Dryer not heating, I replaced the ignitor and flame sensor to no avail, I did get the gas valve coils, but I was not able to replace them, could not take them apart, need advice on that, and any additional advice on what to do next. Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.

Hi Ruben, thank you for reaching out. Since you have replaced some of the most common parts and the issue persists, you may need to replace the gas valve coil, part number PS11752967, as it is most likely faulty. First, unplug the unit and disconnect the gas supply. Remove the front panel by unthreading the screws holding it in place, to access the gas valve. Once you have access to the gas valve, disconnect the wires. Now to remove the gas valve coil, remove the screw holding it in place, pry it out with the help of the screwdriver, and then install the new part. We hope this information helps!

When we load dryer, set the settings and dryer activates it has become very noisy. Seems that it rattles and has gotten worse. Can you explain what the problem is? Thank you

Hi Douglas, thank you for reaching out. We would suggest checking the blower fan first. If it is fine, the issue could be with the motor pulley, part number PS11744884. It rotates to turn the drive belt. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

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.

Rear tub seal failure
I removed the top cover and then the back cover, released the belt tensioner and removed the drive belt. Then slid the tub out of the unit and onto the back dack. Sanded the remnents of the old seal off. Wiped the tub lip with laquer thinner and applied the "fast" drying glue supplied with the kit. Installed the seal and re-assembled the unit...works fine
