Dryer squeals each load, and have to run loads through twice the normal cycle to dry completely.
For model number GTDP740GD0WW

Hi Wanda, thank you for your question. You may want to look at your rollers, idler arm, and your motor for being the issue. It sounds like they may either need to be changed because your drum may not be spinning as fast as it needs to be. I would suggest checking your pulley and rollers first. Good luck with your repair.

The dryer drum turned ok, but the gas heat did not start.
First I found and watched three videos on how to open the dryer and replace the igniter.
Then I opened the dryer, but I did not remove the belt as suggested in the video, and then I removed the ignitor and flame detecter as the videos had shown.
I got on-line and ordered the new parts from PartsSelect in the afternoon and had them in my hands the next morning by 9:30 am.
I installed the new parts and everything worked fine again. You must be very careful with the igniter to not touch it with hands or anything else. I practiced puting in the old parts first.

Gas dryer was not getting hot and smelled like gas inside drum
Removed lower front panel and then front including door (need to remove the top to access screws.) Replaced both the ingiter and heat detector. The tricky part was getting access to the long tunnel-like bracket that houses the igniter. Washer and Dryer are in a tight cutout space in very small laundry room.
