Parts for DEIX2-96105A: Subdeck / Drum Door Parts

The Safety Thermostat is an OEM part for Fisher & Paykel dryers. As an important safety device, the thermostat monitors the dryer drum temperature and automatically shuts off the dryer if temperatures become excessively high. It plays a protective role by preventing overheating that could pose a fire hazard.

Causes can be normal wear and tear over extended use.  
Symptoms of a bad safety thermostat include:

• The dryer failing to heat or heating unevenly
• Abnormal drying times as heat is improperly regulated
• Shut offs mid-cycle accompanied by flashing lights or error codes

The Thermostat Auto Reset is an OEM replacement part for Fisher & Paykel electric and gas dryers. Precisely located within heating circuits, it monitors internal air temperatures and automatically resets the thermostat when needed. 

Causes of a faulty reset thermostat can include:  

• Fluctuating or inconsistent vent temperatures   
• Frequent on-off cycling of gas valves or heating coils
• Triggering of drying error codes and safety shutoffs
• Inability to detect correct drying time end points

Symptoms involve temperature swings, premature shutoffs, and unfinished loads. Long term exposure to heat or combustion byproducts can degrade sensor function over time. 

The Door Latch is an OEM component specifically designed for Fisher & Paykel dryers. Located internally, this mechanism securely holds the dryer door shut during operation. 

Prolonged use can cause wear to latch parts like hooks, brackets, and striking plates. Fatigue may prevent components from maintaining a tight door seal.

Symptoms of a failing door latch include:

• The inability to fully secure or “catch” the door closed  
• Audible rattling or looseness of door parts during cycles
• Gaps appearing around the edge of the rubber door seal

Causes range from standard metal wear to impacts dislodging or deforming latch pieces over time. Fractures risk door opening without warning during heated cycles.

A packet of two spring hinges designed to restore proper door tension and alignment. These replacement hinge springs help the door open and close smoothly and maintain safe, even seating. What it does:

• Provides spring tension for the appliance door hinge mechanism to help the door stay properly aligned
• Helps correct sagging, misalignment, or uneven closing caused by worn hinge springs
• Restores smooth opening and closing motion and consistent door seating
• Works as a direct replacement where the OEM part number 395028P is specified

• Two spring hinge assemblies

• Basic mechanical replacement; refer to your appliance service manual or parts diagram for correct hinge location and orientation
• Disconnect power and follow safety procedures (unplug appliance or shut off breaker) before servicing
• Use appropriate hand tools and avoid forcing components—inspect surrounding hinge hardware and replace if damaged

This is a stainless steel #8 x 5/8" Phillips screw sold in a pack of 10 — a direct-fit fastener for appliance panels, brackets, and trim. Durable corrosion resistance helps maintain secure assemblies over time. What it does:

• Fastens panels, brackets, trim pieces, and other appliance components using a Phillips driver
• Stainless finish resists rust and corrosion in humid or wet appliance areas
• Sized for common appliance mounting points where #8 x 5/8" screws are specified
• Helps restore loose or missing fasteners that cause rattling or poorly seated panels

• Ten (10) stainless steel #8 x 5/8" Phillips screws

• Use the correct #2 Phillips bit and moderate torque to avoid stripping the head or damaging mating parts
• Tighten until snug; do not overtighten plastic components
• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing internal panels or wiring
• Keep loose screws away from children and dispose of packaging responsibly

These buffer pads cushion the dryer drum/door area to reduce noise and wear, helping the drum spin smoothly and preventing metal-on-metal contact. They restore proper spacing and reduce vibration for quieter operation. What it does:

• Cushions the drum and door interface to prevent rubbing and reduce noise
• Absorbs minor shocks to limit drum wobble and vibration
• Protects drum and cabinet surfaces from wear and scoring
• Helps maintain proper drum alignment during rotation

• Disconnect power (and gas supply if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Inspect mounting surfaces and remove old adhesive or debris before installing new pads
• Replace both pads if one is worn to keep drum support balanced
• Test the appliance on a short cycle after installation to ensure quiet operation
