Mitch February 27, 2014 for Model Number GE Part Number WE4M519 I have GE GBXR463GD2WW dryer (made in Canada). The rotary start switch is different. There are two separate prongs at terminal #2. One has red wire from below (main motor). The other has a separate red wire from the buzzer. Terminal #3 has a brown wire from the timer. Terminal #4 is empty. Is this the correct part and if so how do I wire it?
1 Answer Hello Mitch, I'm sorry but we have no information on Canadian built units. We do not have access to this information. You will need to contact GE international for information on this unit. Read More...
Christine January 23, 2014 for Model Number GE dbxr453et5ww When I turn the switch to start the dryer it makes a humming noise, but does not start. The humming stops when you let go of the switch. Does it just need a new rotary start switch or a new motor? Thanks!
1 Answer Christine, check to make sure the belt is not broke and the tub isn't locked. If that is O.K you'll need to replace the motor WE17X10010. Thanks! Read More...
Robert January 06, 2014 for Model Number DBXR463ED2WW The Dryer start switch is bad and I was looking at the part no. AP4980910. When I put in the model number that is what part no. it gave me, but looking at the picture and repair video it shows 3 wires on the switch and my switch has 4 wires going into it. Is this the right switch for the model number? The OE number was a Solteam 212D1094P004.
1 Answer Hello Robert! The rotary start switch part number WE4M519 is the correct replacement switch listed for your model DBXR463ED2WW.

Ava M. January 02, 2014 for Model Number Ge Dryer Model DHDSR46EG1WW I ordered a new start switch. It has 3 contacts and my old switch has 4. Can I just leave the signal wire disconnected from the start switch or do I need to order another part? I cannot seem to find a switch for my model with 4 contacts.
1 Answer Hello Ava, The wiring diagram for this model shows 3 terminals only. They are labeled 2, 3, and 4. The double red wire goes to the number 2 terminal, the brown wire from the high limit thermostat goes to the number 4 terminal, and the brown wire from the idler spring switch goes to the number 3 terminal.

Beverly S December 12, 2013 for Model Number DWXR463667WW My gas dryer is not same model as shown in demo. I have a separate button that starts the dryer. The knob does not work and when I took it off I tried to turn it with pliers but won't turn. I think it is the electrical switch. Would the switch in your demo fit my model?
