This heater assembly is an integral part of many dryers. It is typically located within a housing and heats up air as it moves through the blower. It may sit behind the dryer drum and heat the air in that manner. If the air in the dryer never gets hot or it takes extra time to dry a load of laundry, this could be an indication that the heater assembly is damaged or malfunctioning. The heater assembly can be tested, but if damaged, it should be replaced with an OEM part.Make sure the dryer is unplugged from the outlet before starting. Loosen the vent clamp screw to release the vent behind the appliance. Pull out the dryer for easier access to the back. Access the heater assembly in the dryer by disassembling the appliance. Remove the wires from the high-limit thermostat and heater assembly terminals. Remove the heater assembly and replace it with the new component. Make sure to reassemble all other parts before returning power to the appliance to test it.Compatible with GE dryers, the heater assembly is directly sourced from the manufacturer. This part is sold as an individual item. It is a genuine OEM replacement part.

This front panel is the outer decorative trim that restores the appliance's appearance and protects the control area. It gives a clean, finished look while helping keep controls and internal components shielded from spills and damage. What it does:

• Replaces a cracked, dented, or discolored front face to improve appearance
• Protects underlying control assemblies and wiring from spills and debris
• Helps align and secure control components and door/hinge interfaces
• Reduces drafts and gaps at the appliance front for a tighter fit

• One front panel

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off circuit) before starting any work
• Remove any trim screws, clips, or surrounding panels to access the mounting points
• Handle carefully to avoid scratching the visible finish; align tabs and secure with original fasteners

This idler spring provides tension for the dryer belt so the drum turns smoothly and evenly. Replacing a worn spring restores proper belt tracking and reduces slipping or noisy operation. What it does:

• Maintains proper tension on the dryer drive belt so the drum rotates correctly
• Keeps the belt aligned on the idler/tensioner pulley and motor pulley
• Prevents belt slippage that can cause the drum to stop or turn intermittently
• Helps reduce squealing, grinding, or rubbing noises from the drive assembly

• Disconnect power to the dryer (unplug or shut off circuit) before starting work.
• Access usually requires removing the dryer front or top panel—refer to your model's service instructions.
• Inspect the belt and idler pulley for wear and replace if damaged while the unit is open.
• Use care when releasing or installing the spring—it is under tension; wear eye protection and gloves.
