The Lint Filter is an OEM part for LG dryers. It serves a critical function in trapping lint and debris from clothes during the drying process. Located in the door or top of the dryer, depending on the model, this filter ensures efficient airflow and heat distribution by preventing lint from clogging the dryer vent. 

These issues typically arise from normal wear and tear or from not regularly cleaning the filter, which can cause it to become brittle or damaged over time.  

Symptoms of a bad Lint Filter include:

• Reduced drying efficiency, leading to longer drying times
• Excessive lint or debris escaping into the dryer vent, which can pose a fire risk
• Visible wear or damage to the filter, such as tears or holes, which can allow lint to pass through

This OEM LG part can also be used on Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

The Dryer Thermistor is an OEM part for LG dryers, designed to monitor and help regulate the temperature within the dryer by providing feedback to the control board about the temperature inside the drum. This allows the dryer to adjust its heat settings accordingly, preventing overheating and ensuring clothes are dried evenly and safely.

Symptoms of a bad Dryer Thermistor include:

• Clothes not drying properly or taking longer than usual to dry.
• The dryer repeatedly stopping during a cycle.
• Error messages appearing on the dryer's display panel.
• The dryer getting too hot or not heating enough.

Causes of a bad Dryer Thermistor can include a buildup of lint and debris affecting its ability to accurately sense temperature, wear and tear over time, or electrical issues within the dryer's circuitry.

This OEM LG part can also be used on Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

The Drum Motor Assembly is an OEM part for LG dryers. It serves as the powerhouse that drives the drum, enabling it to tumble clothes during the drying cycle. This essential component ensures your dryer operates smoothly, providing the necessary torque for consistent and efficient drying performance.

Causes of failure might include wear and tear from prolonged use, overload from trying to dry heavy loads, electrical issues like short circuits, or physical damage to the motor components. 

Symptoms of a bad Drum Motor Assembly include:

• The dryer drum fails to turn, even though the dryer powers on.
• Unusual noises, such as humming or buzzing, indicating the motor is struggling.
• The dryer stops unexpectedly during cycles or won't start at all.
• Decreased drying efficiency or clothes taking longer to dry due to inconsistent drum speed.

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.

The Dryer Drum Baffle is an OEM part for LG dryers. This baffle is attached to the inside of the dryer drum and is designed to help lift and tumble clothes during the drying cycle. 

Causes of a bad dryer drum baffle can include wear and tear from regular use, physical damage from heavy or sharp objects, or becoming loose due to vibration over time. 

Symptoms of a bad dryer drum baffle include:

• Thumping or banging noises during the drying cycle
• Clothes not tumbling properly, leading to uneven drying
• Loose or rattling baffle inside the drum
• Visible damage or breakage on the baffle

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

The Tub Assembly is an OEM replacement part for LG clothes dryers. As the central component housing both the inner and outer drums, the tub assembly is essential for safely drying wet laundry loads. It rotates the drums to circulate air and remove moisture from clothes during cycles. 

Causes of a bad tub assembly dryer can include cracks, leaks, or damage to the drum structure from excessive use or unbalanced loads over time. Wear and tear on rotating or suspension components that impair rotation. 

Symptoms of an issue with the tub assembly dryer are:

• Inefficient or slow drying times 
• Abnormal noises or vibrations during cycles
• Restricted or lack of drum rotation
• Cracks, leaks, or physical damage visible on drums

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore brand models.

This dryer duct assembly channels air from the drum to the blower and exhaust. Replacing a cracked or warped housing restores proper airflow, helps prevent lint bypass, and supports consistent drying performance.

• Directs and seals airflow between the drum and blower housing
• Helps maintain drying efficiency by minimizing leaks and lint bypass
• Damage or warping can lead to long dry times and reduced airflow
• Signs of failure include visible cracks, melted spots, or air/lint leakage around the duct area

• Disconnect power; for gas models, turn off the gas supply
• Access from the front by removing the top and front panel
• Note fastener locations and any attached brackets/harnesses, then transfer them to the new assembly
• Vacuum lint from internal ducting and verify seals before test run

Replacement interior lamp assembly that restores illumination inside your refrigerator so you can see food and shelves clearly. Replaces worn or damaged light units to improve visibility and normal operation. What it does:
