The High Temp Lubricant Tube is an OEM part for Frigidaire appliances, specifically designed to withstand and operate under high temperature conditions. This lubricant is essential for the proper maintenance and functionality of various Frigidaire appliances, offering protection against heat and friction. 

Over time, the lubricant can degrade or become contaminated, which can compromise its effectiveness. Causes of a bad high temp lubricant include exposure to extreme temperatures, accumulation of dirt and debris, or simply the natural breakdown of the lubricant over prolonged use.

Symptoms of needing a new High Temp Lubricant Tube include:

• Increased noise during appliance operation
• Reduced efficiency or performance of the appliance
• Harder movement of parts that should glide smoothly

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

The Door Strike is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It is a small, essential component that ensures the dryer door remains securely closed during operation. The door strike engages with the door catch to keep the door latched, allowing the dryer to operate efficiently and safely. Without a functioning door strike, the dryer may not start, or it could stop mid-cycle.

You should replace this door strike if it becomes damaged or worn out. Over time, the door strike can suffer from wear due to regular use, misalignment, or accidental impact, leading to issues with the dryer door latching properly.

Symptoms of a bad door strike include:

• The dryer door not staying closed
• The dryer not starting or stopping unexpectedly
• Difficulty in latching the dryer door

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

The Door Switch is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. This part ensures that the dryer operates safely by only allowing the machine to run when the door is completely closed. Positioned typically at the door frame, the switch activates when the door is shut, signaling the control system that it's safe to begin the cycle.

Over time, door switches can wear out or become damaged, which can interfere with the normal operation of the dryer. 

Symptoms of a faulty Door Switch include:

• The dryer not starting when the door is closed.
• The dryer stopping unexpectedly, which might be due to a loose or faulty switch.
• A lack of the usual "click" sound that indicates the door has latched properly, suggesting the switch isn’t engaging.
• The dryer continuing to run when the door is opened, which poses a significant safety risk.

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

The Lint Trap is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It helps in capturing lint and debris generated during the drying process, preventing them from clogging the dryer vent and exhaust system.
