Squel with heavy load
Well before ordering parts. I removed back panel with screw gun to locate issue noise. The I applied a real quilty spray lube to the tensioner an spun it a few times. Then put dryer back together and ordered parts. I'm waiting for the noise to return before I actually make the repair. Old saying if it's not broke don't fix it.

Blower belt came loose, but didn't snap. It was old and perhaps brittle.
First, lift top by pushing in the 2 locking clips ( with the dryer door open), otherwise it won't lift.
Secondly, remove front cover by taking out 2 screws easily seen . If you see any electrical connectors, remove them.
Only thing a bit nightmarish was installing the new belt. It didn't seem long enough even though it was the original exact replacement. I got hair dryer blower, used on belt for 30 seconds, and mission accomplished.

Sqeeking noise fron old worn belt and rollers
Watched instructions, Ordered the kit and repair was fairly easy until the time to line up the cover over the fan wheel. That was difficult part. Would be best to have two people at this point to hold it and align the screw holes. Otherwise its was a fairly easy operation.
