GLGQ642AS0 Frigidaire Dryer - Instructions

I definitely would not have tried to do this had it not been for the other testimonials written here. But it sounded so easy, I had to just try it (the repair man estimated that with parts and labor, we would be looking at somewhere between $250 and $300!).

The repair itself took less than 15 min, but I spend a good deal of time looking around the garage for a few screwdrivers and my socket set (me and tools don't meet too often). I could simply pry up the top cover on the dryer with my hands, then got it all the way up after removing two screws from the lint trap and undoing this really annoying wire connector thing. From there the front panel lifted off. To remove the drum, just had to release the tensonier on the belt, and it came right out. From this point it was really obvious where the replacement parts would be going. A few screws later, and I could swap the parts, and put humpty dumpty back together again.

It works!!!

Unplug from electric outlet. Use putty knife to press on two brackets holding the top cover. Raise top cover. Unscrew two screws holding the front panel. Raise front panel up and move to the right (careful with the wires). Disconnect wires from coils. Unscrew two screws holding a small bracket holding the coils. Replace coils and reassemble everything. (HINT: make sure you drum is empty. Mine contained dump clothes, and it turned out front panel actually provides support to the drum, so mine was hanging there with some weight in it - probably not good).

because the parts were not to bad in price i canged the egnighter the coils and the thermostate, I changed the sensor and that was not the problem so after i purchest the parts mentioned above it fixed the problem
i first removed the 2 phillips screws holding the egnighter and removed the old egnighter two phillips screws and installed the new one and i removed the two philips screws holding the plate on the coils and removed the wires and installed the new coils, to the right the thermostate in the fan assembley removed tthe two phillps screws removed the wires and installed the new one reassemble the dryer and good to go I couldent beleve how fast the parts came in like the next day Thank you Parts select

Took top off dryer which made easy access to switch and change part ,put it back together thanks

Replaced rear drum bearing, drum support bearing & drum belt. Still very noisy. Will order new motor & see if that does the trick.

The appliance is gas, which made me a little nervous. However, knowing that I had the gas off, I carefully began disassembly. The burner unit is a very simple set up and within a few minutes I had the entire assembly out and noticed that in fact the igniter was broken. I ordered a new one from partselect.com and it was delivered in 2 days! The worst part of the assembly was when I accidentally bumped the new igniter against the underside of the dryer and broke the brand new one!!!..So, I ordered a second igniter and 2 days later installed it in about 30 minutes.

Romoved front from dryer . Then loosened tub , slid belt on , reached in back and put belt on pulley , turned tub till belt went into place and reassembled dryer all with the help of a 3 year old and an8 year old,so in my oppinion it was one of the easiest fixes i've ever done!

Just pressed the knob on.

It was very easy, looked and found the right match and pulled off the broken one and pushed on the new one

Just put on the new knob! Supper easy and it works great!

Took it out of the bag and put it on.

Simply popped it back into place, careful not to break the new handle.

All I had to do was line the "D" shaft up with the "D" metal shaft on the Dryer and push the knob on. I made sure it would turn properly, and turned the Dryer on the make sure it worked. All is good.

Just replaced the new lint filter with the old lint filter. The part fit perfectly. I did not have a problem.

Just snap into place
