Parts for Lg DLE4870W: Control Panel And Plate Assembly Parts

The Main PCB Assembly is an OEM part for LG dryers. It is the primary control board that manages the dryer’s functions, including the timing, temperature regulation, and various cycles. 

Causes of a bad Main PCB Assembly can include electrical surges, wear and tear over time, or damage due to moisture or physical impact. A malfunctioning control board can lead to a variety of operational issues, affecting the dryer’s overall performance and reliability.

Symptoms of a bad Main PCB Assembly include:

• Dryer not starting
• Display panel not responding or showing error codes
• Inconsistent drying times or temperatures
• Dryer stopping mid-cycle

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.

This knob assembly replaces a worn or broken control knob so you can reliably set and adjust appliance settings. It restores a secure, easy-to-turn interface for the appliance's control shaft. What it does:

• Fits onto the control shaft to allow manual selection of settings and temperatures.
• Replaces cracked, stripped, or loose knobs that no longer grip the control shaft.
• Helps resolve issues where the control won't turn smoothly or slips while changing settings.
• Restores tactile feedback for accurate user control.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before removing or installing the knob.
• Pull the old knob straight off the control shaft.
