The Knob Clip is an OEM part for GE washing machines and dryers. This small but crucial component is designed to secure the control knob to the appliance's control panel.  

Over time, knob clips can wear out or break due to frequent use or accidental damage. When this happens, the control knob may become loose, fall off easily, or fail to engage the control panel properly, making it difficult to set the appliance to the desired cycle or function.

Symptoms of a bad Knob Clip include:

• The control knob is loose or falls off the panel easily.
• Difficulty in adjusting settings due to a loose knob.
• The knob does not stay in place or slips when turned.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Size: 14-10 a.

Secures the blower wheel to the motor shaft. Replace when the wheel loosens or moves, causing rattling or rubbing noise. Includes clamps and screw.

The Blower Wheel is an OEM replacement part for GE dryers. It has a role in the air circulation within the dryer, aiding in the even and efficient drying of clothes. The blower wheel, connected to the motor, helps in expelling the moist air out of the dryer through the exhaust vent during the drying cycle.

Causes of a malfunctioning blower wheel are typically wear and tear from regular use, the accumulation of lint or debris, or damage to the wheel’s fins or central hub, which can impact its rotation and air circulation capability.

Symptoms of a bad Blower Wheel include:

• Unusual noises during operation
• Extended drying times
• The dryer overheating
• Reduced air circulation

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Secures your dryer motor to the cabinet to reduce vibration and noise. Replace if motor shifts or rattles during operation. Confirm fit with your model.

Metal bracket that secures the dryer motor and blower assembly in place. Replace if your mounting bracket is cracked, broken, or causing loose components.

Transfers power from motor to drum in your dryer. Replace if squeaking, not spinning, or visibly worn. Confirm fit with your model number before ordering.

Supports the idler pulley to maintain proper belt tension in your dryer. Replace if the arm is warped, cracked, or causing belt tracking issues.

The Idler Pulley is an OEM part for GE dryers. This critical component helps to maintain the correct tension on the dryer's drive belt, ensuring smooth operation and preventing it from slipping. 

Symptoms of a bad Idler Pulley include:

• Squeaking or screeching noises during dryer operation, often a sign of bearing wear or failure.
• The dryer drum not turning smoothly, or at all, indicating that the belt may be slipping or has come off entirely due to a failed pulley.
• Excessive heat or a burning smell, which can occur if the pulley is seizing up and causing friction.
• Visible wear or damage to the pulley itself.

Causes of a bad idler pulley can include worn bearings, accumulation of lint and debris that impedes rotation, or material fatigue after prolonged use.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

• Tighten snugly but avoid overtightening to prevent thread damage
• Keep removed hardware organized so you can install replacements in the original locations

Replaces a worn, damaged, or misaligned dryer motor pulley. Guides the drive belt and transfers motor power to the drum for proper rotation.

This dryer motor kit powers the drum and blower. Replacing a weak or failed motor restores proper tumbling and airflow so the dryer starts reliably and dries loads more evenly.

• Drives the drum via the belt and turns the blower wheel for airflow
• Helps resolve: dryer hums but won't start, drum won't turn, or stops mid-cycle
• Can reduce loud buzzing/grinding noises from the motor area
• Restores consistent operation when the motor overheats and trips its protector

• Disconnect power; turn off gas supply to gas dryers before servicing
• Remove panels to access the drive system; release belt tension and remove the drum as needed
• The blower wheel threads onto the motor shaft—support it carefully; many GE dryers use a reverse (left-hand) thread
• Transfer wiring and any reusable hardware to the new motor; test before reassembly

The Interlock Switch is an OEM replacement part for GE electric and gas dryers. This safety component monitors the door closure, preventing operation if the door is not securely closed and latched. The switch measures 2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide.

Symptoms of a faulty interlock switch include:

• Dryer failing to start or running with the door open  
• Timer display not illuminated when start button is pressed  
• Inability to open the dryer door during operation
• Dryer suddenly stopping mid-cycle before fully drying clothes

Causes relate to the internal component contacting the door frame over 50,000 open/close cycles potentially exposing wiring to wear. Regular cleaning the external switch area prevents dust or lint buildup skewing performance. 

This genuine GE switch is compatible with Hotpoint and RCA dryers as well.

Note: Can be used as a dishwasher door switch on specific models. Check your model number for the most accurate results.
