Parts for Ge GFD45GSSM1WW: Gas Valve & Burner Assembly Parts

This factory screw secures dryer panels and internal components, keeping assemblies tight and aligned so the machine operates safely and without vibration or rattling.

• Fastens sheet-metal panels, brackets, or trim to the dryer cabinet/frame
• A loose or missing screw can cause panel vibration, noise, or misalignment
• Helps restore stability after service or when original hardware is lost
• Typical symptoms include rattling, loose panels, or gaps in trim

• Unplug the dryer before servicing
• Keep track of original screw locations and lengths; replace like-for-like
• Start screws by hand to avoid cross-threading, then snug—do not overtighten
• If threads are damaged, inspect mating hole or clip before installing

This gas valve regulates and safely delivers fuel to your dryer's burner. When operating correctly, it opens for ignition and closes when heat is satisfied, providing consistent, reliable heating for effective drying.

• Opens to allow gas into the burner when the ignition system calls for heat
• Closes to stop gas flow during cycling or if ignition fails
• Possible symptoms: dryer runs but no heat; igniter glows yet no flame; intermittent heat or long dry times
• Helps restore proper burner ignition and stable flame

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Work in a well-ventilated area; check all connections for leaks with a non-corrosive leak-detection solution after installation
• Transfer any brackets, fittings, or orifices from the original valve as required; secure connections
• Confirm gas type (natural/LP) and regulator/orifice settings per the service manual before restoring service

The Igniter is an OEM part for GE dryers. It is designed to ignite the gas burner to produce heat, which is essential for drying clothes. The igniter ensures that the gas is lit efficiently and safely, enabling the dryer to reach and maintain the proper temperature for effective drying.

You should replace the igniter if it becomes faulty. Causes of a bad igniter can include electrical failures, cracks or breaks in the igniter material, or wear and tear from regular use. These issues can prevent the igniter from generating the necessary heat to ignite the gas.

Symptoms of a bad igniter include:

• The dryer not heating up
• Extended drying times
• The igniter glowing but failing to light the gas burner
•  A lack of flame in gas dryers

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

This replacement gas valve bracket secures the oven/range gas valve to the chassis, keeping the valve aligned and stable for reliable gas flow. Fits where the valve mounts to the appliance frame to restore proper positioning and reduce vibration. What it does:

• Holds the gas valve firmly in place to prevent movement or misalignment
• Maintains correct spacing between the valve and burner assembly for safe operation
• Helps eliminate rattling or vibration caused by a loose or damaged bracket
• Supports consistent valve operation that can reduce ignition or heating issues related to a loose mount

• One gas valve mounting bracket

• Shut off gas supply and unplug the appliance before starting any work
• Only install on the mount specified by the OEM; use correct fasteners and torque to avoid stripping or deformation
• After installation, check all gas fittings and connections for leaks using a gas leak detector or soapy-water test

Liquid propane to natural gas

The LP Conversion Kit is an OEM part for GE dryers. It is designed to convert a natural gas dryer to liquid propane (LP) gas. This conversion kit ensures that the dryer operates efficiently and safely with LP gas, which requires different pressure settings and orifices than natural gas.

Causes of a bad LP conversion kit can include improper installation, damage to the kit components, or compatibility issues with the dryer model.

Symptoms of a bad LP conversion kit include:

• Dryer not heating properly
• Unusual gas odors
• Inconsistent drying performance
• Burner flame issues

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