Dryer not heating up consistently
My dryer was heating up very briefly blowing hot air initially then cool. I have a stacking washer/dryer set (2002). I initially turned off the gas valve at the wall, ran the dry for several minutes to clear the gas line, then unplugged the power. I was then able to pop the top using a flathead screw driver, securely prop it open, unhook the wiring harness to the front panel, unscrew the two front panel screws, and remove the entire front without having to unstack the units. From there, you remove the two screws holding the bracket over the coils (2 of them), remove the electrical connectors attached to both coils and replaced them with the new ones. I then replaced all brackets, screws, and such (you'll need to lift the drum when putting the front back on and make sure it is lined up), plugged it back into power and turned on the gas to test the unit which worked perfectly. The 62% of the time seems to be an accurate figure as nothing else had to be done to the unit. Pretty easy stuff...good luck.

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.

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.
