The original cover filter was broken so I had to replace it and needed a new spring as well
It started off as supposed to be 5 minute job but took about 4 and a half hours (most of the time was vacuuming and cleaning the lint from inside the dryer as there was a lot of dryer lint built up including on the heater coils which the lint was charred black. So I went to install the cover filter and spring like in the video but my finger are larger so the spring fell off the ear/tab and fell down into the lint trap chute and into the flywheel that turns the drum so I had to remove the top and front of the dryer to retrieve the spring. That’s when I found even more lint but in the process of removing the front of the dryer I noticed one single screw holding the rear lint cover onto the dryer and so I removed that and pulled it out then with that rear cover in my hand I installed the cover filter and spring then reinstalled it. The video shows you to only remove the 3 screws to remove the front cover and then to stick your hands in the tight space and get the small spring and cover filter on and snap them into place. But if after you pull out the front cover then you will see a screw in the middle on the front side of the drum that is the the only thing holding g the rear cover in place just unscrew that and remove that cover and then you can replace the spring and cover filter and then you can put it back in and screw it back into place and then you won’t run the risk of dropping the spring down the chute like I did. If I did this trick it would have only taken me within 2 minutes to change the part...on a side note after finding all the lint I did, I would recommend taking the front and back of the dryer off and getting in there with a vacuum and cleaning it out once every year or two which will save you from a potential fire.

The dryer shut itself off and displayed error code TO
Took off the back of the dryer and replaced the thermistor. A $7 part that would have been a couple hundred dollars if we had to call a repairman.
