Parts for Ge GUD27ESPM1DG: Drum Parts

Dryer not heating or shutting off mid-cycle? A faulty safety thermostat can cut heat when temperatures climb too high. Direct heater duct mount part.

Supports and stabilizes the dryer drum for smooth rotation. Replace if shaft is worn, bearing is damaged, or drum wobbles or sinks at the rear.

This replacement drum assembly is the rotating cylinder that tumbles laundry in your dryer. Replacing a damaged or out-of-round drum restores smooth, quiet tumbling and helps protect fabrics from snags, scraping, and uneven drying.

• Forms the rotating chamber that holds clothes; driven by the belt and motor to tumble items for drying
• Works with drum seals and lifters/baffles to maintain airflow and separate fabrics for even drying
• Replacing a dented, cracked, or out-of-round drum can resolve thumping, scraping, or rumbling noises
• Addresses sharp seams, loose spots, or rust that can snag/tear clothing or leave marks

• Disconnect power; shut off gas supply for gas models before service
• Remove top/front panels and release belt tension to lift out the old drum; note belt routing
• Compare parts and move over any reusable, model-specific components if required
• Inspect belt, idler pulley, bearings, and felt seals while open; replace if worn

The Baffle is an OEM part for GE electric dryers. Located inside the dryer drum, it helps separate clothes and improves air circulation during tumbling cycles. 

To achieve consistent drying times, a dryer relies on balanced airflow penetrating all areas where clothes reside. The baffle creates divisions to ensure air fully surrounds each layer instead of bypassing some areas. Its raised ridges also help tumbling action by preventing clumps of clothes.

Symptoms of a bad baffle include:

• Slow, uneven drying requiring extra cycles  
• Certain areas of clothes remain damp while others over-dry
• Reduced airflow output from the vent due to blockage

Replacing it with the genuine GE baffle plate restores optimized air distribution within the drum. The part is also compatible with some Kenmore dryers that use GE elements.

Dryer not heating or taking too long to dry? This heating element and housing assembly restores proper heat generation and airflow for even drying.
