The BLOWER WHEEL is an OEM part for GE electric dryers. It is housed within the blower motor housing and works to push air through the dryer ducting. During cycles, the rotating blower wheel creates crucial airflow that carries heated air through clothes to dry them efficiently.

Causes of a bad blower wheel can include cracked or broken wheel blades from normal wear and tear over time. Accumulations of lint on the wheel can also reduce airflow and efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad blower wheel include: 

• Insufficient or no air being pushed through the dryer ducting
• Abnormally long drying times and wet clothes after cycles  
• Excessive noise coming from the blower motor area
• Safety features possibly tripping due to motor overheating

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models. Maintain optimal airflow by replacing your blower wheel with this genuine OEM component.

Dryers, washers, and washer dryer combos are made with an idler pulley shaft. It works in combination with the rest of the equipment in multiple ways. It switches the direction in which the output shaft is rotating. The idler pulley shaft also works to change gears and maintain the space between shafts. With time, because of excessive force, or as a result of misuse, the idler pulley shaft can wear out, break, or get damaged otherwise. When the part isn't working correctly, it has to be replaced to continue using the machine.The primary indication that there is something wrong with the idler pulley shaft is a machine that's producing excessive noises. Replacement of the idler pulley shaft is a straightforward process. It can be done in a few minutes with a nut driver and screwdrivers. Unplug the appliance before starting the disassembly.This idler pulley shaft is a genuine OEM replacement part. It is sold as an individual unit. It is made of durable metal materials.
