Dryer squeaks and squeals while running
Took the top of the dryer off by removing two philips screws in front. Removed two screws holding the front of the dryer on. Pulled the front out enough to reveal the worn drum slides. Replaced them. Reassembled.

loud screaching noise
We removed the top of the the dryer and then removed the front part. Then put the traps in place, put the other parts of the dryer back on, and turned the dryer back on. Just as simple as that. No extra fees.

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 drum squealling
I followed the directions from the previous post. It was much easier than described. I got the part, removed 4 screws, removed the top, pulled the front and replaced the part. It was all together again in 15 minutes. Dryer sounds great again! I'm so glad I didn't call a repair man!

Dryer's timer knob broke on the inside
When I got the knob in the mail, I opened up the package, made sure the knob was identical to the broken one and pressed the new knob into place. I needed no tools to put the new knob on. It was easier than I thought.

Since I have replaced the knob twice, I decided to purchase more knobs.
The website is so user friendly, I ordered additional parts I did not need at the moment.

Dryer would not start
I called the repair man for an evaluation. Upon examing the dryer, he termined that the dryer was broken from the inside. So, he advised me to order another timer knob.
That's it.
That's it.

Squeeky Noise When Dryer Was Running
First I removed the 2 screws that hold the lid down. Then I pulled the lid off. Then I removed the 2 screws that hold the front of the dryer in place. Then I lifted the drum a little and pulled the front cabinet out a little so I could see the drum slides. I removed the bad drum slides and installed the new ones. I then put everything back together and turned on the dryer. The squeeky noise was gone.
