The Rear Drum Support Shaft is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers, specifically designed to ensure the stability and smooth rotation of the dryer drum. This component plays a pivotal role in the dryer's operation by supporting the rear of the drum, allowing it to turn evenly and quietly during cycles. Note: The rear drum bearing kit is 5303281153.

The causes behind these issues often stem from normal wear and tear, excessive loads that strain the dryer's components, or lack of regular maintenance. Over time, the support shaft can wear down, become loose, or even corrode, leading to operational inefficiencies and potential damage to the dryer.

Symptoms of a failing Rear Drum Support Shaft include:

• Unusual noises, such as thumping or squeaking, during operation
• The dryer drum struggling to rotate or not rotating at all
• Increased wear on other components, such as the belt or motor, due to improper drum alignment

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

The Thermal Limiter is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It acts as a safety feature, designed to prevent the dryer from overheating by shutting down the appliance when the internal temperature exceeds safe limits. 

Symptoms of a failing Thermal Limiter include:

• The dryer failing to start or stopping abruptly during a cycle
• No heat being generated while the dryer is running
• The dryer overheating or feeling excessively hot

Common causes for a bad thermal limiter include restricted airflow due to a clogged lint filter or venting system, component failure from age or faulty manufacturing, and unusually high operating temperatures from overloading the dryer or mechanical failures elsewhere in the system. When a thermal limiter trips or fails, it must be replaced to restore functionality to the dryer.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
