evidently the pulley spring on video was very very very weak
the pulley spring took so much pressure to hold it down it took 3 men and a boy to hold it and place it in position to to get the belt on. Also there is not enough room to get your arms and hands in without getting some small cuts.Ultimately I removed the screws in the back of the dryer and spread the side of the dryer out to gain proper access. It was an easy repair if the spring would not have been so strong.

Broken piece
Snap out the broken part. Snap in the new part. Use caution with the wires, but don’t have to disconnect them.

Purchased a used dryer & lint filter had holes due to rust
On my GE Dryer the lint filter is located inside the door at the bottom. The filter can just be pulled out by hand & a new one pushed into place

Bulb was intermittently working
Inspected door switch operation and was working properly and simply looked for bulb in the dryer drum housing and located it immediately above the door opening,unscrewed it and noticed the broken elements inside. The bulb is a 10w/120V. Installed bulb problem solved.

Control knob spinning, could not get dryer to run.
My husband and I are the least repair-oriented people in the world. We can, however, follow instructions.
We were seriously trying to decide whether to call a repairperson or buy a new dryer, since dryer is over 5 years old, and it does not seem that appliances last any more. (New dryer: probably over $700)
Read about issue on PartSelect. Found clear and easy to follow explanations. Thought we needed a new timer, and considered buying one. Installation instructions seemed clear and simple enough for even us to do. Pulled off old timer knob to discover the back was cracked, which was why it was spinning.
Bought control knob. Pushed it on. Perfect!
Total time for repair: about 10 seconds
Total cost (including shipping) about $33

My last phase of repairs of minor items.
if your unit has over 6,000 hours of operations, one needs to remove the front panel and inspect the sliders that the drum rides on. The video were very helpful to replace the sliders. Unfortunately, my dryer had over 10,000 hours of operations over a 30 years period, hence a major repair costing over $200.00 dollars. The drum sliders were gone, hence the drum eat through the plastic guides. More so, the drum started to eat away the front panel. If the dryer is eating your closes and making a noise, one is looking at a $200.00 repair job. Hence check the sliders early will save one $$$$.

Rubbing noise while dryer was running.
After watching the video, the repair was very simple. There were no hiccups along the way. Special mention: the customer service is the best I've ever interacted with. Thank for making this a stress free experience.
