The Control Board is an OEM part for GE dryers. As the central electronics module, it regulates all dryer functions and operations during cycles. The control board receives input from temperature sensors and buttons to distribute power accordingly.

Causes of a bad control board can include normal wear over time, water damage, electrical faults that arise with many uses, or physical impacts. Prolonged exposure to high heat cycles can sometimes lead to component failures or short circuits that disrupt proper functioning.

Symptoms of a bad control board include: 

• The dryer failing to start or operating unpredictably  
• Display/button malfunctions where settings cannot be accessed
• Inability to progress fully through cycles
• Erratic stopping, hanging, or inconsistent behaviors

This OEM GE replacement control board restores full and intended operation to the dryer. This part is compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore dryer models.

The Heater is an OEM component specifically designed for GE dryers. It is responsible for providing the necessary heat to remove moisture from clothes during the drying cycle. The heater works in conjunction with the blower and venting system to circulate warm air through tumbling clothes.

Causes of a bad heater include cracked or damaged heating coils, failed heating elements, or malfunctioning temperature controls. 

Symptoms of a bad heater are:

• Excessively long drying times even on low moisture loads
• Drying cycles that never seem to get clothing fully dry  
• Odd smells emanating from the dryer vent during the operation
• No heat detected from the air ducts of the dryer

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

The Rear Bearing is an OEM part for GE electric dryers. Located at the rear of the drum assembly, it supports rotational movement during tumbling cycles. 

As a moving part subjected to prolonged spinning, normal wear affects bearing operation over time. Degraded lubrication or component damage increases friction and compromises function.

Symptoms of a faulty rear bearing include:  

• Grinding or grinding noises emerging from the rear drum area
• Resistance to smooth, efficient drum rotation  
• Potential damage or failure of other interconnected components

Causes are typically from standard wear and accumulation of lint/dust over extended usage periods. Impacts may also prematurely affect bearing integrity on occasion.

This genuine GE replacement bearing restores smooth, quiet operation. Compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore dryers.

This ground screw secures an appliance's chassis grounding connection to ensure a reliable electrical ground and help reduce the risk of shock or electrical faults. Simple replacement when the original screw is missing, damaged, or corroded. What it does:

• Fastens the appliance ground wire or grounding strap to the metal chassis for a secure electrical ground.
• Restores a proper grounding point when the original screw is loose, stripped, corroded, or missing.
• Helps address symptoms related to poor grounding, such as intermittent power, electrical noise, or tripped breakers (as reported).
• Provides a direct, stable connection that supports safe appliance operation.

• One ground screw

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any repairs to avoid electrical shock.
• Tighten to snug contact with the chassis; avoid overtightening which can strip threads or damage the metal.
• If ground wire or chassis threads are damaged, inspect for necessary additional parts or repair.

The Fuse for Dryer is an OEM replacement part for GE electric dryers. The fuse acts as a safety shut-off mechanism, protecting the dryer's electrical components from power surges or overloading. It plays a critical role in circuit protection.

Causes of a blown fuse can include power fluctuations, overloading due to wet/heavy loads, or underlying electrical component issues in the dryer. The fuse shields expensive components like motors, heating elements, and electronic boards.

Symptoms of a blown fuse include:

• The dryer not powering on at all  
• Cycles not completing or functionality issues mid-cycle
• Safety features like the timer not working properly
