broken door clip
After watching the great install video, I followed his lead and within 20 min had my dryer door fixed. This dryer was bought in 1986 and I really thought I was looking at buying a new dryer. How wonderful that I could fix it for less than $11. Easy to find web site, easy to find part, great instructions and fast delivery!

Had to align tabs on the seal, which are differently spaced, with the holes in the dryer door.
Pulled the old seal off then pushed the new one in place.

center of blower wheel had become oval causing blowerr wheel to rub and create a screeching sound
Absolute First thing to do - Unplug drier from power source.
1st I looked up the parts drawing on line. 2nd Took the front of the drier off . It was held on by two
hex head screws. iIused a four-in-one screwdriver as a nut driver. 3rd. Lifted the front off the two post that held the front on, being careful not to strecth the wiring. 4th Took old wheel off, by removing snap ring with a pair of pliers,it came right of, no puller was needed because the hub was out of round. 5th Pushed the new wheel on, being sure to line up the "D" shape to match the motor shaft.
I could not push the wheel all the way on so I took a short piece of 1/2 copper tubing and used that to drive the wheel into place. The tubing fit over the motor shaft and was smaller than the hub. Be careful to tap the plastic wheel on, you do not want to crack the wheel. 6th Put snap ring on -with pliers. Reassembled front. Finished.

3 wires came loose from switch was twisted to connect.
It should have been easy but when some wires (3) came loose when I moved it to install it, I had a problem. The video that was run at a higher speed and too close up images you could not see which wire went where. Contacted Part Select and received no answer, so I tracked the wires down as much as I could on an old wiring diagram and hooked them up. I then connected the power, stood back and watched the switch smoke and blow circuits. No why to find the correct color wire to what part so I ended up having to buy a new dryer. Part Select has only sale people so don't expect help if something goes wrong. Good Luck

Blower wheel worn
The website lists 2 wheels for this model, no info on the flat spot in the shaft. I ordered the less expensive wheel but it did not fit the shaft, got a refund, ordered the more expensive one, it fit with just a little tapping with a light hammer.

Sounded like rocks tubling in dryer and kept getting louder
Lifted the top, then removed two screws holding on front panel, then removed cover holding this part in place, then used retaing ring plyers to remove the ring, then plyers to remove wheel clamp, took off the blower wheel. After that did everything in reverse to put it back together. And now the dryer is quite.

Dryer made weird harmonic noise
0) unplugged the dryer
1) lifted the top which put up a bit of a fight
2) removed a screw on each side of the front panel near the top
3) picked off the front panel from the lower clips
4) removed panel from in front of the blower
5) removed clip and snap rig
6) removed old blower and installed new one
7) reversed the disassembly procedure
This is the second replacement blower for this dryer. This blower was a much tighter fit than the first replacement so maybe the inner flat that the motor drives with will last longer. I actually had to pound the new blower onto the motor shaft.

Lint screen was broken
This Was pretty simple, removed the old broken screen. There are two torque screws on the outside where the bottom of the door is, I removed them so I could move the screen on the inside so I could clean out the excess lint. vacuumed out the lint, tightened the screws back in and slid the new screen in and it was done.
