Parts for Ge DDG7280SBLAA: 02 - Blower & Drive Assembly Parts

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 the drive motor to its mounting bracket. Replace if cracked, broken, or missing to keep the motor and blower aligned and stable during operation.

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 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

Connects motor to drum for rotation. Replace if dryer won't start, makes noise, or drum doesn't turn. Confirm fit with your model number before ordering.

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.

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

Rear drum bearing kit supports and smoothly rotates your dryer drum. Replace when you hear squealing, screeching, or grinding noises. Verify fit with your model.

Mounting screw for dryer drum support and internal components. Replaces lost, stripped, or damaged screws during repairs. Package of 12 screws included.

Bearing only, to get complete assembly order WE25M40

Size: 8-15 HX 3/8 S. Includes 12 screws.

The Flame Sensor is an OEM part for GE dryers. This part detects the presence of a flame in gas dryers, ensuring that the gas ignites properly for safe and efficient drying.

Causes of a bad flame sensor can include regular wear and tear, carbon buildup from the gas flame, or electrical malfunctions.

Symptoms of a bad flame sensor include:

• The dryer not heating or taking longer to dry clothes
• The dryer shutting off unexpectedly during a cycle
• The igniter glowing but not igniting the gas
• Error codes related to heating or ignition issues

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