Fairly easy repair... my machine is working great
Parts select is great! The help with diagnosing your issue is amazing. I have replaced several parts in the dryer and fixed my fridge ice maker as well. I have saved hundreds using the partselect web site!

dryer heating element
The heating element arrived in two days and it was not at all difficult to install. As of this writing the element is working fine and we have dry clothes one again.

Dryer - no heat
My dryer works AWESOME, just like a new one. It had been drying slower for a couple years when on high heat, but ran about same time when on medium heat, but about 10 days ago I went to bed and it was still tumbling in the morning. Found both heating elements broke, so I figure the low heat was already broke and running on medium heat for couple years.

Plug and play
Exact part I needed. Removed the old and installed the new. I probably could have saved a little money and just got the heating coils and re strung it. But this was much more simple to install, plug and play. Also this part comes with a new bearing housing and I bought a new bearing sleeve. My dryer is like new now.

Loud scrapping sqeaks
Diagnostics, ordered front and back bearing. Added the belt because I was there. Parts came quickly. disassembled, shot photos of wire assemblies. Unprepared for element and lint trap housing failure as the heating element was only 1/2 functional, made followup ordered which included the green and white shims. Note, front bearing replace
... Read morement does not come with wear shims, disappointing. Very inexpensive and should just be part of replacement package. Reassembled in reverse order, tricky part was the belt reinstall. New light made the repair complete.
Checked the fuse box to see if any breakers tripped on the two 120 lines feeding the dryer.
Checked for clogged exhaust vents/hose/etc, cleaned.
Some paint flaking off inner drum around heat vent.
Unplug & disassembled unit. Took pictures for reference to help with reassembly later. Upon removing drum,
... Read more found sagging heat coils, one broken, some heat damage to the housing near the top. Determined that more than just coils needed replacing.
Also checked each of the three heat sensors (cycling thermostat, high limit thermostat & safety thermostat) with the digital multimeter. All were positive continuity for low temps.
Tested ONLY the cycling thermostat on the kitchen stove with burner set to warm. Check burner temp with meat thermometer to see it exceed 120F. Continuity broke at high temp. Although the cycling thermostat seemed ok with my generic test, I decided to replace it anyway.
My understanding of the Safety Thermostat & High Limit Thermostat is that they work like safety fuses, breaking at dangerous temps, but not resetting afterward. So these were only tested at room temperature, not with heat.
With the unit open, I checked other components for signs of wearing out. Also cleaned the unit more thoroughly.
Reassembled in stages. The belt is the trickiest part to get back on the motor & tension pulley, it's just a little awkward to reach. Tested to make sure the drum moved freely and belt was correct before finishing the reassembly.
Checked to make sure the dryer was still level, after all the moving around, disassembly & reassembly.
Ran several supervised test loads. Felt the temperature. No tripped breakers or smoke. Exhaust was flowing unhindered. Clothes got dry.
I bought the Heating Element and Housing together so that I would not have to stretch and run the coils and to save time! 1. I removed the two screws that hold the top down by opening the dryer door and removing the two screws at the top of the door opening. Then I pulled the top off. 2. Then I removed the two screws on the top
... Read more inside of the dryer on the left right and took the front off. 3. Next I spread the dryer open a little and pulled the drum out while pushing the belt off the back of the drum. 4. Then I removed the screws to the sensors and removed them from the housing. 5. Then I removed the four screws holding the heating element housing to the back of the dryer and took it out and put in the new peace. 6. Do everything in reverse when putting the dryer back together.

dryer wasn't getting hot
1. removed two screws to take off top. 2. removed two screws to take off front. 3. Took belt off pulley and removed drum. 4. inspected old heating element at back of dryer - saw broken wire 5. replaced heating element (round w/ heating coil) 6. Re-assembled dryer
Helpful hints: 1. mark down or take
... Read more pictures of all wires before removal - easy to mix them up 2. when you re-attach drum-belt, it should be taught. Comes straight down wall around metal pulley and then forms an "S" as it wraps around plastic pulley on way up. To re-attach, stick both arms into dryer - one to pull plastic-pulley and other to attach belt.

