The Lint filter in the dryer was damaged from continuous use.
I just popped in the new Filter and it fit perfectly. This will prolong the dryer use, looks like new.

WAITING ON PART
Still waiting for your parts. over two weeks to get part which was a hinge for something, I don't know what, but not my dryer seal. You said you would refund shipping and wrong part and charge me for a new order. End result was I got charged extra shipping for your mistake. The part still is MIA and it has been 5 weeks since I originally ordered. Will never do business with you again.

Timer knob would not turn, caused the knob to break.
Remove two screws on the back of dryer that hold the Control panel on. The panel is hooked on to the dryer so carefully remove that. The timer knob has several wires hook into it so take a picture for reference. Remove the screws, remove and install new timer. Now transfer the wires over to the new timer one at a time to avoid confusion. Reinstall the the control panel.
