Hello Chris, if you are referring to the drum felt seal, then yes it is a necessary part, if it has come loose, you can reattach it with this high temperature rated adhesive WPY055980.

Frank for Model Number SDE5401AYW

The felt liner is very loose. Do I need to replace filter or can I remove felt? Marie K. for Model Number Sde3606ayw ANSWER Hello Marie, There should be no problem with removing the felt seal as long as the filter fits snugly enough that items cannot get past the filter into the front bulkhead. If items such as baby socks are dried in the unit and they can get past the filter, the filter WP37001142 should be replaced. Does this apply to Model SDE5401AYW ? Frank for Model SDE5401AYW

Donald, Lint build up would certainly be a possible cause of this issue. You will want to open the unit and make sure that all of the inside of the unit is clear of all lint.

Deborah, You could just remove the felt liner off the filter as it is not a needed part.

Hello John, I'm sorry but we cannot look up parts for a model without the model number for which the part is needed. If you could please post a new question including the model number on the units' I.D. tag, we can look the part number up for you. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.
