Alignment pin keeps the appliance door hinge aligned so the door closes evenly and seals correctly. Replacing a damaged pin restores proper door fit and helps stop sagging, rubbing, or uneven gaps. What it does:

• Positions and secures the door hinge during normal operation
• Restores correct hinge alignment when pins are worn or bent
• Helps eliminate door sag, misalignment, grinding, or difficulty closing
• Works with the hinge assembly to maintain an even seal and proper door movement

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair; ensure the appliance is stable and cool.
• Support the door or hinge assembly while removing and installing the pin to avoid dropping or misaligning heavy components.
• Use basic hand tools; ensure pin orientation and full engagement in the hinge before testing.
• Keep small parts and fasteners secure during reassembly and test the door several times to ensure proper operation.

This is a 6-20 x 3/8 in. appliance screw used to secure panels and components. It provides a simple replacement fastener to restore proper fit and stability to the affected area. What it does:

• Fastens appliance panels, brackets, or small components where a 6-20 x 3/8 in. screw is specified
• Replaces damaged, stripped, or missing screws that cause loose panels or rattling
• Restores proper alignment and reduces vibration-related noise
• Matches the original thread size and length used in many factory assemblies

• Disconnect power or take appropriate safety precautions when working near electrical components
• If fasteners mount to plastic, consider using gentle, even pressure to prevent cracking

This silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) is a replacement power-control semiconductor that helps regulate current to heating and motor circuits, restoring proper cycling and output in affected appliances. What it does:

• Controls and switches power to heating elements or motors by gating current flow
• Helps the appliance regulate temperature or motor speed when functioning correctly
• A failing SCR can cause no heat, intermittent heating, or erratic motor behavior
• Designed to mount to a flange with a .625-inch tab for electrical connection

• Always disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Handle the SCR by its edges; avoid touching terminals and observe ESD precautions when possible
• Verify proper orientation and secure mounting to the heatsink or chassis per the service manual

The Wire Tie is an OEM part for GE dryers. It is used to secure and organize internal wiring, ensuring that wires remain properly positioned and do not interfere with the operation of the dryer. This part plays an important role in preventing wires from becoming tangled, pinched, or damaged during the dryer’s cycles.

Over time, the wire tie can become worn out, broken, or damaged due to prolonged exposure to heat, vibrations, or wear from normal use. A compromised wire tie can lead to loose or unsecured wiring, which may impact the performance of the dryer or cause electrical issues.

Symptoms of a bad Dryer Wire Tie include:

• Loose or unsecured internal wiring
• Interference with dryer components during operation
• Electrical malfunctions or short circuits
• Wires appearing frayed or damaged due to improper support

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