Due to weather exposure, the handle fatigued and broke in several parts.
You simply pry the old handle off with a flathead screwdriver, and then line up the new handle and snap it into place. It took less than 30 seconds! A breeze.

Banging coming from the dryer with light loads or when clothes we close to being dried
1. Use flat blade to compress clips so top could be raised. Use Philips to remove 2 screws holding front on. Popped front off and then removed old worn and broken glides. Had to lift the drum slightly when placing the front back on. Screwed in the 2 screws to hold the front on. Lowered and locked top. Be careful not to pinch any wires..

Drum stopped spinning with any kind of load
I suspected a worn belt and that's what it was. I watched 2 videos on belt replacement and it was not a hard fix. The only "problems" I could foresee would be moving the drum around if you are not that strong. Its not terribly heavy, just a little awkward. I also sliced the top of my hand a little on the underside of the cabinet when moving the drum. Being a little more careful that wouldn't have happened. Part plus shipping was less then $20, and we now have a great working dryer again. I also got a zap when I forgot I had plugged it back in and was putting the inside screws back and the screwdriver crossed some wires. Nothing bad, just a quick jolt. Remember to unplug it until you're all done!

Heating Element burned up/ No Heat
Pulled front off dryer, popped the top up, took belt off pulley, pulled drum up and out just far enough to pull element out and put new one in. Very easy and quick. PartSelect always sends good quality parts and very quickly. I will use them for all my repairs.

plastic dryer handle was broken during move
Used a flathead screw driver to pry broken handle out and snapped new handle right back in. Took no time at all. It was great and to top it off, I received the ordered item within 2 working days! Thanks so much. (I do not really know the age of the dryer as it belonged to my Mother who has been relocated into Hospice).

Broken drive belt
Raised the lid, removed 2 little screws,slipped the front panel off, disconnected the safety switch, vacuumed everything, slipped on the drive belt and reversed my way out. It was way more easy than filling a grease gun!

The Knob was Broken
No real repair. The part of the knob that connected to the dryer was cracked. Therefore, the knob would not turn. The key was we found the exact part easily on this site, it was in stcok and we got it within 4 days. The transaction was great. Only bummer was the shipping cost was as much as the knob.
