evidently the pulley spring on video was very very very weak
the pulley spring took so much pressure to hold it down it took 3 men and a boy to hold it and place it in position to to get the belt on. Also there is not enough room to get your arms and hands in without getting some small cuts.Ultimately I removed the screws in the back of the dryer and spread the side of the dryer out to gain proper access. It was an easy repair if the spring would not have been so strong.

Replace the front slides and glides on the dryer
To get to the slides, needed to take off the front panel, the top and then can loosen the front of the dryer. Pull it out enough to get to the slides and replace them.

a lot
started with replacing the belt and tension pulley which I purchased from another source. I found your videos on line and they are great. easy to follow. Realized I needed the bottom vent assembly and your prices were better than my local supplier. It was easy to replace thanks to your video. It was nice that you included it in the final order status. The only problems. Did not know the duct felt seal was included with the new duct assembly. I ordered the wrong bearing slides, web site showed both green and white for my model. I now realize I should replace the upper bearing housing. Can I return the unused parts, unopened and have that put as a credit to my next order? Thanks

Dryer Not Starting
First I replaced the timer, but dryer still did not start. took apart dryer, jumper out door and componet near motor to see what problem was and to be able to run dryer while opened up. Actually motor had seized up just enough to not allow motor to start rotating. Lubricated motor shaft and rotated motor for oil to work its way in. Tried starting again and motor started. Buttoned dryer back up and reconnected wires to appropriate places and started dryer again and again.Worked for 4 loads of laundry and still working for 3 loads on Wednesday. Working fine

Previous nob cracked
The shaft of the previous nob had cracked and even super glue would not hold it together. The dryer timer could no longer be set without it. Slipped it off and slipped on the new one and it worked perfectly.

Purchased a used dryer & lint filter had holes due to rust
On my GE Dryer the lint filter is located inside the door at the bottom. The filter can just be pulled out by hand & a new one pushed into place

Dryer timer wasn’t working with auto dry or time dry
When I ordered it in the email receipt were directions- just click installation instructions- I also looked at u tube video by just typing in GE Dryer timer repair. It took longer to clean the floor where the dryer sat for years since we never move it. Cleaning time is included in the 15 minutes— You will feel great since just saved a ton of money. So glad I found you for future issues with appliance repair. There are U Tube videos to fix everything. Robert Maheu Huntington Beach

The dial on the timer would no longer engage (knob would just spin)
I followed the Youtube video created by PartSelect and it was SUPER easy.
Removed dial from front panel
I unscrewed the back panel, which released the knob panel on the front and tipped that forward to access the timer device.
Released the locking tab and spun the entire timer counter clockwise until it released. Pulled each connecting wire off and immediately replaced it on the new timer so I didn't mix up the order.
Once wires were attached, I replaced timer turning clockwise until it locked in place.
Re-positioned front panel and replaced back panel installing screws.
Replaced dial and dryer was ready to go!
