Howard K Albright , WV July 17, 2018 The plastic frame on the inside of the lint collector on my electric drier was breaking off & leaving sharp edges that picked the clothes being dried I ordered a new collector kit and lint filter. I had read, from a previous DIY person how to replace it. I used a screwdriver to pop the drier top up. Removed 2 hex screws that held the front panel on; took out the 2 screws that held the old collector in place. I laid the front panel down on the floor, removed the old collector and installed the new one. I reused the old collector gasket,you might want to order a new one with the new collector in case the old one was non re usable. Mine was re usable.

It took the same steps to replace the broken parts, so the job went smoothly. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers, Socket Set
