The Bearing is an OEM part for Bosch dryers. It is a component located within the drum assembly that works to smoothly rotate the drying tumbler during the cycle.                                                         

Symptoms of a bad bearing include:                                                        

• Loud grinding or scraping noises coming from the dryer drum area                                                        
• The dryer drum fails to rotate or gets stuck during the operation                                                
• Vibrations felt in the dryer cabinet or presenting during the operation

Over time, the constant rotation of the dryer drum can cause wear and tear on the bearings. Accidental damage during maintenance or cleaning is also possible. If any of the above issues occur, it may be time to replace this bearing.                                                        

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore models.
 

Thermister

The Temperature regulator is an OEM replacement part for Bosch dryers. It is a temperature-sensitive resistor located inside the dryer cabinet that monitors air temperatures throughout drying cycles. The thermistor provides continuous feedback to the control board.

Causes of a faulty thermistor tend to involve gradual sensor drift or physical damage due to extensive exposure to moisture fluctuations and mechanical vibrations inside the drum. Mineral scale buildup could also interfere with resistance readings over time.

Symptoms comprise:

• Inability for the temperature regulator to accurately detect sleeve air temperature
• Fluctuating or inconsistent drying temperatures between loads
• Thermal runaway triggering high-limit cut-offs or error codes
• Prolonged drying times stemming from control faults

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and some Kenmore models.

The Dryer Lint Filter is an OEM component specifically designed for Bosch dryers. Located inside the dryer door, it prevents lint and other debris from escaping into the surrounding area. 

Symptoms of a bad dryer lint filter include:

• Reduced airflow and inefficient drying times  
• Lint accumulation inside the dryer drum and ductwork
• Excess lint in the surrounding area and on clothes 

Causes of a bad lint filter can include normal wear and tear over time, or damage such as cracks or tears that compromise filtration. Failure to clean after each use also contributes to eventual clogging.

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore models.

The Foot is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch dryers. It securely elevates the appliance above the floor for ventilation purposes. Rigid plastic construction supports weight distribution evenly during cycles.

Causes of a bad foot can involve normal wear from long-term appliance positioning. Exposure to moisture or impacts posing cracking and weakening risks over time necessitate replacement.

Causes of a bad foot include:

• Dryer is unstable and rocks or sways more than usual
• Scratches or damage to flooring surfaces it contacts
• Uneven drying performance from improper elevation

Symptoms of a bad foot include collapsed or unstable base structure inhibiting dependable operation. Timely replacement ensures correct height positioning.

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dryers. Replace to properly elevate your unit and maximize airflow circulation.
 

The Drive Belt is an OEM part for Bosch dryers. It works to transfer power from the dryer motor to the drum, helping rotate and tumble clothes during the drying cycle.

Causes of a bad drive belt usually come down to regular use over several years. Infrequent belt replacement intervals can lead to premature failure.

Symptoms of a bad drive belt can include:

• The dryer not starting or not completing full cycles
• Loud squealing or slipping noises coming from the dryer
• Visible cracking, fraying, or looseness of the belt

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore models.

The Belt Drive is an OEM part for Bosch dryers. It provides power transmission from the motor to the drum through its durable, stretch-resistant belt. Precise alignment of the belt is crucial for smooth, efficient operation.

Symptoms of a bad belt drive include slipping, squealing noises, or vibrations during use. The belt may show signs of cracking, stretching, or looseness. 

Causes can be normal wear over many cycles of use, overloading the dryer with too many wet items, or accidentally impacting or bending internal components.

Causes of a bad belt drive include:

• Misalignment placing undue stress on the belt or pulleys
• Stretching, cracking, or loosening of the belt over time
• Damage to the belt from snags or debris caught in the mechanism

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with some Kenmore, Maytag, and Whirpool dryers. Replace yours today for quiet, dependable performance.
 

The Wheel is an OEM part for Bosch clothes dryers. It is an essential component that works with the drum to tumble clothes, facilitating effective drying action during cycles.

Wheels can cause shorts and come loose over time from heavy drum usage, leading to:

• Vibrating, shaking noises 
• Difficulty spinning the dryer drum by hand
• Stretching or pilling of clothes  
• Unerwven drying performance

Causes of a faulty wheel tend to be wear and tear over time from carrying heavy loads inside a spinning drum. Foreign objects inside the drum can also potentially cause damage.

It is also compatible with some Thermador, Gaggenau, and Kenmore dryer models.

The Limiter-Temperature is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch vented dryers requiring controlled heat. As a safety device, it restricts air exiting the exhaust to prevent accidental ignition of accumulated lint.

Precisely calibrated mechanothermal links automatically trip circuit breakers upon exceeding preset levels. Isolated housings shield reactive alloys from moisture while enabling thermodynamics to naturally trigger protective functions. 

Causes requiring replacement involve over-heating from sustained over-drying preventing auto-stops. Physical damage exposing reactive cores could also impair intended response times.

Symptoms signaling the need for a new temperature limiter include:

• Inability to sense rising exhaust temperatures activating cutoffs
• Constantly energized heating elements lacking temperature regulation  
• Excessively long or uncontrolled dry cycles posing combustion risks

This OEM Bosch replacement component is also compatible with some Gaggenau, Thermador, and select Kenmore dryers employing sensitive temperature cutoffs. Correct installation restores critical overheat protection circuits.
 

The Frame is an OEM part for Bosch dryers. This inner frame is responsible for providing support and a secure seal for the dryer door.  It helps to maintain proper alignment of the door, preventing air leaks or excessive noise during the drying cycle.

A bad frame can occur due to accidental impacts, wear and tear over time, or improper handling. Signs of a faulty inner frame include a loose or misaligned door, difficulty in closing or opening the door smoothly, or gaps between the door and the dryer body.

Symptoms of a bad frame include:

• A loose or misaligned door
