This terminal block assembly connects your dryer's power cord to the internal wiring, providing a secure, heat-resistant junction. Replacing a damaged block restores a reliable electrical connection and helps prevent intermittent power, overheating, or burnt terminals.

• Provides an insulated junction point between incoming power and the appliance's internal wiring
• Secures cord conductors with screw terminals to maintain a tight, low-resistance connection
• Helps resolve issues like the dryer not powering on, intermittent shutdowns, or a burning smell near the cord cover
• Replaces cracked, melted, or stripped terminals to restore a safe power path

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Photograph/label wire positions and move one wire at a time to the new block
• Tighten terminal screws firmly; recheck connections after initial operation
• Inspect/replace any heat-damaged cord lugs, wiring, or strain relief before reassembly

This terminal block provides the mounting point and secure electrical connection for the appliance power leads. Replacing a damaged or corroded terminal block restores a solid power connection and reduces arcing or intermittent power. What it does:

• Provides a secure connection between the incoming power cord and the appliance wiring
• Holds and isolates power terminals to prevent shorting and arcing
• Commonly fails when terminals are burned, corroded, loose, or when wires heat at the connection
• Symptoms of a failing terminal include loss of power, intermittent power, visible burn marks or arcing at the connection, and melted or discolored insulation

• One terminal block

• Always disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Tighten mounting screws and terminal screws securely; inspect and replace any damaged wire insulation

This motor connector housing is the molded body that holds the motor's wire terminals for a secure, insulated connection. Replacing a cracked or heat-damaged housing helps restore reliable motor operation and prevent intermittent power issues.

• Organizes and insulates the motor's wiring terminals
• Locks the harness to the motor for a firm electrical connection
• Helps reduce loose contacts, arcing, and heat damage at the plug
