The Backsplash Assembly for Dryer is an OEM replacement part for GE electric and gas dryers. It forms the wall at the back of the dryer cabinet, protecting internal components from water, dust, and impact damage. This structural piece is important for dryer integrity. 

Causes of a bad backsplash assembly include normal wear and tear, accidental impacts, or rust forming behind the panel if moisture penetrates cracked seals. 

Symptoms of a bad backsplash assembly include:

• Visible cracks, warping, or denting of the panel material
• Looseness allowing gaps or movement of the assembly  
• Internal rust or component damage over many wash/dry cycles

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

The Rotary Knob is an OEM replacement part for GE or Hotpoint washing machines. It provides the interface for selecting wash cycles and adjusting settings like temperature and spin speed.

Causes of a bad rotary knob include cracking, peeling, or damage to labeling from repeated use over time. The internal mechanisms can also wear out, preventing proper rotation.

Symptoms of a bad rotary knob are:

• Difficulty turning or clicking into set positions
• Loose, wobbly, or disconnected feel during use
• Faded or missing labels make settings unclear

It is also compatible with RCA, Westinghouse, Tappan, and some Kenmore models.

The Blower Wheel is an OEM component specifically designed for GE dryers. It is responsible for circulating air during the drying cycle, directing airflow through lint and clothes to remove moisture. The plastic blades of the blower wheel push air through the dryer and out the vent when the motor is running. 

Symptoms of a bad blower wheel include:

• Slow or inefficient drying times even on low moisture loads    
• Strange noises from inside the dryer cabinet      
• Excessive vibrations felt through the dryer door or cabinet
• Bent or cracked blower wheel blades

Causes can include normal wear and tear over time, accidents that damage the blades, or failures in the secure mounting of the blower wheel.

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.

This idler support bracket holds the dryer idler pulley in the correct position so the drive belt stays routed and tensioned, helping the drum turn smoothly. It replaces a worn or broken bracket to restore proper belt alignment and reduce belt slippage. What it does:

• Secures the idler pulley to the dryer chassis so the drive belt maintains correct tension
• Keeps the belt aligned to prevent rubbing, squealing, or premature wear
• Helps the drum turn freely by maintaining consistent belt routing and tension
• Commonly replaced when the bracket is cracked, bent, or the idler pulley mounting fails

• One idler support bracket

• Disconnect power before starting any repair
• Access typically requires removing the dryer's front or lower access panel; follow model-specific disassembly steps
• Inspect the idler pulley and drive belt; replace any worn components together to ensure reliable operation
• Use basic hand tools; avoid forcing fasteners and follow torque/fastening recommendations in the service manual

Dryer squealing or drum won't turn? This idler arm assembly keeps the drive belt tight and aligned for smooth drum rotation. Moderate DIY repair.

This plate motor drives the microwave/oven turntable, keeping the glass tray rotating for even cooking and heating. Replaces a worn or failed motor to restore tray rotation and reduce uneven heating. What it does:

• Turns the glass turntable so food cooks evenly
• Stops rotation or hesitates when motor fails or wears out
• May make buzzing, grinding, or intermittent noises before failing
• Prevents the turntable from rotating if the motor no longer engages

• One replacement plate (turntable) motor

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock; verify unit is fully powered off
• Remove the turntable glass and roller guide to access the motor underneath the oven/microwave floor

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.

Causes of a bad motor and blower assembly can include failures of either the drive motor or blower motor. Wiring issues or damaged components internal to the assembly housing can also impact performance.  

Symptoms of a bad motor & blower assembly include:

• The dryer drum not spinning or tumbling clothes
• Inadequate or no airflow through the dryer 
• Dryer not heating or cycles taking excessively long
• Loud buzzing or grinding noises from internal motors

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