This motor support is the stamped metal bracket that secures the dryer motor and blower assembly, keeping components aligned for smooth operation. It restores proper motor mounting and reduces noise from loose or misaligned parts. What it does:

• Holds the dryer motor and blower housing in the correct position to prevent wobble or misalignment
• Helps maintain proper blower alignment for effective air movement
• Supports safe, reliable motor operation when the original bracket is bent, cracked, or worn

• Disconnect power (unplug electric or shut off gas and breaker) before beginning repair
• Access requires opening the dryer cabinet and removing the drum and/or front panel on many models
• Inspect related components (motor mounts, blower wheel, idler, belt) and replace if damaged

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 SCR 8-18 AB 1/2 is a replacement silicon controlled rectifier that restores proper power control to the appliance's control circuitry, helping the unit switch and regulate current reliably. What it does:

• Controls current flow in the appliance's power/control circuit for timed or regulated output
• Replaces a failed or intermittent SCR to stop erratic cycling, no-power, or control malfunctions
• Commonly used where electronic switching or phase control is required
• Helps restore stable operation when heating or motor circuits fail to receive proper control signals

• One SCR 8-18 AB 1/2 replacement component

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing electrical components
• Observe ESD precautions and handle the SCR by its body; avoid touching leads
• Verify wiring and mounting orientation match the original part before final assembly

The Kit Felt and Instruction is an OEM part for GE dryers. This kit includes felt seals and instructions necessary for installation. The felt seals help create a barrier between the drum and the front panel, retaining heat inside the dryer and ensuring efficient drying. They also reduce friction and wear on the drum and front panel.

Causes of a bad felt seal can include regular wear and tear, high heat exposure, or damage from foreign objects inside the dryer. A compromised felt seal can lead to inefficient drying and potential damage to the dryer components.

Symptoms of a bad felt seal include:

• Clothes taking longer to dry
• Excessive lint buildup inside the dryer
• Unusual noises during the drying cycle
• Visible damage or gaps in the felt seal

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

This dryer gasket seals a duct connection inside the appliance to keep airflow on the intended path and contain heat and lint. Replacing a worn gasket helps restore drying performance and reduces lint and air leaks.

• Seals the joint between the duct and mating surface to maintain proper airflow
• Helps keep heat and lint inside the air path and out of the cabinet
• Can reduce air-leak noises and hot spots around the cabinet

• Disconnect power; turn off gas supply for gas dryers
• Access the duct connection (front panel/top removal varies by model)
• Remove the old gasket and clean mating surfaces thoroughly
• Install the new gasket; if your model uses adhesive, apply a thin, even coat of high-temp adhesive per product directions before reassembly

The Gasket Seal is an OEM component specifically designed for GE dryers. It is a crucial sealing component that lines the perimeter of the dryer door. The gasket seal helps create an effective air barrier when the door is properly closed and secured.  

Causes of a bad gasket seal can include wear and tear resulting in cracks along the surface, deformities preventing flush contact with the door border, or material deterioration compromising its sealing abilities.

Symptoms of a bad gasket seal include:

• Excessively long drying cycles as air escapes around the compromised seal    
• Visible lint or debris collections where the gasket meets the door framing
• Noticeable drafts or air gaps discernible across the door perimeter

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

This Nut-Strip Door Guide secures the door guide/strip to the appliance, helping keep the door aligned and operating smoothly. Replace a worn or missing nut to restore proper fit and prevent the guide from loosening. What it does

• Fastens the door guide/strip to the appliance frame or door
• Keeps the door guide stable to maintain proper door alignment
• Helps prevent the guide or trim strip from shifting or falling off
• Commonly replaced when the guide is loose, missing, or stripped

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
• Use appropriate hand tools (screwdriver/socket) and avoid over-tightening to prevent damage.
• Inspect the door guide/strip and surrounding fasteners; replace any damaged parts for proper fit.

This motor strap secures the appliance motor to the cabinet, keeping the motor stable during operation to reduce vibration and noise. Use this replacement to restore proper motor positioning and support in compatible models. What it does:

• Holds the motor firmly in place to prevent movement or shifting during use
• Helps reduce vibration and associated noise caused by a loose motor
• Maintains correct motor alignment so belts and linkages run smoothly
• Commonly used when a worn or broken strap allows motor sag or misalignment

• One motor mounting/retaining strap

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work
• Inspect mounting points and fasteners; replace any damaged hardware as needed
• Secure strap to the motor and cabinet using the original mounting holes and recommended hardware
