Unplug dryer
Remove two screws at bottom edge of front panel, under the lip facing up so they are hard to see.
- May be TORX secure screws(star shap with a pin in the middle), TORX secure bits ~$6 at good tool shops, or cut a slot across the head of the screw and use a flat blade, throw the torx away and replace with phillips head screws, easier for next time
.
tilt front panel up from the bottom and unhook it from the catches
undo door switch cables
place door aside

check felts and roller bearings before you put the case back on, often a seized bearing is cause of belts breaking
While you have the case off pull all the lint n **** out of vent and motor area
