I need to know how to get the front panel that holds the dryer door off. I removed the panel that is over the washing machine and can see the dryer drum and found the broken belt but I can not get the panel off that holds the door. I got it detached at the top by removing the screws but the bottom will not release.

This doesn't look like the best designed machine in the world for getting access to the drain pump.
You aren't going to get in through the front. Don't attempt to remove the door seals (only bad things will come of this!)
Looking at the diagrams in ftp://ftp.electrolux-na.com/ProdInfo_PDF/Webster/5995464004.pdf, I think your best route in is to tip the machine back (careful it doesn't topple onto you) and go in through the bottom.
Your first target is the strainer shown as item 40 on page 6. If that's clear, then look in items 41 and 35.
Use the coins you fish out to buy yourself a celebratory drink.

remove screws holding console on ..2 on bottom rail and 1 in each lower corner of console they are recessed .console will drop slightly and off 1 screw in each corner of front panel be sure to not loose them they go in these spots only..flat heads..recommend removing large front panel between 2 units remove blower housing 2 clips or screws each corner lint screen housing on inside..reach through and remove belt this will make reassembly easier by removing downward pressure on drum ..

SOURCE: bearing on front load washing machine needs replacing (Frigidaire
You will need to replace the tub rear shell/bearing assembly (part # 131525500).
To do this, practically the whole machine will need to come apart.
To remove the drive pulley, remove rear cabinet panel. Remove the pulley screw and pull back on the pulley (you may need to giggle it as you pull to remove it).
For the shock pins, grab the open end with a pair of vise-grips. On the "pointy" side of the pin press the tab in with your finger (if you can't push the tab in slide a 9/16" socket onto it) and pull the pin out with the vise-grips (twist back and forth slightly as you pull).
A qualified tech could replace the rear shell/bearing in about 1.5 - 2 hrs. I can certainly give you more help if you need it, let me know.
Good luck!
1) Verify a circuit breaker
isn't tripped
2) Advance the timer
control dial slowly 360 degrees-
If the washer starts
spinning, then we know the motor and drive belt are
fine but that there is something wrong with either the timer control dial or
the agitator solenoid. Call in a professional for this.
If the washer doesn't budge, then verify that the drive belt(s) is
attached and not broken by removing the back panel. If the belt is broken,
replace it. If it is loose, then tighten it by loosening up the bolt holding
the motor and moving it on its swingarm (much like a car alternator) until
there is a 1/2 to 3/4 inch deflection in the belt.
Some washers use reversing motors. It's possible the motor works on the spin
cycle but not on the wash cycle. If so, call a pro.
3) Visually inspect the lid
safety switch- Is it loose or cracked?
If so, the washer might work intermittently, stopping at different cycles.
4) Check motor and drive belt- Remove the main access panel (usually in the back). Is the motor spinning, but the drive belt isn't? If so, then you have a drive belt problem.
