Parts for Ge GUV27ESSM0WW: Drum Parts

This replacement screw secures appliance panels and internal components per your model's hardware list. Replace lost or stripped screws to keep assemblies tight, reduce vibration and rattles, and maintain proper alignment.

• Fastens brackets, covers, and sheet-metal panels as specified in the parts diagram
• Restores proper fit when an original screw is missing, stripped, or damaged
• Helps eliminate rattling or vibration from loose hardware
• Keeps components safely in place during operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Match length, head style, and thread to the original; install in the same location/quantity
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten with the correct driver
• Do not overtighten, especially into plastic or thin sheet metal

The Cycling Thermostat is an OEM part for GE dryers. It regulates the temperature inside the dryer drum by cycling the heating element on and off, ensuring that the dryer maintains an optimal drying temperature throughout the cycle. This thermostat is essential for efficient drying performance and preventing overheating.

Causes of a bad cycling thermostat can include regular wear and tear, exposure to high temperatures, or electrical malfunctions. A faulty thermostat can disrupt the drying process and may lead to safety concerns.

Symptoms of a bad cycling thermostat include:

• The dryer not heating properly
• Clothes taking longer than usual to dry
• The dryer overheating or shutting off prematurely
• The dryer not starting or completing cycles

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

The High Limit Thermostat is an OEM part for GE dryers. It serves as a crucial safety component, designed to prevent overheating by cutting off power to the dryer's heating elements when excessive temperatures are detected.

Symptoms of a faulty High Limit Thermostat include:

• Dryer not heating or running at all
• Dryer cycling on and off repeatedly during operation
• Error codes related to the thermal protection system

Causes of a bad High Limit Thermostat can include exposure to excessive heat over time, electrical issues, or physical damage to the thermostat itself. 

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

This safety thermostat mounts on the left side of the dryer's heater/air duct. It helps protect the dryer by opening the heat circuit if temperatures climb too high, preventing overheating and enabling safe operation.

• Monitors dryer temperature and opens the circuit when excessive heat is detected
• Helps prevent overheating that could damage components or fabrics
• Typical failure symptoms: no heat, long dry times, very hot cabinet, or a burning smell
• Location-specific part: installs on the left side of the heater housing/exhaust duct

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, also shut off gas supply
• Access the heater housing/exhaust duct; note left-side location and take a photo of wire positions
• Transfer wires one at a time and secure the thermostat with existing hardware
• Clean lint paths and verify venting/airflow to prevent repeat overheating

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.

This is a small screw, and it is made for dryers, washers, and washer dryer combos. This is a genuine replacement part made by General Electric. Screws are common in these appliances and can cause many difficulties if they become loose, damaged, or missing.A new screw might be needed if there are areas in the appliance that seem off balance or not level. Another way to tell if a new screw is needed is if there are parts in the appliance that are loose or falling off. This is common over many years of normal use as the shaking of washers and dryers can eventually lead to loose screws. Be sure the washer or dryer is completely off before attempting to replace any screws.This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually and is compatible with washers, dryers, and washer dryer combos made by General Electric.

Replace a failed heating element with this Heater and Housing Assembly. It restores proper electric heat and airflow through the drum so loads dry evenly and within a normal cycle time. What it does:

• Generates heat as air moves through the element canister
• Replaces a broken, shorted, or open heater to restore drying performance
• Typical symptoms: no heat, very long dry times, drum tumbles but stays cool
• Often confirmed by an open (no continuity) reading on the element with a multimeter

• One heater and housing assembly

• Disconnect power by unplugging the dryer or switching off the circuit breaker; allow the unit to cool
• Access the heater housing, label wire positions, and remove mounting fasteners to swap the assembly
• Transfer any reusable brackets or hardware from the old unit as required by your model
• After installation, confirm good airflow and clean the vent/duct to prevent overheating and repeat failures
