General Electric Dryer DCCB330EV0AC Won't start or doesn't start

The Dryer Drive Belt is an OEM part for GE dryers that connects the motor to the drum, allowing the drum to rotate during the drying cycle. The belt measures approximately 87 inches long and 0.25 inches wide, with 4 ribs.

Over time, the Dryer Drive Belt can wear out or break, leading to the drum not turning.

Symptoms of a bad Dryer Drive Belt include:

• The drum not spinning or rotating
• A squealing or thumping noise coming from the dryer
• The dryer stopping unexpectedly during a cycle

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

This dryer motor kit powers the drum and blower. Replacing a weak or failed motor restores proper tumbling and airflow so the dryer starts reliably and dries loads more evenly.

• Drives the drum via the belt and turns the blower wheel for airflow
• Helps resolve: dryer hums but won't start, drum won't turn, or stops mid-cycle
• Can reduce loud buzzing/grinding noises from the motor area
• Restores consistent operation when the motor overheats and trips its protector

• Disconnect power; turn off gas supply to gas dryers before servicing
• Remove panels to access the drive system; release belt tension and remove the drum as needed
• The blower wheel threads onto the motor shaft—support it carefully; many GE dryers use a reverse (left-hand) thread
• Transfer wiring and any reusable hardware to the new motor; test before reassembly

The Door Latch is an OEM part for GE dryers. This part ensures the dryer door stays securely closed during operation, activating the safety switch to allow the dryer to operate. The latch mechanism engages with the door strike to lock the door, preventing it from opening while the dryer is running, which is essential for both safety and proper functioning of the appliance. 

Causes for replacement can include normal wear and tear, accidental damage, or a misalignment that prevents the door from securely latching. 

Symptoms of a bad Door Latch include:

• The dryer door doesn't stay closed during cycles.
• Difficulty in starting the dryer due to the door not activating the safety switch.
• Visible wear or damage to the latch mechanism.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Door Strike is an OEM part for GE dryers. This component is crucial for ensuring that the dryer door latches properly when closed. It interacts with the door catch mechanism to secure the door during operation, preventing it from opening unexpectedly, which ensures the dryer operates safely and efficiently.

Symptoms of a failing Door Strike include:

• The dryer door not staying closed during a cycle
• Difficulty in closing the dryer door or getting it to latch properly
• The dryer not starting because the door switch is not engaged
• Visible damage or wear on the door strike

Causes of a bad door strike can include wear and tear from regular use, physical damage from slamming the door or mishandling, and misalignment caused by repeated opening and closing.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Note: If the door catch is also needed, use part number WE1M1011.
