手順7

Once the three screws are removed, pop the back of the dryer off by wiggling it until it comes loose. This shouldn't take too much effort.

手順8

At this point, unwind the cord and lay it to the side so you can get to the screw in the middle easier.
Remove the single 12 mm long Phillips #2 screw in the middle of the cord track.

手順9

Take off the white cap that covers the heating coil. You will see a wound up piece of metal (cord retracting coil) underneath once the cap is removed.

手順10

When removing the coil, make sure it stays wound up. It could very easily pop out, and you would have to wind it all the way back up and try to squeeze it back into the slot when you reassemble the dryer.
To remove the coil, use your screw driver to pop the coil out of the slot.
