Over time, use and wear can cause the temperature selector to become damaged. Common signs that indicate the need for replacement include the dryer only running on a single temperature setting, the temperature not reaching the desired level, or the selector switch becoming stuck or difficult to turn. Fortunately, with a few basic tools and some patience, you can tackle this repair yourself and get your GE electric dryer back in working order. So, let&#8217;s get started!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you need any replacement parts for your appliance, you can enter your <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-find-your-appliances-model-number\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">model number<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AppliancePartsPros.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to order them.

This switch controls the amount of heat produced by the heating element during the drying cycle. By selecting a higher temperature setting, the dryer will produce more intense heat to quickly dry heavy, durable fabrics. A lower temperature setting provides gentler heat ideal for delicate items. The temperature selector works with the timer to ensure the clothes are dried thoroughly without over-drying or heat damage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Symptoms of a bad temperature selector<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the temperature selector is faulty, you may encounter any of several symptoms:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The dryer only runs on a single temperature setting, regardless of the selector position.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The dryer produces heat that does not reach the selected temperature level.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The temperature selector switch is stuck in one position or difficult to turn.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The clothes come out over-dried or excessively hot, even on a lower temperature setting.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The dryer shuts off prematurely due to overheating issues.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Possible causes\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are a few common reasons why the temperature selector may malfunction over time:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Normal wear and tear: After extensive use, the internal components of the temperature selector can become worn out, causing it to fail.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Electrical issues: Problems with the dryer&#8217;s wiring or control board can disrupt the proper function of the temperature selector.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Physical damage: If the temperature selector is bumped, dropped, or otherwise subjected to physical trauma, the internal mechanisms can become damaged.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Corrosion: Exposure to moisture, steam, or other environmental factors can cause corrosion on the selector&#8217;s electrical contacts.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are experiencing any of these symptoms with your dryer, or it tests bad, it is time to replace the faulty temperature selector.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Watch also: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qIeovdftVmE\"><b>How To Test A GE Dryer Temperature Selector WE4M407<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Safety precautions<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When working on any appliance, remember to keep safety first.