Heater element went out
First of all, unplug the dryer. I removed the two screws on the front of the cabinet to remove the top. I then took out the screws to remove the dial panel. Release the belt for the drum through the access hole in the rear of the dryer. Remove the front cover and pull the drum assembly out.
Remove the element disc from the

This job was easy for me as I am a tinkerer by nature. The hardest part of the whole job was waiting on the part, which by the way was ordered on a Sunday evening and I had the replacement in my hands and back in the dryer running by 1:00 PM on the following Tuesday!
I book marked this website and WILL refer it to others who simply need a repair, not a costly new appliance!

Heating coils come on and off during cycle. Should they stay on during the cycle or cycle on and off.. i've replaced the cycle thermostat to with no improvement of heating .. thank you
For model number DBSR453EB2WW
Hi Jeff,
Thank you for your question. Yes, your heating element is supposed to cycle on an off. You may have to test both the high limit thermostat and your thermal cut off on your element to make sure they are working. For a dryer, how well it heats counts a lot on air flow. Make sure that your duct and venting has no lint blocking the air ways or else your appliance will not heat correctly. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

The dryer does not heat at all. How do i know if it is the cycling thermostat or the heating element ? Secondly, in reinstalling the drum, is it difficult to the get the pully in position?
For model number DWWXR463EG1WW
Hi Daniel,
Thank you for your question. You can actually test both of those parts with a multi meter. When testing, if the meter does not move from its original position then you will know that part is not working. It should not be difficult to get the pulley into position. You just have to pull it into position. Good luck with your repair.

Dryer shuts off after 10-15 minutes running on medium heat with the timed dry cycle set to 30 - 40 minutes. I replaced all of the sensors (3) around the heater element pan as well as the sensors (2) around the blower housing. The dryer seems to heat up ok but it just shuts off after a few minutes. It will restart if time is left in the cycle, apparently after a sensor(s) has reset. I cleaned the dryer of all lint, even installed a new dryer vent with a length of under 10 feet. I don't know what to try next. Heater element? Control board? Thanks in advance for your help.
For model number DCVH660EHBB
Hello, Thank you for your question. Looking at your model I would look into replacing the thermal fuse, and thermostats, as well as look into the control board. If the thermal fuse or thermostats have been tripped they will not allow the unit to fully heat to continue cycle. If those are find the issue could be the timer which is located in the control board. We hope this helps.

My GE dryer won't t dry my clothes. Did you have idea what parts do I need to replace? What parts do I need to check first?
For model number PDSR473ET5WW
Hello Gerry, Thank you for the question. If the appliance is not heating, we suggest testing the Cycling Thermostat, the High Limit Thermostat, Cycling Thermostat and the Safety Thermostat with a Multimeter to check the Ohms and continuity. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
I have installed the new heating element for my GE dryer, but why does it keep tripping my breaker switch? It didn’t do this before, any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
For model number DBXR453E
Hi Daniel, thank you for reaching out. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest you check the heating element for a short circuit. If the element has shorted out, it will cause the circuit breaker to trip. You may also need to check the wiring, as a wire may be loose in the electrical panel, which is causing a short circuit. If the problem persists, you may need to check the breaker itself, as it might be worn out and tripping needlessly. We hope this information helps!

Can I replace the element without replacing the housing. My housing is fine but the element is broke
For model number DBXR463ED1CC
Hi Jack, Thank you for reaching out. The Heater Element Coil Kit is listed as PartSelect Number PS265605. We hope this helps!
I replaced the heating element on my dryer but realized the purple element wire on the right hand side of the heating element has no conductivity so i'm thinking maybe it's bad. It should have conductivity correct? What is this wire for and what is the part number for it so i can order? Thanks
For model number DX2300EG1WW
Hi Aaron,
Thank you for your inquiry. Yes your wire should have conductivity. Unfortunately I would not be able to tell you what the wire is for without looking at your model. The wire is more than likely part of your appliances wire harness. Unfortunately it does not look like that part is available. You may have to contact your manufacturer to get the part number. Good luck with your repair.

For model number DCVH515EF0WW
Hello Randy, Thank you for the question. This is just the element and the housing that holds the element coil. The Bearing parts are sold separate. We hope this helps!
Hello George, Thank you for the question. We suggest testing the Cycling Thermostat, High Limit Thermostat, Safety Thermostat and the Heating Element. We hope this helps!
