Parts for Frigidaire FLXE52RBS0: 03 - Dryer-Motor, Blower, Belt Parts

This air duct seal creates a tight barrier between the dryer's lint housing and cabinet. Replacing a worn seal helps prevent air leaks, maintain proper airflow through the lint filter, and restore consistent drying performance.

• Seals the air duct/lint housing to the front panel to direct airflow through the lint screen and drum
• Helps maintain dryer efficiency and temperature control by preventing bypass air leaks
• Common symptoms of a failed seal include longer dry times, weak exhaust airflow, excess lint inside the cabinet, or lint around the door opening
• Replaces a deteriorated or missing seal to restore the intended air path

• Disconnect power; shut off gas supply for gas models
• Access the air duct by removing the lint screen and top/front panels as needed
• Remove the old seal and any residue; clean mating surfaces before installing the new seal
• Seat the duct evenly against the panel when reassembling to ensure a uniform seal

A replacement mounting screw used to fasten panels and components in compatible Frigidaire appliances. Replacing a missing or damaged screw restores secure fastening, reduces vibration/rattling, and helps keep parts aligned for reliable operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim, brackets or small components to prevent movement and rattling
• Replaces missing, stripped, or damaged fasteners that can cause loose or misaligned parts
• Helps maintain proper fit and finish of appliance panels and access covers
• Useful when a loose screw causes vibration noise or minor part movement

• Unplug the appliance or shut off power at the breaker before servicing electrical appliances
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to match the screw head to avoid stripping
• Start threads by hand, then tighten until snug; avoid overtightening which can strip threads or crack plastic
• Keep small parts away from children and retain any removed hardware for reuse

The blower housing seal is a perimeter gasket that closes the gap between the blower housing and the adjoining duct or bulkhead. It keeps airflow contained for efficient operation and helps prevent air leaks and debris from escaping.

• Seals the blower housing joint to minimize air leakage
• Helps maintain proper airflow for consistent performance
• Reduces dust/debris escape into the cabinet or surrounding area
• Replaces torn, brittle, flattened, or missing seals that can cause weak air output or rattling

• Disconnect power; turn off gas supply before servicing.
• Access the blower housing; note the original routing/orientation of the seal.
• Remove the old seal and clean mating surfaces of lint and residue.
• Seat the new seal evenly with no gaps or twists; reassemble and verify airflow.

• Directs and focuses airflow through the heat-exchange coils for proper operation
• Supports and aligns the blower wheel so it spins with correct clearance
• Helps minimize vibration and noise when the housing is intact
• Symptoms of a failed housing may include scraping or rattling noises, weak airflow, vibration, or visible cracks/broken mounts around the blower area

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection.
• Remove the front panel/cabinet to access the blower section; note screw and clip locations.
• Transfer the blower wheel, seals, and any reusable hardware from the old housing.
• Before reassembly, spin the blower wheel by hand to ensure free, rub-free rotation.

The Idler Arm Assembly is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It is an essential component of the dryer's drum support system, responsible for maintaining the proper alignment and smooth rotation of the drum during operation. The idler arm assembly typically consists of an idler arm, pulley, and bearings, working together to support the weight of the drum and facilitate its rotational movement.

Symptoms of a bad idler arm assembly in a dryer include:

• Loud squeaking or grinding noises during operation
• Excessive vibration or shaking of the dryer
• Difficulty in starting or maintaining the drum's rotation
• Potential damage to other components due to misalignment

Causes of a bad idler arm assembly can include wear and tear over time, damage from foreign objects entering the drum, or issues with the bearings or pulley components. A faulty idler arm assembly can lead to improper drum alignment, increased friction, and potential damage to other parts of the dryer.
