This exhaust blower gasket seals the joint between the dryer's blower outlet and exhaust duct. It helps maintain proper airflow and contain lint and heat, supporting efficient drying and preventing leaks into the cabinet or laundry area. What it does:

• Seals the blower-to-exhaust connection to prevent air and lint leaks
• Helps maintain designed airflow through the drum and vent system
• Can reduce warm air or lint escaping inside the cabinet

• 1 gasket

• Disconnect power; for gas dryers, shut off gas and disconnect the supply. Allow the dryer to cool.
• Access the blower housing/exhaust duct; remove panels as needed.
• Remove the old gasket and any residue; clean mating surfaces and lint before installing.
• Seat the new gasket evenly and reassemble; avoid overtightening fasteners and ensure the home vent is clear.

This blower housing assembly directs airflow from the dryer motor to the drum and exhaust, restoring proper venting and drying performance. It replaces a damaged or cracked housing to help the dryer move air efficiently. What it does:

• Channels airflow from the motor to the lint filter and exhaust duct
• Supports the blower wheel and maintains correct blower clearance
• Helps prevent air leaks that can cause poor drying or overheating
• Commonly replaced when the housing is cracked, warped, or excessively worn

• One blower housing assembly as shown

• Disconnect power before beginning any repair; ensure the dryer is unplugged or its breaker is off
• Removal may require access panels and disconnection of the blower wheel and motor mounting hardware
• Inspect and clean nearby lint and venting while the dryer is disassembled

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

This is a genuine GE replacement screw used to secure appliance panels and components, restoring proper fit and reducing vibration or rattling. A simple fastener that helps keep assemblies aligned and functioning safely. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, and small components in place
• Prevents noise from loose parts and maintains structural alignment
• Restores proper fastening after repairs or wear
• Matches OEM fit for reliable replacement

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing internal parts
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head
• Thread carefully and tighten until snug; do not overtighten to prevent damage
• Replace any damaged or missing fasteners with the same OEM part for best results

This complete dryer drum assembly replaces the rotating tub that holds and tumbles clothes, restoring proper drum movement and drying performance. Fits compatible GE/TAPPAN dryers and brings back secure, balanced load tumbling. What it does:

• Replaces the dryer's spinning drum so clothes tumble freely during cycles
• Restores even airflow and contact with the heating element for consistent drying
• Stops squeaks, scraping, or grinding caused by a damaged or warped drum
• Helps eliminate clothes catching or rubbing on drum edges that can cause wear

• One complete dryer drum assembly

• Disconnect power before servicing; this part requires panel and/or front removal
• Use basic hand tools; lifting the drum may require two people to avoid strain
• Inspect glide rings, rollers, seals, and belt while replacing the drum and replace as needed

This trap duct assembly directs exhaust and lint from the dryer drum to the lint trap, keeping airflow efficient and helping reduce lint buildup. It replaces a damaged or cracked duct to restore proper venting and dryer performance. What it does:

• Channels lint and exhaust from the drum to the lint trap so the dryer vents correctly
• Helps maintain consistent airflow for efficient drying cycles
• Prevents airflow leaks caused by cracked, loose, or broken ductwork
• Can reduce excess lint accumulating inside the cabinet or around the lint trap area

• One trap duct assembly as shown

• Designed for direct replacement; fit with your model before installing
• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repairs
• Handle carefully to avoid bending or cracking the duct; use basic hand tools for removal/installation
• If you find additional damage (worn seals or adjoining parts), replace those components to ensure a proper seal

A replacement silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) that restores electronic power switching in the appliance's control circuitry. This SCR provides reliable on/off switching for motors or heating circuits when the original SCR has failed. What it does:

• Acts as an electronic switch to control power delivery to heating elements or motors
• Commonly fails when the appliance has no heat, intermittent operation, or won't run consistently
• Replaces a burned, shorted, or open SCR to restore normal control-board switching behavior
• Helps stop arcing or erratic performance when the original semiconductor has degraded

• For safety, disconnect power before accessing control electronics or replacing the SCR
• Handle the SCR and circuit board carefully to avoid ESD damage; use proper grounding if available
• Verify correct orientation and secure mounting; ensure all wiring and connectors are seated properly

This orange jumper harness routes signals and power between wiring harness sections to restore proper electrical continuity. It's a direct-fit replacement that helps clear connection faults and re-establish reliable component communication. What it does:

• Provides a clean, color-coded connection between harness points to maintain circuit continuity
• Replaces damaged or brittle wiring that can cause intermittent operation or loss of function
• Prevents open circuits and improves connector seating for reliable appliance performance
• Used where a short harness run or jumper is required to bridge terminals

• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before beginning work
• Match wire colors and connector shapes to the original; ensure connectors are fully seated
• Inspect surrounding wiring and connectors for heat or damage and replace if needed

Includes 12 screws.

This genuine replacement wire harness routes power and signals between a range of appliance's control and electrical components to restore reliable connections and proper operation. What it does:

• Transfers power and control signals between controls, switches, and motors or sensors
• Replaces damaged or frayed wiring that causes intermittent operation or component failure
• Helps resolve symptoms such as no power to a circuit, intermittent function, or unresponsive controls
• Maintains factory routing and connector fit for a secure, vibration-resistant connection

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before starting any repair
• Handle connectors gently; match connector shapes and pin counts before installing
• Route and secure the harness using existing clips or ties to avoid heat or moving-part contact
