No heat
Removed the heat coil and checked for continuity with ohm meter. Coil was good. Then checked for continuity across thermal fuse (located on the heater coil unit). Fuse was bad.
Ordered fuse and replaced. Problem solved.

Dryer Would Not Heat
Removed 2 screws on the bottom of front panel of dryer & pulled it off. Next I got down & looked to the back & bottom inside of the dryer. I spyed the heating element,I pulled off the two wires from the thermostats[ orange & black. I removed two screws from the heating element plate & dropped it down & removed it from the dryer. Reverse procedure to reinstall. Will see if we can get another 10 years service out of it.

this in spite of not knowing the model number for a 25 year old machine. it couldn't have beeb easier than that.

Door wouldn't stay closed
I used a screwdriver to pry out the broken door latch and inserted the new one in the same slot. Perfect fit. The picture of the part in the order page was a big help to identify the correct part.

door would not stay closed because metal latch piece was gone.
I ordered the part. ( I should have ordered just in case it happens again.) When it got here it took less than a minute to snap it in.

Door Catch broken
The old door catch broke and fell into the unit. Ordered the new part which arrived fast and snapped it into place. Perfect fit and the door now closes/latches correctly - like new again. Would recommend your web site to all do-it-yourselfers. Loved browsing your site, especially seeing all of the schematics and parts list for my unit.

High limit fuse burned out
This is an easy fix with just 2 small screws holding the unit in place.
NOTE that if the dryer is plugged in, there IS current to the leads and they are hot.
It will make the buzzer sound if you ground the unit to the dryer, or it will make your finger buzz if you cross the wrong terminals with your finger.
Best to unplug the dryer before the replacement.

Drum would slip and at times not spin
You have to take apart the whole dryer to get to the belt.Nut driver with cordless drill make it go so much faster.Unplug dry, take apart dryer and replace with olr belt with new belt.Takes about 20 minutes to do.plus I took off the two guide wheels on back of cabinet and greased everything.Works like brand new.I had a repair guy tell me I needed a new motor.If you can spin the drum by hand replace belt first.

removed the front of dryer panel below the door. Cleaned out all the lint. Pulled two screws with an extended nut driver. slid out the old element. I dentified the part . ordered, when the part came in I put a few simple componets on the new, slid it back in. Turned on the power to make sure it was working then reinstalled the front cover. works fine
