This drum slide bearing supports the front edge of the dryer drum with a low-friction surface so it turns smoothly. Replacing worn slides can reduce squeaks or scraping and help prevent damage to the drum and front bearing.

• Provides a low-friction contact point for the front of the drum to rotate smoothly
• Reduces rubbing and wear between the drum rim and front bearing assembly
• Worn slides can cause squealing/scraping noises, rough drum rotation, or marks/snags on clothing near the drum opening
• Common maintenance item; uneven or excessive wear may affect tumbling performance

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, also shut off gas supply
• Access by removing top and front panel per service instructions; support the drum during service
• Replace slides in matching positions/orientation; replacing all slides together helps ensure even support
• Spin the drum by hand before reassembly to ensure smooth, quiet rotation

This is a replacement knob and clip kit for the control shaft. It restores a secure, easy-to-turn control when the original knob is cracked, loose, or missing, helping you select cycles reliably.

• Turns the control shaft and secures it to the timer or selector
• Helps when the knob is cracked, stripped, wobbly, or falls off
• Can resolve issues selecting or starting cycles due to a loose/missing knob
• Direct-fit replacement designed for compatible models

• Disconnect power before service
• Pull the old knob straight off; remove any remaining clip from the shaft
• Align the new knob and press onto the shaft; install the clip as directed
• Do not force if resistance is high—verify shaft and clip alignment

This bearing supports the washer's inner tub shaft so the drum spins smoothly and quietly. Replacing a worn bearing restores proper drum alignment and reduces grinding, wobble, and loud rumbling during spin cycles. What it does

• Supports the inner tub/drum shaft for smooth rotation
• Keeps the drum properly aligned to prevent wobble and vibration
• Reduces grinding, squealing, and other spin-cycle noises caused by worn bearing surfaces
• Helps protect adjacent parts from premature wear by maintaining correct rotation

• One bearing

• Disconnect power and water before beginning repair; drain tub if applicable
• Replacement typically requires partial disassembly of the washer cabinet and removal of the drum/tub
• Use proper tools to avoid damaging the shaft or bearing housing; press-fit bearings often require a bearing puller/press
• Inspect adjacent seals and shaft for wear; replace as needed

This drum assembly replaces the rotating tub that holds and tumbles clothes inside the dryer, restoring smooth, balanced operation and helping garments dry evenly. Fits dryers designed for this OEM drum part number. What it does

• Replaces the dryer drum that rotates to tumble clothes for even drying.
• Restores a smooth, balanced drum surface to reduce rubbing, noise, and fabric wear.
• Works with the dryer's drive and support components to maintain proper rotation.
• Can correct symptoms like loud or uneven tumbling and clothes not tumbling properly.

• Service experience recommended; drum replacement often requires disassembly of the dryer cabinet.
• Disconnect power (and gas supply for gas dryers) before beginning any repair.
• Keep fasteners and hardware organized during disassembly; verify alignment of support components on reassembly.
• Inspect rollers, glides, seals, and belt while the cabinet is open and replace as needed.

This bracket belt switch assembly secures the dryer belt switch and helps stop the motor if the belt slips or breaks, protecting the dryer from damage and preventing unsafe operation. It's a direct-fit replacement for the original mounting assembly. What it does

• Holds the belt switch in the correct position so it can sense belt tension.
• Opens the circuit when the belt is loose or broken to stop motor operation.
• Can resolve symptoms like a dryer that stops mid-cycle, fails to start, or runs but won't tumble.
• Restores the original mounting and switch alignment for reliable belt sensing.

• One bracket belt switch assembly

• Disconnect power before beginning—this part is used on electric and gas dryers.
• Basic hand tools (screwdriver/socket) are typically required; keep track of mounting hardware.
• Inspect the belt and pulleys while replacing the bracket; replace any worn parts.

This ground screw secures the appliance chassis ground connection to the cabinet, restoring a reliable earth path for safe operation and reducing risk of electrical faults. Simple replacement keeps electrical components properly grounded. What it does

• Secures the ground wire or grounding strap to the appliance chassis to maintain a safe earth connection.
• Restores proper grounding when the original screw is missing, loose, or corroded.
• Helps prevent intermittent power/grounding issues and reduces risk of electrical arcing at the chassis connection.
• Works wherever a dedicated grounding point is required on the cabinet or frame.

• Single ground screw

• Always disconnect power (unplug or switch off circuit breaker) before servicing electrical connections.
• Verify chassis is de-energized and wear appropriate PPE when working on electrical parts.
• Use the correct driver bit and size to avoid stripping the screw; tighten securely but avoid over-torquing.
• Replace corroded grounding hardware and ensure the ground wire/strap has clean metal-to-metal contact.

This motor and pulley assembly drives the dryer drum so clothes tumble and dry. It replaces a worn or failed drive motor and integrated pulley to restore normal drum rotation and drying performance. What it does

• Turns the dryer drum by driving the drive belt and maintaining proper drum rotation
• Replaces a noisy, weak, or seized drive motor that causes squealing or no-tumble symptoms
• Restores consistent tumbling when the motor fails to start or cuts out during cycles
• Works with the existing belt and mounting hardware when those components are undamaged

• One motor and pulley assembly (single unit)

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before beginning service
• Requires basic hand tools and access to the dryer cabinet; follow OEM service manual for disassembly
• Verify belt condition and install routing before mounting the motor; replace belt if worn

This shield control is an electrical shield and control assembly that protects and secures the appliance's control electronics while helping ensure reliable operation. It replaces a worn or damaged shield to restore proper protection and alignment of the control components. What it does:

• Covers and shields control circuitry and wiring from debris, moisture, and physical contact
• Secures control components in the correct position to prevent loose connections
• Helps reduce risk of shorting or intermittent electrical faults caused by exposed electronics
• Common symptom: visible damage, cracked or warped shield, or control connections that appear loose

• One shield control assembly

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing controls to avoid shock or injury
• Handle the control area carefully and avoid touching circuit boards or connector pins
• Inspect connectors and wiring for damage; replace or reseat connectors as needed for proper fit

The Drive Belt is an OEM replacement part for GE dryers. It wraps around the drum, idler pulley, and motor pulley, playing a crucial role in rotating the drum and tumbling clothes during a drying cycle. This ensures that air circulates evenly, resulting in uniform drying.

Symptoms of a bad Drive Belt include:

• The drum not turning, but the motor still running
• A squealing or thumping noise during operation
• Clothes taking longer to dry
• Visible wear or fraying of the belt upon inspection

Causes for a malfunctioning Drive Belt can include regular wear and tear from continuous use, overloading the dryer with heavy or unbalanced loads, or the belt slipping from its designated path on the pulleys.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
