Loud squealing comming from the dryer
I checked out YouTube and found some really helpful videos from various appliance guys. The parts came fast and I knocked out the repairs in about an hour. Replacing the front and rear bearings was a breeze and no more squealing. Just like new

Dryer Belt Squealing
I followed the provided video precisely. Made the job quite easy. My only problem is I'm 6'2", 275 lbs. with bad knees. Can't go at it exactly as shown in the video because I can't squat down in front of the dryer without pain. Called in a neighbor of smaller stature for him to come from one side, and me from the other. Worked flawlessly. Video is excellent. I do recommend wearing gloves and/or long sleeve shirt. I cut up my arms a bit, but that could have been easily avoided.

Timer would not rotate from initial setting.
Loosened 4 spline head screws from top of panel. Tipped panel forward and interchanged wire spade lugs from defective timer to new timer. Removed old timer with a twist, installed new timer with an opposite twist. Put panel in place and re-installed the four screws. (Tip: the timer is held in place with a spring loaded flange. A thin blade screw driver can lift this flange to allow the twist motion for removing the timer.)

Cyclical Squeak While Drying
There is a video for this repair that partselect.com did. I watched the video . These are perfect instructions. Total time for repair was 40 minutes and this is the first time I ever worked on a clothes dryer. Make sure you have a #2 square screwdriver before you start.

Dishwasher would not start
Took the back off/there were six phillips head screws. Took the protective cover off the Interlock Switches and found the problem. One of the buttons was jambed and would not move. I pulled the switch up and pulled the connecting wires. This took a little bit of doing as the connectors have been set for over 8 years. I used a pair of needle nose pliers. I reconnected the new switch and punched both switches and the washer started. It was an easy repair after that, putting everything back in reverse order.

Making a very loud squeaking noise
At first diagnosed the problem watching you tube videos but I did not open the machine. It took awhile to learn the first step to diagnose the issue is to find out if the squeak comes from the front or back of the machine. Mine was in the front. Once I did this I ordered the glides. When they arrived I opened up the machine and found out both the glides and the plastic piece upon which the drum turns and the glides attach were totally shot. I then ordered up that plastic piece. The repair was a breeze. Opening the machine, installing the pieces and closing up took about half an hour max. My reaction is the engineering behind these pieces is not up to par. Seemingly paper thin plastic can't stand up to the constant turning of the drum. As an ordinary consumer I expect much better. The old adage that they don't build em like they used to applies here. I was surprised by what was under the hood as they say. I almost had bought a new machine, and also consulted a repairmen which led me to believe a new machine would be my best option. However, I gave it a shot after doing some internet research and solved the problem for a fraction of the cost. And while I was in there I cleaned out the stray lint!!
