I have a Maytag gas dryer and the motor needs to be replaced. Does anybody know how to get to the motor? The back does not come off. I took off the front panel and took apart the wheel blower but the housing itself does not seem to be removable unless there is a hidden screw that I missed. I am hoping that I don’t have to remove the entire cabinet. The dryer I bought used and I have had it for 5 years. It could be over 10 years old. The model no. is PYG2300

This parts breakdown should help.
