timer knob on dryer had striped
At first i tried to repair the old knob before ordering one with tape and glue.kind of a mans thing you know and needless to say that didn't work so for a little while the man thing was we would adjust a crescent wrench to fit the shape of the shaft to set our time on the dryer. i looked all over our home depot stores and lowes here in town and no one carried the part. my wife Angela decided to look on line and see if anyone carried a part like this. thanks to you guys we were able to order the part and it came in and while i was at work my wife called me and said the dryer is fixed. she just fit the new knob on the shaft and it works like new. thank you part select you made my wife happy.

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.

Timer knob on our dryer broke off because of flimsy plastic
We ordered a timer knob from partselect.com and within 24 hours received our new, better, stronger time knob in the mail. We were very impressed with the customer service of this company and will definitely recommend to friends.

dryer never converted from natural to propane gas
followed instructions that came with kit. The problem was the instructions were not very clear with regard to the "type" of burner. the "A" type with the slot is explained but the "B" without the slot wasen't clearly explained. Even that wasen't too bad (I had to re-do that part), But you need to be 20 years old to see the damned print. I had to use my reading glasses AND a magnifying glass to read them. Also with the "B" type burner, which I have, you simply install the limiter part and you don't need (can't) adjust it.

Dryer squeaking/squealing sound
After some research on the internet, I deduced the squeaking sound in our dryer was due to defective drum glides. I ordered a set of four of the white type, knowing only our model requires four glides, but not knowing there are two types for two locations. After disassembling the dryer I realized I needed more parts - two green slides and a new top bearing assembly. The dryer drum had eaten thru glides and into the plastic assembly. That was the reason for the squeaking noise - metal sliding against hard plastic. I ordered the additional parts directly from the manufacturer to ensure I got it right. After all the parts arrived, the repair was easy and took less than 30 minutes. I actually had my 17 year-old daughter do the work to teach her some skills. I just instructed her and stepped in on assembling the top that was just a bit tricky to put back on. Problem fixed.
