This door gasket seals the fridge/freezer door to maintain proper temperature and efficiency. Replaces a worn or torn seal to help reduce frost buildup and prevent cool air loss. What it does:

• Creates an airtight seal around the door perimeter to keep cold air in and warm air out.
• Helps prevent frost and ice buildup inside the compartment.
• Reduces compressor run time and helps maintain consistent internal temperatures.
• Common symptoms: visible gaps, torn or compressed seal, noticeable temperature fluctuations, or excess frost.

• Disconnect power before starting and work with clean, dry hands.
• Remove the old gasket by loosening retaining screws or pulling from the channel as applicable; inspect the channel for debris.
• Align the new gasket evenly and press into the door channel, working around the perimeter to ensure full contact.
• If needed, soften the gasket with warm water or a low-heat source per OEM guidance to help seat corners; avoid open flames.

The Door Switch is an OEM part for GE dryers, designed to ensure the dryer does not operate when the door is open. This safety feature is crucial for preventing accidents and ensuring the appliance operates efficiently and safely. The switch signals the dryer's control system about the status of the door—if it's open or closed—thereby allowing or preventing the start of a drying cycle. 

Causes of damage to the door switch often include mechanical wear from repeated use, accidental damage from loading or unloading, or electrical issues such as short circuits. 

Symptoms of a bad Door Switch include:

• The dryer not starting when the door is closed 
• The dryer continuing to run when the door is opened
• Unusual noises or the dryer stopping mid-cycle

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

This felt seal creates a smooth, airtight barrier where the drum meets the bulkhead in your dryer. Replacing a worn seal helps maintain proper airflow, protect fabrics from snagging, and reduce scraping or squealing noises during operation. What it does:

• Seals the gap between the rotating drum and front/rear bulkhead to contain heat and airflow
• Provides a low-friction, cushioned surface for the drum rim
• Helps keep lint and debris out of the cabinet
• Common symptoms of failure: longer or uneven dry times, rubbing/scraping noises, clothes catching or leaving marks at the drum edge, visibly worn or torn felt

• 1 felt seal

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, also shut off the gas supply
• Remove the top/front panel to access the drum and bulkhead; support drum as needed
• Remove old felt and adhesive; clean the mating surface thoroughly
• Dry-fit the new seal; install per manufacturer guidance; allow proper set time before reassembly
• Hand-rotate the drum to verify even contact and clearance, then test operation

The Door Latch is an OEM part for GE dryers. This part ensures the dryer door stays securely closed during operation, activating the safety switch to allow the dryer to operate. The latch mechanism engages with the door strike to lock the door, preventing it from opening while the dryer is running, which is essential for both safety and proper functioning of the appliance. 

Causes for replacement can include normal wear and tear, accidental damage, or a misalignment that prevents the door from securely latching. 

Symptoms of a bad Door Latch include:

• The dryer door doesn't stay closed during cycles.
• Difficulty in starting the dryer due to the door not activating the safety switch.
• Visible wear or damage to the latch mechanism.

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

The Dryer Bearing Slide (2-Pack) is an OEM replacement part for GE dryers. These slides are installed on the front panel of the dryer and support the drum as it rotates. They help reduce friction and wear, ensuring smooth and quiet operation during drying cycles. This pack includes two bearing slides, which are commonly used together in the dryer assembly.

Over time, bearing slides can wear down due to regular use, heat, and friction. When they become worn or damaged, the drum may no longer rotate smoothly, which can affect the dryer's performance and increase noise levels.

Symptoms of bad dryer bearing slides include:

• A loud squeaking or scraping noise during operation
• Difficulty rotating the drum manually
• Clothes taking longer to dry due to improper drum movement
• Visible wear or thinning on the existing slides

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

This Lint Screen Cover is an original and genuine OEM replacement part for GE dryers. The Lint Screen Cover plays a role in the efficient operation of your dryer. It serves as a protective grid that helps prevent objects from entering the dryer vent and causing potential damage to the internal components.

One common cause is a build-up of lint or debris, which can restrict proper airflow and result in overheating. This can lead to reduced drying efficiency, longer drying times, and potential damage to other components of the dryer.

Here are some symptoms that indicate a faulty Lint Screen Cover:

• Excessive lint accumulation around the dryer vent area
• Restricted airflow and poor drying performance
• Overheating of the dryer
• Unusual noises during operation
• Visible damage or deformation of the grid structure

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

Replacement screw that secures appliance panels and internal components, restoring proper fit and helping prevent rattling or misalignment. Use this fastener when original screws are stripped, missing, or damaged to keep parts stable and secure. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim pieces, brackets and other components to maintain proper alignment and fit.
• Replaces stripped, corroded, or missing screws that can cause rattling, vibration, or loose parts.
• Restores stable mounting for service panels and access covers to reduce noise and movement during operation.
• Simple hardware replacement — helps prevent secondary damage caused by loose or shifted components.

• Disconnect power or gas (when applicable) before servicing to avoid shock or injury.
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head; turn until snug—do not overtighten.
• Keep track of small parts and wear eye protection when working in tight spaces.
• If threads are damaged, replace with the correct OEM screw rather than forcing reuse.

The Door Strike is an OEM part for GE dryers. This component is crucial for ensuring that the dryer door latches properly when closed. It interacts with the door catch mechanism to secure the door during operation, preventing it from opening unexpectedly, which ensures the dryer operates safely and efficiently.

Symptoms of a failing Door Strike include:

• The dryer door not staying closed during a cycle
• Difficulty in closing the dryer door or getting it to latch properly
• The dryer not starting because the door switch is not engaged
• Visible damage or wear on the door strike

Causes of a bad door strike can include wear and tear from regular use, physical damage from slamming the door or mishandling, and misalignment caused by repeated opening and closing.

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

Note: If the door catch is also needed, use part number WE1M1011.

This replacement hinge supports and pivots the appliance door so it opens and closes smoothly and stays aligned. A worn or bent hinge can lead to door sagging, scraping, or poor latching that impacts performance and safety. What it does
