Cathy for Model Number WED7500VW0

SEARS IS SO BOOKED FOR REPAIR. THEY CONTRACT OUT THEIR WARRANTY WORK. I HAD A MAN COME OUT AND PUT ON A DRYER HANDLE THAT BROKE OFF. PART NO. WP8182574. IN STEAD OF LOOKING AT THE PART ON THE DOOR BEFORE TAKING IT OFF. HE PULLED THE BROKEN HANDLE OFF THE DRYER. THE NEW PART COMES IN PIECES. COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT IT TOGETHER. PLAYED WITH IT FOR AN HOUR JIMMY RIGGED IT THE WAY HE THOUGHT IT SHOULD BE. THE HANDLE IS ON VERY LOOSE, AND NOW MY DRYER GETS STUCK WHEN I OPEN IT. I ORDERED ANOTHER PART. THEY WILL SEND SOMONE IN 2 WEEKS. DO YOU KNOW HOW THIS GOES TOGETHER. IT DOES NOT SHOW IN THE DIARGRAM. CATHY

Remove the panel of the door and look to see how the old assembly is in place inside the door and follow the way it is together. Since he did that the way he did, the next tech will have to figure out how the handle disengages the latch.
