In order to access the ignitor assembly on my dryer, do I have to take the entire front panel off? There isn't a kick plate at the bottom.

You will need to bust the dryer open to get to all of the lint, inspect the rollers and belt. Start by yanking out the filter. Remove those 2 phillips screws in the top of the filter housing so you can pop the top. Get the screws out that hold the front panel on. Important: lift UP the front panel to release the lower clips to prevent them from breaking! Get the drum out. Oil the rollers and idler assembly, Vacuum it all out real good. Oil the Idler using non-flammable, high temperature resistance, zoomspout oil. (ace hardware $3).  a good pix of the belt in position. a standard Dryer Manual from Whirpool Corp:

I'll try this. I was ready to take a sledge hammer to it. ( not really)
