The Motor is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It is responsible for driving the drum rotation in the dryer, allowing for the tumbling and drying of clothes. It converts electrical energy into mechanical motion, providing the necessary power to spin the drum and circulate air for efficient drying.

Causes of a faulty dryer motor can include wear and tear over time, electrical malfunctions, or physical damage. These factors can result in issues such as the drum not spinning, unusual noises during operation, or the dryer not heating properly.

Symptoms of a bad dryer motor may include:

• The drum not rotating or spinning
• Unusual grinding or squealing noises while the dryer is in use
• Dryer not generating heat or insufficient drying performance

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

Dryer not heating or shutting off early? The safety thermostat monitors temperature and cuts power when it gets too hot. Tests quickly with a multimeter.

This small pin secures the program selection knob to the dryer's control panel shaft. Replace if the control knob spins freely without changing settings or falls off the control panel.

The side discharge tube is a plastic or rubber tube that routes exhaust air or fluid out through the side of an appliance, such as a dishwasher, washing machine, or refrigerator drain system. It directs water or air away from internal components to prevent buildup or damage. Replace this tube if it is cracked, kinked, or leaking, causing water or air to discharge in the wrong location.
