Step 2 · Access Dryer Drum and Components

The method for accessing the dryer's internal components varies by model. Typically, this involves removing the top panel, the front panel, or both. For most models, you'll need to unscrew and lift off the top panel first, which often provides access to screws holding the front panel. The front panel may then be carefully pulled away, or it might require disconnecting a moisture sensor wire. Consult your dryer's service manual for specific instructions for your model.
