Loud Noise ,Clothes Getting Stuck
Removed dryer top. Unscrewed the screw from each side inside the dryer the ones below the control panels. Don't unscrew those you will just have to put them back. Insert a flathead screw driver on the left side to loosen the front panel and slide it gently to the right. You can replace the drum glide without disconnecting any of the wires. Remove old drum glide and clean. Install new one and while the glue dries clean inside the dryer. Mine was very dirty!!!! Put everthing back and your ready to go. Don't forget to hook back the dryer vent. Thank you partselect my dryer is almost like new and is drying so much faster, no more noise and you have saved me lots of money.

Broken dryer belt
This is a space saver one piece unit with dryer on top. I first removed ten screws that hold the top on, I then removed four more screws that hold the front service cover on and two last screws that hold the rear service cover on. Now I seperated the front cover of the dryer from the dryer tumbler tub and slipped the new belt around the tub, then at the rear service cover I feed the belt through the tensioner and back onto the motor pully. Now just put the covers back in reverse order of removal and all done! "Piece of cake"

I was getting brown rust colored marks on my clothes
First of all to all you females out there, I am one and this is easy. It was a stacked washer/dryer and the dryer is gas. I unplugged the power, didn't unhook the gas and left them stacked, not a problem. Next I pushed in the 2 clips at the top with a small screwdriver while at the same time prying up on the top with my chisel, popped the top up and unplugged the wire bundle that's attached to the front panel. A few inches down on the inside of the front panel are 2 screws, I removed those. Then I pried the front panel off - there are 4 clips 2 on each side holding the front panel on. I pulled off the felt strips leaving a bunch of "hair". I read the other repair stories saying they'd wished that they'd used stronger solvent to remove the old glue and "hair" so I used laquer thinner and it worked great. Just saturate your rag and get the old felt and glue really wet and then come back with the chisel and the felt and most of the glue comes off and not the paint. I just kept going back over it with the saturated rag and chisel and it was pretty easy. I then put the glue on the felt strips, attached them, and used a ring of bungee cords to make a clamp around them 'til they dried. Put dryer back together and it works great. Also when you've got it apart - it's a good time to vacuum out the inside of the dryer.

Drum wouldn't turn, snapped drive belt
Removing the top and then the front of the dryer went fairly easily after finding the screws. The drum came out with just a little coaxing, does not gets screwed in place. To me the trickiest maneuver was getting my hand under the drum to place the belt over motor pulley and around the tensioner pulley. You must look up an image of the belt routing. It took me forever to figure that out. If not for that, this in a half hr fix. Ps don't forget to unplug the dryer.

Out of country repair needed
This appliance is being used in a third world country with no parts access. I discovered Partselect and easily found the schematic with parts listed. Needed parts were easily identified ordered online and received within 4 days in the US and in time to take on my day later flight outbound. The process was seamless and expeditious. Thank you Partselect!
