Being a complete DIY I hate to call some unknown person into my home knowing that just to get them there will cost me more than I will spend for parts that I don't need.After all, they are trying to make a living and by selling me parts that I don't need will increase their profits. I've dealt with APP before and was impressed by their site because I could find both mechanical and electrical drawings for almost everything I have. I looked up my dryer, decided what was probably the problem,... Read more
The Lint Filter is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. This component is crucial for trapping lint and debris that come off clothes during the drying process.

The Lint Filter is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire, Electrolux, Gibson, and Kenmore dryers.
Had to purchase a new filter as the felt does not feed back into the ridge in the filter. It seems to me that the felt should not pull out so easily. My dryer isn't even a year old so I think this is a design failure. But the new filter works great and hopefully we won't have this problem again. Thank you for your prompt service! Read more

Symptoms of a bad high temperature adhesive include:
I'm new to how a dryer works, so I just started taking it apart to see what exactly was causing it. The video examples on the APP website were all amazing. It gave me a good idea of what I was getting into and showed me the common repair issues. The dryer being 12 years old, I was on the fence about repairing or replacing. However, once I got a list of parts I might need and getting the confidence by watching the videos, I said "what have I got to lose." The cause of the scraping and loud... Read more
The Idler Arm Assembly is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire clothes dryers. It is a pulley assembly that helps to guide the dryer belt and keep it aligned.

I ordered a new motor. Read more
The Limiter is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire dryers. Also called a high-limit thermostat, it prevents the dryer from overheating in the event of an obstruction or blockage. The limiter monitors air temperature and airflow inside the dryer drum.
Symptoms of a bad limiter include:
Causes of a bad limiter can be normal wear and tear over time, failure of internal components, or exposure to overheating conditions from blockages or items not suitable for machine drying.
I actually found a post from another brave soul who was willing to try to fix his, and had stated when he put the new limiter switch in, it fixed the problem. Since the whole back of the dryer needs to come off to get to the burner, and the limiter switch is inexpensive it seemed like common sense to take this approach first. After all, you don't put a new engine in your car if all it needs is a new battery! I also found posts that an overheating event could fry the main control board, and... Read more
The Thermostat is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire dryers. It plays a crucial role in monitoring and regulating the temperature inside the tumbler. The thermostat works closely with the heating element and controls to accurately sense temperature fluctuations and modulate heating levels accordingly. Symptoms of a bad thermostat include:
Causes can be normal wear over extreme heating and cooling cycles. Environmental contaminants may also impact sensor performance. This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.
My Electrolux Frigidaire Gas Dryer stopped working and I got an error code E66 that the thermal limiter blew from over heating. The E66 code stops displaying after the initial code and you will then get a door open message. I replaced the thermal limiter and the thermostat just to be sure which part at the problem. The job is hard because you have to take apart the entire dryer and remove the drum. Would be a tough project to complete on your own. Read more
The Ignitor is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. This part ignites the gas burner that generates the heat necessary for drying clothes. Note: Part has been redesigned and is now a flat style ignitor instead of round ignitor.

Symptoms of a bad Ignitor include:
This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.
I looked on Appliance Parts Pros. com and read the problems that others had and replacing the ignitor made sense so I ordered one. It came by UPS within 3 days. I watched the video on how to replace it. Everything went easily, except the screw that held the ignitor in place was a philups head screwdriver and I couldn't get a screwdriver into the small space I had to work in so I went to Harbor Freight Tools and bought an inexpensive 90 degree rachet screwdriver for $2.99 and it worked great....

This factory 8-18 screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and components. Replace missing or stripped hardware to restore a tight, rattle-free assembly and dependable operation.
It was easy to find the part on appliance parts pros. Once I found it I studied the diagram and determined that there were 3 screws in the drum that needed to be removed. I disconnected power and then removed 3 interior screws. Once I did that I removed the back cover and removed the single screw on the bottom side of the air duct that held it in place connected to the heat tube. I then reversed disassembly. I want to tell you this is a 2 person job. In order to assemble it you need to... Read more

I determined that it was a problem that occurred during the defrost cycle by resetting the GFCI outlet and forwarding the defrost timer until the defroster came on. Once the defrosting began, the GFCI outlet would reliably trip. I took apart the shielding inside of the freezer and tested the defrosting without the heating element or the thermostat connected. Since that looked good, I tested for proper functionality of the thermostat by removing it, placing it in a working freezer, and checking... Read more
