Dryer stopped working
From previous experience I suspected the thermal fuse. Turned off the power and removed the front of the dryer by removing the two philips head screws in the door hinge and the two screws on the opposite side of the opening. The front came off easily since all that holds it in place besides the 4 screws are two spring clips. The thermal fuse is located on the side of the chamber enclosing the heating element. I removed the wires connected to the thermal fuse and temporarily joined them together with a spade type connector in order to determine if the thermal fuse was the problem. Turned the power back on and tried the dryer......it ran normally. Turned the power back off and removed the thermal fuse by taking out th two screws with a 1/4" nutdriver.
Ordered a replacement thermal fuse, installed it (with power turned off) and put everything back together. Dryer functioned normally after the thermal fuse had been replaced.
The thermal fuse can be removed and reinstalled using a 1/4" nutdriver. The wires are connected with push on spade type terminals.
Note: The swing damper on the dryer vent (the hooded cover where it exhausts to the outdoors) was jammed in the closed position with an accumulation of lint, which caused the dryer to overheat and blow the thermal fuse. If you experience a blown thermal fuse, always look for the cause or you'll blow the replacement within minutes of running the fryer again.

Dryer would not turn start
I troubleshot the repair using the repair help section from Parts Select. It made finding the problem a snap. I then removed the four wires and two screws that held the heating element in place. Removed two screws that held thermal fuse in place and replaced. By accomplishing the repair myself I saved well over a hundred dollars.

Broken knobs
I removed the existing knobs and popped the new ones into their place! It was aggravating that I could not find a local source to purchase replacement knobs, so I was very glad to discover PartSelect. Instead of a $1000 replacement cooktop, I replaced the knobs for less than a tenth the cost.

One of the knobs on our stove broke apart from years of use.
Dean was very helpful. He looked through the numerous model numbers and found just the correct knob even though the model number was no longer in use. I'll be calling back with another repair problem soon. Thank you very much.

Dryer runs but doesn't heat (broken heater coil)
Removing the old heater assembly was very straightforward - disconnect 4 wires, remove 4 screws and the old unit pulls right out. The new assembly (an exact replacement) took some doing to install, however, because the unit we received was not quite cylindrical. The cross-section profile was more oval than circular, so it was a bit of a challenge to re-shape it enough to get it to finally fit into the inlet duct in the back of the dryer. If it hadn't been for that, the job would've taken 30 minutes or less.
