DLG1320W Gas Dryer - Loud Odd Noise - Repair Manual?

[gpedroni]

Hi, I didn't find any data on my DLG1320W in a search so i'll post. Does anyone have the repair/service manual on this Gas Dryer? I called a best buy, and my dryer is out of its one year warranty. The dryer when turned on, sounds like something got stuck in the blower fan. I have to turn it off because it just sounds really loud and i assume I will damage the blower motor if I leave it running. Not sure but my son left the dryer running without putting the filter back, so maybe something got sucked in and tangled up in the motor fan? I tried to open the thing up but its not as simple as a car. Anyone know how to get to the blower motor? I talked to a best buy repair tech and they said the way it sounded they were almost certain something got tangled. I hope thats just it.

I have looked at a bunch of these LG dryer service manuals and nearly all are identical. Use your tech sheet that comes with the dryer for diagnostics and this manual as a guide to get into the dryer LG gas and electric service manual I loaded on G-docs:
