A loud squeeling sound
Had the macnine apart before ordering the Bearing Assembly. Reading other comments convinced me to order the Bearing Assembly. Parts were shipped very quickly after ordering and following the instructions on the web site things went back together easily.

Dryer was squeaking loudly.
followed the video instructions....easy as pie. Glad i bought the belt too....the belt on my dryer was very worn. Changed the bearing with the kit. Very easy to do. The whole job was done in an hour and a half....back together and running without the squeak. Glad i repaired instead of buying a new dryer. Next time i have a problem with an appliance, i will be checking PartSelect first.

Squeaking and no heat
The main drum bearing was bad and vibrated the heater coil causing the coil to break, real easy fix, take off top cover of dryer, take off front panels and door assembly, lift up drum and pull forward, replace parts =)

The dryer was squeaking loudly and cloths were getting caught between the frame and drum and burning.
I watched the videos provided on this website and followed the instructions in the order confirmation e-mail. These were both very helpful

both the upper and lower drum seal were worn. had purchased the upper seal previously and replaced both at the same time
My machine is stack washer dryer model. First remove d the door, control panel and the front panel where the seal is. Removed the old seals and glued on the new ones in placed. Cleaned and vacuumed the unit while the glue was setting up. Also had to replace the spring clip on the vent fan. Try to find a replacement clip on a Sunday afternoon. Put the uni t back together . Machine runs quiet as a mouse and no more stains and holes in my cloths.

No heat to dryer
Your tutorial video of how to change out the heating element was so helpful, it gave me the confidence to tackle it on my own. It was so detailed, there was no worries of not knowing what to do. Everything was exactly as the video showed, and was very easy to replace this heating element. My wife was thrilled we saved money on doing it ourselves, and grateful to have the dryer working with 3 kids and a husband who works in concrete! Thank You to the Parts Select team for putting such a helpful site for people to utilize!

Dryer Squeaking
Found instructions on "UTube"some of the screws were in a different position but you can see them. While you have the dryer apart it's a great time to clean it and also as long as you've gone this far replace the belt,it's probably time.

I shut the door too hard, and the old latch fell down into the inside of the dryer.
The new latch easily snapped it into place.

Loud screeching noise until the dryer warmed up
My order confirmation email had a "how to" video for installing the parts I ordered. I just watched the video, and the installation was ridiculously easy! We've put up with the obnoxious screeching noise for probably about two years, and with about $40 in parts and less than an hour of work time, we have practically a new dryer!!

Dryer not producing heat
Once the part arrived, I logged back into my order and watched the part installation video as I did the repair. The video was perfect, it made doing the repair easy and safe. Best part is I didn't end up with any extra screws which was good.

Dryer making scrubbing noise while running
This is a front load dryer. First unbolt top cover of dryer. Then unbolt screws and connections to control panel. Next unbolt all screws holding dryer door and front bottom panel. Next take belt off of drum and slide out drum from the front. From inside of drum remove 3 screws and remove bearing then put new bearing on and bolt up the same way you take old one off. Using an 8mm socket or wrench remove plastic bearing cage located at rear of dryer. When unbolting there is a retaining clip and small steel ball to be removed from back of dryer. Replace this the same way you take it off. He sure to grease the bearing cage then replace everything back from putting the drum in first to your last step bolting on top cover of dryer. Hope this helps anyone doing this repair.
