3 prong to 4 prong ground wire

Brand: Kenmore Age: 5 - 10 years

Appliance Parts from AppliancePartPros.com

I am trying to put a 4 prong cable on my dryer. I have wired the basic wire but not sure what to do with the ground wire that was there. I have attached an image on what I have now.

Put the ground wire on the screw with the green ground wire that comes from the dryer.

That will do it.
