Parts for Crosley CDG2000FW1: Motor Parts

This locking clip secures the fan/blower housing in place to keep the airflow path sealed and stable. Replacing a worn or missing lock helps eliminate rattles and air leaks for consistent, quiet operation. What it does:

• Secures the fan/blower housing to its mounting points to prevent movement
• Helps maintain a tight seal for proper airflow through the exhaust path
• May correct rattling, vibration, or scraping noises from the blower area
• A loose or missing lock can allow the housing to shift, causing air leaks and reduced performance

• Fan housing lock

• Disconnect electrical power; if applicable, shut off gas supply before servicing
• Access the blower/fan housing by removing the appropriate access panel(s)
• Note orientation, then release and replace the lock; ensure the housing seats fully and evenly
• Clear lint from the area and verify the blower wheel spins freely before reassembly and testing

The Blower Housing Assembly is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It houses the blower wheel, which circulates air through the dryer drum and out the exhaust. This assembly ensures that hot air is efficiently directed through the dryer to dry clothes properly.

Over time, the blower housing assembly can become damaged or worn out, affecting the dryer's performance. Causes of a bad blower housing assembly can include accumulation of lint or debris, wear and tear from frequent use, or physical damage to the housing or blower wheel.

Symptoms of a bad Blower Housing Assembly include:

• Reduced or no airflow from the dryer vent
• Unusual noises during operation
• Clothes taking longer to dry
• Overheating or frequent cycling off of the dryer

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

This small spacer fits on the idler assembly shaft to properly space and align the belt tensioner. Replacing a worn spacer helps keep the drive belt tracking correctly so the drum/tub runs smoothly and quietly. What it does:

• Spaces and centers the idler pulley on its shaft
• Helps maintain proper belt alignment and tension
• Can reduce squeaking or chirping from the idler area
• A worn or missing spacer may let the belt ride off, fray, or stop the drum/tub

• 1 idler spacer

• Disconnect power before servicing; let hot components cool
• Access the idler assembly per your model, relieve belt tension, and remove retaining hardware to slide off the pulley and old spacer
• Install the new spacer in the same location/orientation; reassemble and route the belt correctly
• Rotate the drum/tub by hand to verify smooth belt tracking before restoring power

This control thermostat regulates the dryer's operating temperature. It senses exhaust air heat and cycles the heater on and off to maintain consistent drying performance and help protect the appliance from overheating. What it does:

• Monitors exhaust temperature and controls the heating element to hold the selected heat level
• Helps prevent overheating by cycling heat off when the target temperature is reached
• Supports even drying and consistent cycle times
• Typical failure symptoms: no heat or not enough heat, long dry times, runs too hot, inconsistent temperatures

• 1 control thermostat

• Disconnect power before servicing; if gas, also shut off the gas supply
• Access location varies by model; typically mounted on the heater housing or exhaust duct
• Transfer wire leads one at a time to the new thermostat and secure with the original screws
• After reassembly, clean the lint path and ensure good airflow to prevent repeat failures

This hex head screw spacer is a replacement threaded fastener that secures and spaces components while cutting its own thread in softer mating material for a tight fit. It's useful for repairs where the original spacer screw is missing or damaged. What it does:

• Acts as a spacer and fastener to hold panels, brackets, or assemblies at a set distance
• Thread-cutting tip forms secure threads in compatible materials for reliable engagement
• Helps stop movement or vibration of connected parts that can cause noise or wear
• Commonly used where the original hex-head spacer screw is corroded, stripped, or broken

• Use the correct screwdriver or wrench on the hex head to avoid rounding the fastener
• Start threads straight and apply steady pressure; do not force if resistance indicates misalignment
• Use appropriate torque — overtightening can strip the formed threads or damage parts
• Wear eye protection and follow appliance power/disconnect safety before servicing

This idler spring attaches to the idler arm to keep the drive belt properly tensioned, preventing slip and chatter. Replacing a weak or broken spring restores steady rotation and helps reduce noise and belt wear.

• Maintains correct belt tension by pulling the idler arm into position
• Helps prevent belt slippage, squealing/chirping, and premature belt wear
• A failed spring can cause no or intermittent rotation and the belt coming off
• Typical signs include a loose belt, off-track belt, or rhythmic squeak from the base

• Disconnect power before servicing; if working on a gas appliance, shut off the gas supply
• Access the idler assembly; note belt routing before removal
• Relieve belt tension, then move the idler arm to remove and replace the spring on the same mounting holes
• After reassembly, rotate by hand to verify smooth belt tracking before test

The Idler Arm Pulley is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. This part keeps the belt aligned and tight, preventing slippage and contributing to consistent drum rotation. 

Causes of a bad Idler Arm Pulley can range from normal wear and tear, which can degrade the pulley's material or bearings, to improper alignment that puts undue stress on the pulley, leading to premature failure.

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Idler Arm Pulley include:

• Unusual noises, such as squeaking or rumbling, indicating the pulley may be worn or loose
• The dryer drum failing to rotate, even though the motor is running
• Excessive wear or damage to the dryer belt

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

The Dryer Drum Belt is an OEM replacement part designed for use with Frigidaire dryers. This critical component is responsible for turning the drum of your dryer, allowing your clothes to tumble freely and dry evenly. 

Causes of a bad Dryer Drum Belt can include wear and tear from regular use, overloading the dryer, which puts extra strain on the belt, or exposure to excessive heat, which can cause the belt to become brittle and break.

Symptoms of a bad Dryer Drum Belt include:

• The dryer motor running but the drum not turning
• Unusual noises, such as thumping or squealing, coming from the dryer when it is running
• The dryer not starting at all, in some cases

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models, ensuring a wide range of users can benefit from its reliable operation.

NOTE: Please note that this dryer drum belt is sold individually. Any additional parts or hardware will require additional purchases.

The Motor Mounting Clamp is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. This clamp secures the motor in place within the dryer, ensuring it operates smoothly and remains stable during the drying cycles. The motor mounting clamp is essential for maintaining the proper alignment and function of the dryer motor.

Over time, the motor mounting clamp can become worn out or damaged due to constant vibration and movement. Accidental impacts or mishandling during maintenance can also cause the clamp to fail, leading to motor misalignment or instability.

Symptoms of a bad motor mounting clamp include:

• Excessive noise or vibration during the drying cycle
• Motor shifting or moving within the dryer
• Reduced drying efficiency
• The dryer not starting or stopping abruptly

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
