The oval like ring or faceplate that encircles the opening of the dryer is loose and dangling on except where it meets the button controls. There are tabs that appear to have come detached from the ring but I dont know how to remove the tabs from the holes they are in and even if I could remove them, I am not sure how to get everything reattached. Snapshots are attached. Thanks for any insights you may have!

Here are your parts

Click on the picture of the clip Item 26 in Section 4.
A new page will open with more views and a Q&A.
The second picture shows how it clips in (click on this picture and expand it).
The tabs on the back grab onto the door when they are pushed in.

Sometimes you can get hem out by placing a thin strip of metal or plastic on the clip sides and pulling it out so the tabs do not grab the door.

Sometimes you can get in with a small screwdriver and bend the tabs down so they cannot grab on the door when pulling them out.

Sometimes you just have to take the door apart.

is that I removed the faceplate and most of those clips. I've decided to glue them in place to avoid this hassle in the future. The bad news...I broke three of them. This is the weirdest way to fasten a face plate to the washer. I will check to see if the clips are sold. Thank you for your help and I apologize for the delay in responding. Have a great Memorial Day!
