I know the blower wheel needs to be secured or replaced, but I cant get the front panel off. I've read all the online suggestions and instructions, but the front panel of my model does not have the two screws about 6" from the bottom, nor the clips under the top panel. I can see screws in the joint that must be secured from inside the front panel? How else can I remove the front panel?

If you look between the top and the front panel you will see 2 clips, 1 on each end that you must press in one at a time while lifting up on the top. Once the top is raised there is one screw on apwach side securing the fron to the sides.

Nevermind, I got it. The blower wheel and filter feed to the blower were clogged with lint.

yes, I found them. now that the door is off the blower is full of lint which is probably the problem. I'll clean it out and see if the noise is gone. Thank you for the help

Check the blower wheel for rotational play on the motor shaft..if you more than about 1/8 " of play the blower isn't going to last much longer.
