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..

Broken rotary knob
Easy peasy! It is as easy as lining up the knob with the D shaft on the dryer. There is a small piece/ring around the shaft that can still be stuck up inside so if you can't get the knob to sit flush with the dryer, peak inside and slide it off with a pair of pliers (the repair video shows this clearly if you need an example). I was done in 2 minutes, including the time it took to open the package!

My dryers was making a loud thumping sound. Like it was off balance.
I Took the front off and saw the cushion was gone around the drum and glids were worn down. I ordered both parts . It took 5 minutes to glue the cushion back on around the drum and 2 minutes to snap the drum glids on.But what I couldnt believe was the amount of lint that was all over the inside of the dryer.I would suggest to anyone to take the dryer front off once a year and clean it all out . I now understand fully why there are dryer fires.But the fix was cake and it runs like new.

There were several pieces broken around the band and as the drum turned, clothes would catch the cuts and slice right though like a razor blade
Take the top off the dryer. Once it's off, start inserting the bands from the inside. From the top or inside, control and move the drum as needed to insert band in place. Once band is in place, and holes line up, press down till you hear it snap in place. Repeat process with second band.

The plastic knob was wore of and couldn't turn to start dryer.
Unplug dryer from outlet.I removed the screws from the back panel behind the controls. The switch has 2 wires that slip on the switch terminals. I slipped them off, gently lifted the catch located on the switch and rotated switch which is just held in place by two slots. It fell off in my hand when slots were aligned. Copied part number, ordered part, replaced on dryer. Works like a charm. Part arrived in 2 days. Thanks.

Broken Dryer Starter Knob
I pulled off the broken knob and black fitter that was originally on the plastic piece. I didn't even need pliers. Then I replaced the new rotary knob under 5 seconds. Now the dryer works like new.

The knob broke
I unplugged the 110 on the dryer, then popped the top on the dryer (with a screw driver), held the switch in place, bent the brass fittings to clamp the switch assembly to the front of the dryer panel and installed the knob.

brocken knobs
Very simple just put the new ones on to replace the old knobs that broke. Thanks for the quickness of getting our parts to us. So nice to not have to use a tool to turn the dryer on. Very happy with the pricing and quickness it was delivered to us.
