Dryer Element Not Heating
Daughter and I lifted top of dryer, carefully removed old element and thermostat, watching as we went how the old ones came out, and replaced with new one! Dryer working just fine!

Heating Element
It took longer to gather the tools vs changing the part. I was unsure how to start. Once I got started it was very easy it took 5 minutes.

Dryer doesn't heat
I used a butter knife to push the spring clips that hold the top down, this was the hardest part of the repair. Once the top was open it took about 20 minutes to pull out the old part and replace with the new, including running the dryer on high for a few minutes to get rid of the new element smell. Always unplug before attempting any electrical work.

Heating element in dryer went out
Opened up the top of the dryer. Had to use the internet to find the broken part since the last time I replaced a heating element it was at the bottom. This one was at the top behind the drum. Disconnected three screws holding the old element in place and the wiring. Pulled the old element and put the new one in replacing the wiring and the screws.

Dryer won't heat
Contrary to instructions that I found on the web, the element is not accessed through the back. Pop the top of the dryer up and the element is visible in the top of the back . Pretty easy job.

Squealing Berring
I had to replace the whole motor, Idler spring and idler Pulley Wheel. It went well but I wish I could have replaced just the berring and not the whole motor.

Dryer would not start
After I unplugged the unit, I used a flat screwdriver to pop the top open at the front, then tipped it back on the hinge. I then used a multi-meter to test resistance through any switch or safety device I could find. The thermal fuse was the hardest one to get to and was the only one that showed open, having no resistance. I had to remove the screw that holds the heating element in place and carefully slide the element out of the way. The fuse is held in place by a metal strip or retainer and it has to be lifted up and right as you remove it. Unplug the wires from the old fuse and put in the new one. Then reverse the order of dis-assembly, plug it in and away you go, as long as that is the only issue, which mine was.

Dryer stopped and would not restart while drying load
Disconnected dryer main power supply from wall socket. Opened dryer top,Thermal Fuse is mounted on the Heating Element support bracket on the upper left hand side of the back wall of the dryer. Disconnected wires from damaged Thermal Fuse. Removed hex bolt securing Thermal Fuse Bracket with a nut driver for easier access. Pull up on Thermal Fuse support bracket and remove. When reinstalling Thermal Fuse bracket be sure and line up securing clips with the slots on the Heating Element bracket. Once these are alinged push down until Thermal Fuse Bracket is secure and proceed installing the hex bolt to finish installation. Reconnect both wires and dryer should be ready for operation.

Drying not heating/drying clothes
I unclipped the top of the dryer for access to the heating coils. I unscrewed the bracket holding the high limit thermostat (the heating element was directly below the high limit thermostat). I removed one screw holding the heating element in place, and then removed the faulty heating element. I checked the old heating element and the old high limit thermostat with a multimeter to confirm that they were faulty - both the heating coil and the HL thermostat had continuity but the coils looked like they needed to be replaced (not rusty, but dingy). I installed the new heating element and the new HL thermostat, closed the top of the dryer and ran the dryer - it worked :) Thanks partselect.com!
