Locate crack between main front panel and lower panel. Use putty knife to depress clips located on either side of crack 3-4 inches in from either side. Bottom panel will then pull out from top and then must be lifted up off bottom clips.

SOURCE: how do you open the front of the dryer?

Unplug your dryer from the electrical first.
You would remove the electrical box from the top of the machine that holds the timer switch/start switch,etc. Be really careful that no wires come loose in the process.
Then remove the top of the machine, then the front will come off after you remove the screws holding it together.
Good Luck,
I hope this helps

SOURCE: how to remove the front

Hello,

In the seam between the lower and upper front panel place a putty knife in the corners about a inch from the ends and push in and release the clips that hold that lower panel to the upper panel.

SOURCE: How to remove top and front panel on Maytag Dryer model MDE9206AYW

To access these parts you first need to first lift the top up. This is done by pressing the clips inward. These are located on the left and right side in between the top and front on the dryer. When this is done the top will left up and backwards. Next, on the upper inside there are two screws, usually 5/16" bolts, that will need to removed to take the front off. Now you'll will access to the inside of the dryer. The belt will have to be removed to to take the drum out to test the rollers.

How do i open up the front of the dryer to repair igniter

On this model, the burner assembly is located in the back left corner. You can access it by removing the back pannel. To remove the front pannel you can lift the front of the top pannel and remove the two screws that hold the front to the sides. Keep in mind the top is held by plastic locks and clips, so be gentle but forceful. Also, the from holds the spring assembly for the door.

Dryer will not heat and timer switch isnt wrkn.

IN THE AUTO DRY CYCLE IT WONT ADVANCE IF ITS NOT DRYING,MOST OF THE TIME ITS A BAD THERMOFUSE, YOU NEED TO REMOVE THE FRONT PANNEL ,AFTER REMOVING THE POWER,THE SCREWS ARE THE ONES HOLDING THE HINGES TO THE FRONT AND THE ONES HOLDING THE PLASTIC COVERS OPPESIT THE HINGES ,THEN THE WHOLE FRONT PULLS DOWN. YOU SHOULD SEE A WHITE PLASTIC SENSOR WITH TWO WIRES USE A OHM METER TO SEE IF IT IS OPEN IF SO REPLACE IT AND CLEAN YOUR VENTING.

How do I gain access to the motor on my Neptune dryer

Open the dryer door.
Remove four screws - two are holding the door and two are holding plastic pieces opposite the door.
With the screws released, the front pannel of the unit will tilt forward and can be removed.
With the front pannel out of the way, two metal retainers found at the top front of the dryer can be released which allows for the top of the unit to be lifted up and removed if desired.
From this point, four more screws found on the front face were removed which allowed the front ducting and front part of the drum to be removed.
The drum was pulled out (work the belt to the rear of the drum while extracting it - optionally, you can release the belt tension by reaching in and removing the belt from the idler)
The motor is accessable.

Professionals may want to pull all the screws from the side pannel and remove it for easier access.

Open the front door where you load the machine.
Look towards the top where the door normaly closes, there ususualy two screws that you can unscrew there.
Once loose the top pannel should come off, which allowes you to remove the front panel with 2 screws as well.

Good luck!
