was installed. 8.Inserted the new slides into the new drum bearing. The gray slides went in at the eleven and one o'clock positions, the white slides went in at ten and two o'clock. 9.Removed a surplus plastic piece from the new drum bearing (where the light comes through). 10.Inserted the new drum bearing, putting the bottom tabs in first, then pivoting it into place. I squeezed it into place to make sure it was tight. 11.Lifted up the drum and put the front panel back on. 12.Screwed the front panel back on, using the two screws. 13.Carefully put the top back on. 14.Screwed in the two screws inside the front door to fasten down the top. That was it! I started up the dryer and it worked fine. No more squeaking. About the only thing odd about the repair is why PartSelect sells each slide separately (i.e., I had to order 2 white slides and 2 gray slides). I can't imagine replacing just one, so why not package them in pairs, or maybe even all four in one package. At any rate, the repair was easy, and a lot cheaper than having someone come out to fix it.
First of all, unplug the dryer. I removed the two screws on the front of the cabinet to remove the top. I then took out the screws to remove the dial panel. Release the belt for the drum through the access hole in the rear of the dryer. Remove the front cover and pull the drum assembly out.

This job was easy for me as I am a tinkerer by nature. The hardest part of the whole job was waiting on the part, which by the way was ordered on a Sunday evening and I had the replacement in my hands and back in the dryer running by 1:00 PM on the following Tuesday!
I book marked this website and WILL refer it to others who simply need a repair, not a costly new appliance!
