I have a Kenmore 90 Plus series clothes dryer. I need to vacuum out the dust residue that collects underneath the dryer, but I can't get the bottom kickplate off the dryer. The last time, my wife had to call a repairman and he charged $50 for about a 2 minute job. It has been a while, so she forgot what he did, except to say that it was somehting really simple. Please help with the magic cormula for removing the kickplate. Thanks.

Sure... if you provide the *model number* of the dryer ("Kenmore 90 Plus series" isn't it) so we can see how it was designed. They're not 'all the same'.

You can find tips for locating the model and serial number tag on your appliances in the 'Repair Parts' section of my site linked below.

Any advice on how to get the kick plate off the front?

Marketing names written in plain view on the front of an appliance (eg. "Kenmore 90 Plus", "90 Series", "Deluxe", "Heavy Duty") are not usually sufficient to identify a particular product. The key to the appliance you have is its *model number* as written on the appliance's model and serial number tag.

If you post the model number as found on that tag, someone should be able to tell you how to access that area.

Thank you so much for the help in removing the front kick plate on my Kenmore dryer.

How do you remove the kick plate on a Kenmore dryer model 110.96589210? The picture at http://groups.msn.com/Appliantology/dryers.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=703 looks like my dryer, but I just can't figure out how to pop it open.

Thank you!
