Loud squeaking sound from dryer drum.
Initially purchased just the plastic slides, but when I opened the dryer I found the top drum bearing was smashed and the plastic was basically gone in a whole section, so I then ended up ordering the bearing as well. If you hear the loud squeaking, just buy the top drum bearing and the 4 slides (two white and two dark green). It is an easy repair and the squeaking sound is gone.

Dryer wouldn't heat
Had a repairman tell me I needed a new controller for about $350 so I decided to do it myself...found the schematic and tested the termisters. One of them was much lower than the range so I ordered a part of the web (here)...The diagram shows the thermistor and the safety switch so I ordered the wrong part (out $40). Ordered the other part which turned out to be the thermister. Took two weeks to get through this..Sure enough it worked!

Drum squeaked and occassionally would not turn, even though the motor ran.
I ordered and replaced the front and rear bearings, including the slides that go on the front bearing. Most of this was un-necessary; replacing the slides would have been sufficient, and much easier to do. Two of the old slides were worn completely away.

Broken handle on dryer
The part was shipped quickly and I received it within the week. I was afraid that because it is an older dryer the new handle would not be compatible, but it was! It installed easily, it only took a few seconds to clip it in and now it's as good as new!

I broke the handle on the dryer door.
All that was needed when I got the new handle from Fed-ex, was simply to line-up the clips with the holes in the door and push in till everything snapped in place. It was very easy. It took longer to open the package than to attach the handle.
