White Westinghouse Dryer Cap Or Cover

The Lint Filter Cover is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. This part protects and houses the lint filter. The cover also prevents items from falling into the lint trap area, which could potentially cause blockages or damage to the dryer. 

Causes of a bad Lint Filter Cover can range from physical damage due to accidental impact or improper handling, to normal wear and tear from repeated use.

Symptoms of a bad Lint Filter Cover include:

• Difficulty fitting the cover into its slot, which may indicate warping or damage.
• Visible cracks or breakage on the cover, compromising its ability to secure the lint filter properly.
• Increased lint buildup outside the filter area, suggesting that the cover is not sealing correctly.

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

This lint cover is the exterior housing that holds and protects the dryer's lint screen, helping keep lint and debris contained for safer, more efficient drying. It's a direct-replacement style part designed to restore proper lint capture. What it does:

• Holds the dryer lint screen in place so lint is collected instead of entering the cabinet
• Prevents lint and debris from falling into the blower and exhaust path
• Helps maintain proper airflow through the lint screen area
• Commonly replaced when cracked, warped, or when the screen no longer seats securely

• One lint cover (housing) as shown

• Disconnect power to the dryer before attempting service
• Access may require removing the dryer's top or front panel; keep fasteners organized
• Inspect the lint screen and surrounding seals while replacing the cover
