Juan M February 01, 2021 for Model Number GTD42EASJWW What is the size ,of screws inside the dryer grill please
1 Answer Juan, Thanks for the question! I am assuming you mean the grill in the back of the drum, it uses screw part number WE2M163. Read More...
David B. December 21, 2020 for Model Number DDC0580VELWH I just wanted to confirm, as seemed to be confirmed by one of the answers to a question, that WE25X205 is interchangeable with WE25M40. In other words, that the latter simply has more parts. I ask this, because the WE25X205 screws look more like what I have, as opposed to the WE25M40, with the protective washers. Thanks!
1 Answer David, These would be slightly different in design and you would want to use the kit WE25M40 as it is for your unit. Read More...
Mark June 11, 2020 for Model Number DLB 6850BBL The sides of the dryer unit are spot welded to the gray bottoming front of motor making it impossible get arms under drum to disengage drive belt or impossible to replace once rear bearing is replaced. This is an older dryer serial # LR2 23729H. I see the video shows the sides are attached with screws (instead of weld} that when removed allow the sides to expand giving more room. Any help for me?
1 Answer Mark, On this, you will need to go in through the front to get to the drive belt, You have to remove the front panel, you will reach your arm in the open area under the drum and get the belt released. Read More...
Mary April 02, 2020 for Model Number LER7628KTI What make the color blue to form on the drum also the dryer will start to squeak.Thank you.
1 Answer Hello Mary, the blue streaks in a light-colored dryer drum interior is a dye transfer from wet blue jeans. It is very common and is not considered a problem as it will not retransfer to light-colored clothes. As far as the squeaking noise the dryer interior would need to accessed and the rear drum rollers, idler pulley and front drum bearing need to be checked for wear. Read More...
Frank November 29, 2019 for Model Number NBXR333EG6WW Good Evening, I have replaced the belt drive, the front drum bearing slides, and the rear drum bearing kit and am still getting noise from the back of the dryer compartment. Any ideas what else this could be, Thanks. Frank
1 Answer Frank, the ventilation may need to be inspected for any debris that may be caught up. The idler pulley WE12X83 will also need to be inspected to ensure that it is able to move freely when the belt is removed. Read More...
Bob November 16, 2019 for Model Number DLB2450BPL WHAT COULD BE CAUSING GREESE TO GET ON MY CLOSES WHEN I DRY THEM
1 Answer Bob, Check the glides at the front of the unit to make sure that they are not damaged as this would be the most likely cause for this issue. Read More...
Gary October 31, 2019 for Model Number DCVH515EF0WW Noticed Jeff responded to a question about whether to put lubricant on the rear bearing shaft or in the mounting area? His answer was yes, a high temp grease, but that was for a different dryer. Is the answer still the same for my model?
1 Answer Gary, while a high-temperature grease can be used and would work, it can also collect any lint or dust that may accumulate in the dryer. This accumulation can cause excessive noises to occur. Read More...
John September 16, 2019 for Model Number DCVH660EH0BB Will this part number we25x205 work on this dryer?
1 Answer John, Unfortunately, the drum shaft and bearing kit WE25M40 will not work for your unit. The correct rear drum bearing kit will be part number WE25M40. Read More...
John June 01, 2019 At 10:11 on your video you show the shaft assembly going on without mention of putting on or showing the large nut provided in the packet so will I have to open this unit up to put the nut on as I did not put it on before?? I do hear and feel a bit of a rumble. Glad the noise is gone. Also, the self tapping screws don't really work. It is a huge issue. GE should have them pre tapped. Thanks
Tama48 April 28, 2019 for Model Number GE-DDE7000SBLWW I ordered your rear bearing kit for my dryer and front bearing glides. The install of both went great and I messed up getting the belt back on the motor and idler pulley. Couldn't figure out why the dryer wouldn't start. Apparently the idler arm has a switch that if that arm isn't on that belt correctly the dryer won't start. Anyway my real issue was the grounding strap. I did install it but there was NO slot on my machine for that littler bent part to go through the machine. At least I couldn't find it. I put it all back together and it runs fine. Is that going to make a difference?
1 Answer Tama48, The "grounding strap" on the rear drum bearing kit serves several safety purposes. Not only does it assist in grounding the heater assembly and components, as well as reducing or eliminating the static charge that can build up in the drum when tumbling certain articles. If your kit doesn't have the slot for the ground strap, straighten the tip, and make sure the mounting screws and retainer is properly secured and tighten the screws. then make sure the heater assembly is properly secured to the cabinet.
