Parts for Ge PTD60EBSR2WS: Trap Duct Assembly Parts

Fix a dryer duct trap that won't open smoothly or rattles with replacement trap slides. Restores proper vent access and eliminates binding issues.

This duct trap channels dryer exhaust into the home venting system and helps catch lint and debris before it reaches the house ductwork. It restores proper vent routing for safer, more efficient dryer performance. What it does:

• Funnels dryer exhaust into the home's vent duct while capturing loose lint and debris
• Helps prevent lint buildup in the house venting path that can cause reduced airflow
• Restores correct alignment and connection between the dryer's exhaust outlet and ducting
• Commonly replaced when cracked, warped, missing, or not sealing properly

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before beginning any work
• Remove dryer from the wall enough to access the exhaust outlet; some models require vent removal
• Inspect surrounding ductwork and replace any damaged venting or clamps as needed for a secure seal
• Use basic hand tools; ensure vent connections are tight and route venting to manufacturer guidelines

Seals the gap between the drum and front panel to prevent air leaks and noise. Replace if worn, damaged, or causing squeaking sounds. Verify fit with your model.

Replace your worn dryer door seal gasket to restore airtight closure, prevent heat loss, and improve drying efficiency. Easy installation for most models.

Seals the lint screen housing to prevent lint bypass into internal components. Replace if lint escapes or seal is worn. Confirm fit with your model.

These moisture sensor rods detect how damp the load is and signal the control, helping the dryer stop at the right time. Replacing worn or coated rods restores accurate Auto Dry performance and reduces damp loads or overdrying.

• Measures moisture by sensing conductivity across the rods as clothes tumble
• Sends feedback to the timer/control to adjust cycle length on Sensor/Auto Dry
• Safe symptom matches: cycles end too soon or run too long, clothes remain damp, Auto Dry doesn't advance reliably
• Residue from dryer sheets/fabric softener can insulate the rods and affect readings

• Disconnect power (and shut off gas supply for gas models) before servicing
• Access the rods at the front bulkhead/lint filter housing; panel removal may be required on some models
• Remove mounting fasteners, transfer wiring in the same orientation, and secure the new rods
• Ensure the sensing surfaces are clean and unobstructed; test on an Auto Dry cycle
