Hello rednek. Welcome to the Gas Appliances topic and the Do-It-Yourself Web Site.
Some brands do not have an access front panel per say. You have to lift the top lid first. To do so, the two holding clips must be released. The holding clips are between the top lid and the front panel. That thin space between them.
In front, between top lid and front panel, in front both corners about 3-5 inches there will be the two holding clips. Some thing the thickness of a credit card must be inserted to push the clips back just enough to free the top lid from the front panel.
Once top lid is released from front panel, look down the sides. Should be two screws to remove. Once they are removed the front panel should come off. But also consider there still may be screws holding the front panel inside the door and/or at the very bottom of the front panel also.
Hope this helps. You did not provide enough specific details nor a brand nor a model, etc. Above instructions apply to brands where no visable screws can be seen. Also check inside the dryers door frame for screws....:)
Be sure the electrical power to the appliance is turned off, before attempting any repairs or services. Always check for gas leaks whenever moving the appliance and/or a service or repair includes any connection of a gas part.
