Removal of front cabinet panel of washer section

I have a Kenmore Washer/dryer stack, model 11099575120, and I want to remove the bottom front panel. It has a rust area that I'd like to grind down and re-paint. I don't know how to remove the panel. Any tips?

Thanks,
Artie

Should be two screws on each side of the bottom of the front panel. Takes those out and push the panel up and out. (There are two "tabs?" in the middle of the front panel that lock into the side panels, so you have to push up and then pull out.)

Remove front panel on kenmore washer dryer stack model110.26182

Model# 110.88752799 Kenmore stacker washer/dryer

Q; How do I remove the front control panel? (to remove the timer dial, to replace a switch, etc)

A: reference diagram- http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/partsdirect/printSubComp.pd?imageUrl=http%3a%2f%2fc.searspartsdirect.com%2flis_png%2fPLDM%2fK1105180-00001.png

-remove four crews (#8 on diagram) from left and right sides.
-remove one screw (at #21 on diagram) from the bottom of the panel.
-remove #7 panel from the left and right side
- this will expose a thin metal catch (#9) on each side. With a small finger or screw driver, push down on the top of this metal strip where it bends horizontally. This will compress the spring (#14) and release the catch.
- the control panel will fold down now.

How do I find the lower access panel on my 970-c98702-00

On this particular model you drop the splash plate like thisthemobilian_701.jpg
once you have that out of the way you would then remove the cabinet by pop some sclips like on a direct drive washerthemobilian_702.jpg
Then the case comes of like this:
themobilian_703.jpg
Your model number ain't a good one so I just had these photos in my PC and I have worked on one like that before. If the panel dont come off the front like this:
themobilian_704.jpgthen it is like the photo above. See kenmore makes a stack frigidaire washer dryer like this here but they also make a direct drive thin twin.
Here is a service Manual
I believe it is you it covers 4 models and is 136 pages

How to remove the front panel of a maytag neptune gas dryer

Removal of the front panel requires the removal of the top cover and the console. Disconnect power to the dryer prior to servicing to avoid the risk of electric shock.

Remove the 2 screws attaching the top cover to the rear of the dryer then slide it rearward to clear the screw head from the top cover flange and lift the cover off the dryer cabinet.

Remove the screws securing the heater PCB board and disconnect the black and white wiring harness connectors from the board.

Remove the four screws attaching the console to the washer cabinet and rotate the console down to remove it from the dryer.

Remove the four screws attaching the top of the front panel to the cabinet and the two screws at the bottom of the door opening.

Pull the front panel forward and disconnect the interior light wiring harness then lift the front panel off the tabs across the bottom and move it away from the dryer.

Reinstall the front panel, the console, and the top cover in reverse of the removal steps.

DRYER PROBLEM

When the pads on the front wear, it will make noise when running. They can be replaced. There is one on the top and one on the bottom rim where the drum turns. You remove the front to access them by removing the screws on the top. Post your model number for diagrams. It's usually stamped on a small tag in a visible location on your appliance.

Washer-Dryer- behind or on top of the control panel. Behind the door. On the lower front or side of the cabinet.

Kenmore Washer/Dryer Stack -- Need to replace Washer

first of all. comming from a Sears Technician.. (don't yell) -- the delivery drivers only know about delivering stuff. they dont know too much,
if the two are the same size they can be stacked.
sometimes have to rig something up
and yes, for that model the top is removed, clips go on the rear and screwed at the front.
in some areas it is sold seperatly as a stacking kit
