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.

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.

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!

Start knob broke
Pulled the old knob off to get part number. Ordered replacement part. When it arrived, I pushed the new knob on the shaft. It ain't rocket science! Thanks for you quick, efficient service.

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.

Turn type start switch, knob set screw came loose, further use destroyed switch stalk and twisted it out of fixture.
Check that power cord is still disconnected from initial inspection. Remove chassis cover plate. Count and set the screws aside. Check type and fit of replacement. Twist-lock new switch into place. Swap wires onto proper terminals of new switch. Replace cover plate. Replace and tighten switch knob. Re-connect power plug. Activate new switch. Three tests successful. Return dryer to ready position. Test again- OK. Repair complete.

Symptoms suggested drum support bearing was problem.
Referred to Video and replaced drum support bearing as shown. Did not solve the problem as noise was still present. Called professional repairman, who replaced the belt pulley, along with all the parts I had just installed (came as part of a total kit). I was on the correct path, but just didn't go far enough to check out the belt pulley. If it should happen again, I could complete the whole repair process. Great learning process!!
