I just tried to turn on my kenmore gas dryer and I just got a buzzing sound. It seems like the motor wants to turn but cant. Any suggestions, and how do I get at the inside of the dryer?

Thanks
Jerry

Your motor bearings are gone. Remove the 2 screws from the top under the lint filter, next pull top forward and up, then remove the 2 screws from inside on the front panel and disconnect the wire harness with a small flat blade screwdriver (ensure that power is off/ unplugged) and remove the front panel, belt and drum.
