High Squeaking noise
I removed the top of the dryer and saw that the top two drum slides where gone and the drum bearing itself was damaged I Temporally placed the parts on the drum bearing until I got the new one, that stopped the squeaking noise. All I needed to do was place the part with the hole on the little hook and then sled the other part in its slot.

rotary start switch would not work
I removed the screws to the panel holding the start switch. The panel then opens to view the start switch. Using my hand I disconnected the start switch which were three quick disconnects. The switch was easily removed. I then put new switch in and plugged wires to it,closed cover and screwed it on. Anyone could do this.

dryer would not turn on
I opened the control panel from the back. I held the new switch next to the old switch and changed one wire at a time so that I would be sure they were connected in the same manner. It was simple. I have American Home Shield and I usually call them for repairs. Sometimes they are slow and after 3 days the contractor that they usually call didn't have a work order from them. I was tired of waiting so I ordered the part myself. I got overnight shipping and repaired it myself for about half what the American Home Shield minimum charge would have been. The day I got the dryer working again, the contractor called to scheduyle a time to come to my house. I told him the repair was done and I didn't need him. It made me feel good to take care of it myself and save money too.

Dryer would not start
Unplugged the dryer. Removed the top hood with a phillips screwdriver. Twisted out the old starter. Unplugged the connectors on the starter (they were not in the same location as the new starter but were numbered so I kept the numbers consistent. Put the new starter in and plugged in the connectors. Plugged in the machine - hit the "on" button and viola! Easy cheesy lemon squeezy.
