The Dryer Front Bearing Drum Slide (White, 2-Pack) is an OEM replacement part for GE dryers. These slides are located on the front panel of the dryer and work to support the drum as it rotates. The white slides are designed to reduce friction between the drum and the panel, ensuring smooth operation and helping to prolong the life of the appliance.
Over time, these slides can wear out due to constant movement, heat, and friction. When worn or damaged, the drum may not rotate as intended, leading to noise and reduced efficiency.
This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
We cleaned out all ducts carefully and did other basic troubleshooting but it did not help. Began to research the problem on-line and discovered that this dryer has two heating elements. One can fail while the other continues to provide heat - but with a large impact on drying time. Watched youtube videos and how to take apart the dryer to reach the heating coils. Tested the heating elements for continuity with tester and the outer loop had no continuity indicating it was broken somewhere. ... Read more

Illuminates your dryer drum for better visibility when loading and unloading clothes. Replace when burned out or flickering. Verify fit with your model.
It was an easy repair just screwed in. The ordering process and simple no hassle and got here fast! I will definitely order from you again Read more
Supports and stabilizes the dryer drum for smooth rotation. Replace if shaft is worn, bearing is damaged, or drum wobbles or sinks at the rear.
I replaced the slide bearings a few years back. A few months later the rear bearing started to go so I replaced that one. Bad idea. Replace these two at the same time. The wobbling from the rear bearing failure caused accelerated wear on the slide bearings. Without the money to fix it I ran it as it was. Another bad idea. The drum not only chewed through the slide bearings, but eventually the assembly as well. I replaced the whole assembly and rear bearing at one time a couple days ago. It was... Read more
Supports the rear dryer drum for smooth, quiet rotation. Replace if you hear squeaking, screeching, or thumping during cycles. Verify fit with your model.
First symptoms were squeaking drum. This is probably when new glide strips might have been all that we needed. But I put off fixing it... and I put it off some more. Noises got louder, squeaking became screeching, then it started to vibrate loudly. The front drum bearing (really just a plastic arch that the drum rides on) had broken, and with the drum in a canted position, the rear bearing sleeve got messed up too. I ordered the front drum support bearing, and also a rear drum bearing... Read more
Dryer not heating or stops mid-cycle? A faulty inlet thermistor may prevent proper temperature regulation. This sensor monitors incoming air temperature.
Replaced the inlet control thermis (thermostat) . Now it completes the cycle but clothes are not 100 % dry. I would add 15 minutes more and that helps. FYI: you don't need to remove the drum, just remove the top cover and that will give you enough space to replace the sensor Thank you Appliance Parts for your fast speed of delivery. Read more
Dryer won't start or humming when you press start? The door switch signals when the door is closed. Easy 15-minute DIY repair with basic tools.
I was trying to troubleshot a problem I had with my GE dryer not starting. I went to AppliancePartsPros.com because they have excellent DYI videos on how to make repairs. I determined that the problem was in the push start switch. I ordered the switch online and it took 3 days to arrive. It took 5 minutes to replace the switch and the dryer works perfectly. Read more
Dryer door won't stay closed? A worn or broken door strike prevents proper latching. Easy 5-minute DIY fix with basic tools. Video guide included.
Replaced door strike and door latch Read more
Idler pulley for dryer drum assembly. Maintains belt tension to enable smooth drum rotation. Replace if worn, cracked, or causing noise during operation.
The Dryer is 10 years old GE Front Load DPVH890JEMG. The drum would intermittently not rotate at the beginning of a cycle and occasionally would rotate but then start and stop throughout the cycle. I did not check error codes, but the windings on the motor were black. So it seemed reasonable that the motor was overheating and sending a signal to the control board to stop. There is one screw under the knob and 9 screws on the front to get inside. I decided to replace the bearings, capacitor,... Read more
Seals the drum bearing assembly to prevent air leaks and maintain drying efficiency. Replace when worn, cracked, or if dryer is noisy. Confirm fit with model.
Went ahead and replaced the pulley as well the drum bearing sleeve and O ring, drum belt and the front drum bearing slides. Put the unit back together and she ran like a top! Read more
Dryer door won't stay closed? This door latch secures the door and activates the safety switch. Easy snap-in repair, typically 5-15 minutes.
My GE dryer from the late 80's/early 90's was squealing when it would start up, belt or bearing I was thinking. I found a manual online that covered my model and I watched a video on this site that showed me how to take it all apart, mine was a bit different but the principles were the same. I took it apart and added some quick-disconnects to 2 wires so next time I can take the front panel off easily. When I got to the bearing it looked worn but not bad so I cleaned it and put it back. ... Read more
The bearing retainer secures the drum bearing assembly in your dryer. Replace if cracked, broken, or worn to restore proper structural support.
A few months back I changed out the "Bearing Slides" on the front side of the drum thinking that would stop the annoying squeaking every time we use the dryer. They were very worn and one was missing. But to my dismay it only lessened it by about 10%. After doing a bit more research I discovered the "Rear Shaft Bracket Assembly" also needed replacement. The tip was worn way down and clearly the source of the noise. It was actually a very simple repair except for the fact that the key to the... Read more
Dryer shuts off mid-cycle or overheats? The outlet control thermistor monitors exhaust temperature. Moderately difficult repair requires drum removal.
My first attempt was to replace the main board and then the thermistor, should have done this the other way around, turned out it was the thermistor, a pretty cheap part, dryer works great now. Repair requires removing the drum but overall not too difficult or time consuming. Read more
If your dryer won't heat properly or makes squeaking noises, the blower wheel may be worn or damaged. Moderate DIY repair that restores air circulation.
New wheel didn't look different than the other wheel, but we put it on, it works and we're very happy. Read more
Secures the blower wheel to the motor shaft. Replace when the wheel loosens or moves, causing rattling or rubbing noise. Includes clamps and screw.
Had to remove the front and top panel on the dryer, disconnect the belt and remove the drum. From there it was two screws to slide out the motor assembly with the fan attached and one bolt to remove the clamp and screw kit holding the fan in place. They kit was worn and was allowing the fan to move forward and back on the motor shaft. Once replaced it took about 5 minutes to reassemble and my dryer now purs like a kitten. Read more
