The dryer does not fully dry on preselected cycles or extended time selections, and some lint collects on the inside of the drum with little on the filter. Troubleshooting so far: cleaned vent ductwork, cleaned, and inspected lint filter, removed front panel, thoroughly vacuumed interior with dryer attachment, replaced moisture sensors. The dryer seems to heat and get hot, though not overheating. I suspect the problem could be that the thermistor is the problem. I'm a broken down old combat Vet who relies on VA disability, so hiring someone to come out and fix it isn't on the menu.... :-( Any pointers are greatly appreciated!!!!

Hi John, thank you for the question. Based on our understanding, we would recommend checking the dryer thermistor, part number PS11746740. It attaches on the blower housing, and monitors and helps regulate the temperature inside the dryer. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

My dryer starts without turning it on and has added time to its cycle and has ran with the door open. Could it be the control panel? Thank you!

Dryer door catch broken
After a few years of slamming the dryer door (at least that is what my husband says), the catch on the dryer door broke. Using pliers (I used needle nose) squeeze the outer edges of the catch together (vertically). With it compressed, it should slide out easily. My husband had jacked with ours prior to the repair, so the broken piece in the door was actually sideways and would not fit through the hole. Using a screwdriver, I pushed that piece into the door (it lives in the door somewhere now). I was then able to slide out the rest of the old catch. Compress the new catch and insert it into the hole in the door. Push it in until it clicks into place. DONE! Happy Drying!

very loud squeeling sound
The issue was the idler pulley. First I began opening up the front panel based on a youtube video but soon realized the model was slightly different and required a lot more items to remove. I saw the pulley in the back with nothing in the way so I put the front panel crap back on and removed the rear panel. There it was, very simple to remove and replace. I'm not looking forward to drum rollers though. Hopefully they're aren't as difficult as they appear.
