How to reverse the door on a maytag dryer?

You will just need a phillips screwdriver.

Remove the phillips screws in side the door that hold on the outer chrome/silver plastic door trim. There are 5 of them and they have a very coarse thread. Remove and set aside.
Now you can get to the 4 screws that hold the inner metal door to the hinge. (There are actually 5 but one is a dummy.) Remove them and set the inner metal door aside.
Take the hinge off the one side and move it to the other. Remove the sticker over the holes carefully and slowly so you can reuse over the old holes.
Attach the hinge on the other side. Attach metal inner door to hinge. Do not forget the plastic plugs that go in the old hinge alignment holes and the old hinge screws.
Take the screws out that hold the chrome/silver outer trim ring off the outer plastic part of the door and spin it 180 degrees and reattach. You will also have to switch the endcap rings to opposite sides so the handle is accessible and the hinge can go through the other side of the door. The endcaps are cut at a slightly different angle but they fit OK.
Attach outer chrome/silver trim ring to inner metal door.
You are done. I hope I did not leave anything out. I just did this but, this post is from memory.
