What brand/model is your dryer? What quit on it? Heat? motor? Blower? Drum belt? You might be able to fix it pretty cheep. (I fix appliances for a living.) Sorry about the other problems, I cant offer help with those.
Thanks for the advicebut its done for. Already had it apart onve awhile back tofix some things. Needs a deum belt, the rear bearing squeks like crazy and now it ove heats to the point it will caych on fire ( all lint is cleared out) just overheats and wants to caych on fire. So its time for it to go to the scrap yard.
Hang in there buddy, we all have our days/weeks/months at the bottom of the barrel. Just had my turn not to long ago, and while I am far from being on top of things at least I am not at the bottom of the barrel......
