• Can reduce running time and energy use when the original gasket is torn, warped, or no longer seals.
• Common symptoms of a failing gasket: visible gaps, condensation or frost at the door, uneven temperatures, or increased energy use.

• Disconnect power to the appliance and remove food from affected areas before beginning work.
• Inspect the door frame for dirt or debris and clean mating surfaces before installing the new gasket.
• Align the gasket to the door and seat it fully—follow OEM alignment steps for your model; if the gasket is stiff, warm it slightly per OEM guidance to help fit.

• Shut off the refrigerator's water supply and unplug the appliance before beginning
• Handle tubing fittings carefully; use proper tools to avoid damage or overtightening
• Inspect connection points and replace seals or clips if worn; test for leaks after reinstalling

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 Door Switch Assembly is an OEM part for LG dryers. It ensures the dryer operates only when the door is securely closed, acting as a safety feature to prevent the dryer from running while the door is open.

Causes of a bad door switch assembly can include regular wear and tear from frequent use, electrical issues such as shorts or faulty connections, or physical damage from forceful door closures or impacts.

Symptoms of a bad door switch assembly include:

• The dryer not starting
• The dryer stopping mid-cycle
• The drum light not turning on or off correctly
• The dryer continuing to run with the door open

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

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 Gas Burner Valve Assembly is an OEM replacement part for LG gas dryers. It is a component located beneath the gas burner that controls the flow of fuel to ignite and maintain the flame. The valve assembly receives ignition and temperature signals from the dryer's control system to precisely regulate gas levels throughout drying cycles. This gas dryer burner valve includes two solenoid coils.

Causes of a faulty gas valve may involve wear over extended operation, mineral buildup on valve seats, or mechanical issues restricting gas flow at desired levels.

Symptoms of a bad gas burner valve assembly consist of:

• Erratic or inconsistent burner ignition between cycles
• Inability to achieve high heat settings when needed
• Burners not maintaining steady flame patterns
• Potential gas leaks detected around valves or tubing

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

This washer tub assembly is the stationary outer tub that surrounds the spin basket and contains the wash water. Replacing a cracked or damaged tub helps stop leaks and restores proper clearance for smooth, quiet washing and spinning.

• Creates a watertight chamber around the basket to hold wash and rinse water
• Maintains proper basket clearance; damage can cause rubbing or scraping sounds
• Provides connection points for hoses and water-level components
• Common signs it may be needed: leaks from the tub area, visible cracks or warping, persistent out-of-balance/spin errors, or internal scraping/grinding noises

• Disconnect power and water; shut off supplies and safely drain remaining water
• This is a major repair—allow time and consider a second person to help lift/support the tub
• Transfer model-specific parts from the original tub to the new tub as needed; reinstall all clamps, bolts, and sensors securely
• After reassembly, level the washer, and run a test cycle to check for leaks

This tub assembly is the main inner drum that holds clothes and spins during the wash and spin cycles, restoring a smooth, balanced wash performance when the original drum is damaged. Designed to replace a worn, cracked, or dented drum to help reduce noise and prevent fabric damage. What it does:

• Holds laundry during wash and spin cycles and provides the rotating surface for tumbling
• Replaces cracked, dented, or bent drums that cause scraping, rubbing, or visible damage to clothes
• Helps stop unusual noises or vibrations caused by a warped or damaged drum
• Restores proper drum alignment so the washer can drain and spin efficiently

• Disconnect power and water supply before beginning service
• Drain remaining water and remove front or top panel before accessing the drum
• Drum replacement typically requires removal of the wash plate, pulley, and possibly the tub seal—have basic hand tools and a service manual or diagram on hand
