This replacement part is a high-limit thermostat, and it is intended for use in different types of appliances. This is a genuine replacement part made by General Electric. This high-limit thermostat is typically found in dryers and controls the heat inside the drying tub. This is especially important as different dryer settings require different amounts of heat. If the high limit thermostat works properly, the temperature inside the tub should reach the correct amount during each drying cycle with no issues. A new high-limit thermostat might be needed if the user notices that the dryer is unable to reach the appropriate level of heat for a certain drying cycle. This is also true if the dryer is becoming too hot when the heat is supposed to be set to low. Make sure the dryer is cooled down prior to replacing this part as the areas in the back of the dryer can become very hot during use. Be sure to reference the specific user manual for more instructions on how to replace the thermostat. This thermostat is sold individually and is a genuine OEM part. The thermostat is sourced directly from the manufacturer.

If the mounting clip is burnt order WE1X941.

This gas valve regulates and safely delivers fuel to your dryer's burner. When operating correctly, it opens for ignition and closes when heat is satisfied, providing consistent, reliable heating for effective drying.

• Opens to allow gas into the burner when the ignition system calls for heat
• Closes to stop gas flow during cycling or if ignition fails
• Possible symptoms: dryer runs but no heat; igniter glows yet no flame; intermittent heat or long dry times
• Helps restore proper burner ignition and stable flame

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Work in a well-ventilated area; check all connections for leaks with a non-corrosive leak-detection solution after installation
• Transfer any brackets, fittings, or orifices from the original valve as required; secure connections
• Confirm gas type (natural/LP) and regulator/orifice settings per the service manual before restoring service

This idler arm, also called a belt tensioner arm, supports the idler pulley that keeps the dryer's drive belt tight so the drum rotates smoothly. Replacing a worn arm helps eliminate noise and belt tracking issues.

• Maintains proper belt tension by positioning the idler pulley against the drive belt
• Helps prevent belt slippage, squealing, and premature belt wear
• Supports smooth, consistent drum rotation during cycles
• Typical failure symptoms include squeaking/chirping, burning rubber smell, belt coming off, or the drum not turning

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, also shut off the gas supply
• Access the idler assembly by removing the front or lower access panel
• Release belt tension and note the belt routing; reinstall pulley and spring as removed, then re-tension the belt
• Manually rotate the drum to verify belt tracking before reassembly and testing

This is a small screw, and it is made for dryers, washers, and washer dryer combos. This is a genuine replacement part made by General Electric. Screws are common in these appliances and can cause many difficulties if they become loose, damaged, or missing.A new screw might be needed if there are areas in the appliance that seem off balance or not level. Another way to tell if a new screw is needed is if there are parts in the appliance that are loose or falling off. This is common over many years of normal use as the shaking of washers and dryers can eventually lead to loose screws. Be sure the washer or dryer is completely off before attempting to replace any screws.This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually and is compatible with washers, dryers, and washer dryer combos made by General Electric.

• Works with the igniter, flame sensor, and gas valve to produce heat
• Typical failure symptoms: no heat or intermittent heat, long dry times, burner lights then goes out, unstable/yellow flame
• Physical issues can include rust, warping, or blocked burner ports

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply; allow the dryer to cool completely
• Note position of the igniter and flame sensor relative to the burner port; realign during reassembly
• Transfer any reusable fittings from the original burner as needed and verify orifice/fuel type match your installation
• After reconnecting gas, perform a leak check with a non-corrosive soapy water solution before restoring power
