How to Remove the Front of a Hotpoint Dryer
- 1). Unplug the Hotpoint dryer from the wall and open up the dryer door to access the screws holding the dryer top to the cabinet. Remove the screws along the top edge of the door recess. Lift the hinged dryer top and rest it against the wall behind the dryer for support.
- 2). Remove the screws from the top right and left front corners that hold the front of the Hotpoint dryer to the dryer cabinet. You must remove these screws by reaching inside the cabinet.
- 3). Lift the Hotpoint front up and off the dryer cabinet. The wiring that connects to the door switch travels along the left or right side of the cabinet and to the back of the dryer. Make sure you move the door to the same side of the dryer cabinet as the wiring.
