This dryer motor kit powers the drum and blower. Replacing a weak or failed motor restores proper tumbling and airflow so the dryer starts reliably and dries loads more evenly.

• Drives the drum via the belt and turns the blower wheel for airflow
• Helps resolve: dryer hums but won't start, drum won't turn, or stops mid-cycle
• Can reduce loud buzzing/grinding noises from the motor area
• Restores consistent operation when the motor overheats and trips its protector

• Disconnect power; turn off gas supply to gas dryers before servicing
• Remove panels to access the drive system; release belt tension and remove the drum as needed
• The blower wheel threads onto the motor shaft—support it carefully; many GE dryers use a reverse (left-hand) thread
• Transfer wiring and any reusable hardware to the new motor; test before reassembly

The High Limit Thermostat is an OEM part for GE dryers. It is a safety device that prevents the dryer from overheating by cutting off power to the heating element if the temperature exceeds a safe limit. This helps protect the dryer and the user from potential fire hazards.

Causes of a bad high limit thermostat can include electrical faults, repeated exposure to high temperatures, or wear and tear over time. When the thermostat fails, it may either keep the dryer from heating or cause it to overheat.

Symptoms of a bad high limit thermostat include:

• The dryer not heating at all
• The dryer overheating and shutting down mid-cycle
• Clothes taking longer than usual to dry
• The dryer running but not producing any heat

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