The lint catcher is held inplace by 3 screws that are accessed from inside the dryer cavity ( where you put your clothes). remove the three screws, carefully jiggle the cover off and remove the two sensor wires. You can then take the whole thing to your kitchen sink, wash with a toothbrush all the lint away and further remove the sensors and clean the underside of them and thoroughly dry and replace. reverse installation back to your dryer. give it a whirl, no pun intended.

hummm, I think I should have read that you have a different model. I don't think your has the sensors. Clean the lint catcher out well and see if you can't open up the front of your dryer and clean it all out, keep a bowl handy for change cause there should be tons. at the bottom of your lint catcher is another piece that collects dirt and heavy lint, clean that out too,
