part of door hinge was worn and allowed door to sag
Removed all screws on door EXCEPT the ones with star heads.
Separated two parts of door and undid screws holding hinge in place.
Removed hinge and replaced with new hinge.
Put two faces of door back together and installed door back on dryer.
To be honest a ... Read more nd explain, I had previously taken apart the door and removed the star screws which allowed the other pieces of the door holding the window to fall apart.
After some difficulty, I was able to put the seal back on and re-install the metal window holders which is why I said it only took 15 minutes after the part arrived and why I accented NOT removing the star screws.
There were a couple of other screws which probably didn't need removing but they didn't cause any problem with the installation.
After putting the door back on, I had to manually twist the door a small amount because it didn't want to keep the button depressed which kept the motor running which turns the basket and heats the clothes.
The door had been causing some trouble for a couple years and we had obviously closed the door with a little extra force when it ''caught'' on the door frame causing it to bend a small amount.
It only took one adjustment and worked fine after that.
