Parts for Ge GFD55GSPR2RS: Gas Valve & Burner Assembly Parts

This combustion chamber directs and contains the gas flame and burner assembly to enable safe, efficient drying. It replaces a cracked or corroded chamber to restore proper combustion flow and reduce flame disturbances. What it does:

• Houses the burner and directs the flame through the dryer's heat exchanger for consistent heating
• Helps prevent flame roll-out and keeps combustion gases moving through the exhaust path
• Often replaced when cracked, corroded, or damaged—symptoms include burning smells, burner not staying lit, uneven or no heat
• Works with associated burner and igniter components to maintain reliable ignition and flame stability

• Turn off gas and power to the appliance before servicing; follow local codes for gas work
• Inspect surrounding seals, gaskets, and mounting hardware and replace if damaged
• After installation, check for gas leaks and proper ignition/venting before regular use

This inlet backup thermostat is the dryer's safety temperature control at the air inlet. It opens the heater circuit if temperatures rise too high, helping protect the unit and maintain safe, consistent drying performance.

• Monitors inlet air temperature and acts as a safety cutoff for the heater circuit
• Helps maintain proper drying temperatures and protect internal components from overheating
• Failure can cause little or no heat or inconsistent heat
• Contribute to long dry times or the dryer shutting off on over-temperature

• Disconnect power before service; if gas, also shut off the gas supply
• Access the inlet duct area per your model's service information
• Note wire positions and transfer them one at a time to the new thermostat
• Ensure the thermostat mounts flush to the duct; clean lint screen, interior, and exhaust vent to restore airflow

The Hi-Limit Thermostat is an OEM part for GE dryers. As a dryer's primary temperature control component and safety switch, it monitors heat levels during cycles. The thermostat is designed to automatically cut power if temperatures exceed safe limits, preventing potential fire hazards. 

Causes of a bad thermostat can include normal wear over time, prolonged exposure to high heat, electrical faults, or physical damage. Failure to properly vent a gas dryer could also overload the thermostat.

Symptoms of a bad thermostat include:

• The dryer failing to operate as intended or prematurely ending cycles  
• Overheating issues like unusual smells or visible damage
• Inaccurate temperature readings that impact drying performance

This OEM GE replacement ensures the dryer's temperature control and safety mechanism function properly. It is compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore dryer models. Replacing a faulty thermostat helps avoid potential risks from excessively high dryer temperatures.

This radiant sensor is part of the gas dryer ignition circuit. It detects infrared heat from the igniter and burner so the gas valve only opens when ignition is present, restoring consistent and safe dryer heat.

• Detects heat from the igniter/flame and controls the gas valve circuit
• Enables safe ignition and helps maintain a steady burner flame
• Common symptoms: igniter glows but no flame, burner lights then goes out, no heat or intermittent heat, long dry times
• Used on gas dryer models

• Disconnect power and shut off gas supply before servicing; allow the burner area to cool
• Access the burner assembly; remove the lower/front panel as your model requires
• Move the wires, remove mounting screw(s), and install the new sensor in the same orientation; avoid touching the igniter
• If heating issues persist, also inspect the igniter and gas valve coils

This gas valve controls gas flow to an oven or range burner so the appliance can ignite and maintain heat safely and reliably. Replacing a faulty valve restores proper gas delivery and stable burner/oven operation. What it does:

• Regulates gas flow to the burner or oven burner assembly for ignition and sustained heating.
• Common symptom: oven or burners fail to light or the appliance won't heat consistently.
• Common symptom: burners light briefly and then go out or the oven won't reach set temperature.
• Works as the primary control between the gas supply and the appliance's ignition system.

• Turn off the appliance's gas supply and electrical power before starting work.
• Use proper tools and follow the manufacturer's service instructions; improper installation can cause gas leaks or unsafe operation.
• After install, check all connections for leaks with a soap-and-water test or follow local code requirements; do not use an open flame.

This gas supply pipe connects the stove's gas system components to deliver fuel to the burner assembly for reliable ignition and heat. It restores proper gas flow and helps prevent leaks when installed correctly. What it does:

• Routes gas from the manifold/supply to the oven/burner assembly to enable ignition.
• Restores consistent burner flame and even cooking when a damaged tube causes flow issues.
• Addresses symptoms such as burners that fail to light, weak or uneven flames, or a noticeable gas odor when the existing pipe is cracked or loose.
• Designed to work with the stove's factory gas fittings—do not force or modify to fit.

• One gas pipe

• Turn off the gas supply and disconnect power before servicing. Test for leaks after installation.
• Use proper fittings and thread sealant approved for gas connections; do not overtighten or bend the pipe.
• If you smell gas after installation, stop, ventilate the area, and immediately.

This burner assembly replaces a damaged or worn surface burner on compatible gas cooktops, restoring reliable heating for everyday cooking. It provides a direct fit replacement to help get burners heating evenly and properly. What it does

• Delivers gas to the cooktop burner so pots and pans heat correctly
• Restores even flame distribution for consistent cooking results
• Helps resolve burners that produce weak or uneven flames
• Works with the cooktop ignition system when the burner assembly is intact

• Turn off gas supply and power to the appliance before servicing
• Handle with care to avoid bending or damaging the burner ports and mounting tabs
• Inspect gaskets/seals and replace if damaged to prevent leaks

The Igniter is an OEM part for GE dryers. This part is responsible for generating a spark or glow that ignites the gas, producing the necessary heat to dry your clothes effectively. It ensures that the dryer reaches and maintains the desired temperature throughout the drying cycle.

A bad igniter can occur due to wear and tear, electrical malfunctions, or damage from excessive heat. If you notice symptoms such as the dryer not heating up, a lack of heat during the drying cycle, or the burner not igniting, it may be time to replace this part.

Symptoms of a bad igniter include:

• Dryer not heating up
• Lack of heat during the drying cycle
• Burner not igniting

Restore your GE dryer by replacing the faulty igniter with this genuine OEM part.

This GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 
 

The LP Conversion Kit is an OEM part for GE dryers. This kit allows for the conversion of a natural gas dryer to operate on liquid propane (LP) gas. It includes all necessary components to ensure a safe and efficient conversion process, including a new orifice, regulator spring, and installation instructions.

Causes of needing a conversion kit can include moving to an area where only LP gas is available or preferring the use of LP gas over natural gas. Additionally, some users may find LP gas more economical or suitable for their specific needs and appliances.

Symptoms indicating a conversion is needed include:

• Moving to a location without natural gas service
• Preferring the use of LP gas for cost or availability reasons
• Acquiring a natural gas dryer when LP gas is the available fuel source

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