Remove the rear access panel and remove the belt from the motor and idler pulleys. Open the door and remove the screws holding the top panel. Lift up the top panel and remove the screw on each side holding the front panel. Remove the wires from the door switch and remove the front panel. Remove the drum.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for GE NWSR483EB0WW | AppliancePartsPros.com

Hi Gene, thanks for your help! I'll get started on it tomorrow. I couldn't recall everything, but it just seemed to me that the repairman that fixed it before just removed a couple of screws and tipped the whole cabinet forward. It seemed so simple. I don't know how I got that idea. Anyway, I appreciate the help, and will get to it. Thanks!! Ron
