dryer not working/removing panels?

kbrug3 · #1 Jul 5, 2008, 03:36 PM

I have a 2yr old Frigidaire model FERB7800DSO.
I was in the middle of a load of laundry the other and it stopped running. Someone mentioned to remove the front and top panels to check my belts. There are absolutely no screws or kick plate on the front of my dryer. any ideas?
thanks

ps.. I just found a small vent in the back and opened that, from there I can see the drum belt as suggested on another post. It is in place and very tight making me believe that it's not the belt.
Any other ideas and please tell me (if you know) how to get to them??

Is there power to it? Does the motor run? Does the drum rotate easily by hand? Don't rotate it very far in reverse, you can derail the belt on some models! Does the timer run? Is the door closed correctly? Need more information but it sounds like you will need a repairman if you aren't familiar enough with appliance repair to take it apart. No offense intended.
