The lint filter in your dryer is used to collect lint as it passes through the dryer vent. If you notice that your dryer is not providing enough heat, or if it takes too long to dry, you may need to replace the lint filter. You should also replace the lint filter if you notice it is damaged during regular maintenance. Many of our customers have rated this repair as easy. To complete the repair, simply remove the old lint filter and replace it with the new one. You may want to use a flat head screwdriver to remove any residual lint before you install the new filter.

Is it necessary to order anything else with the lint filter? Will it fit precisely in my model or has there been a design change which would require a new grill and housing compartment as well?
For model number DLE2050W

Excessive lint dust in the laundry room, vent pipe is sealed at every joint with no obvious leaks, ordered new lint screen, suspect the felt seal is defective. Any thing else to troubleshoot?
For model number DLE3733U
Hello Martin, Thank you for the question. We suggest opening up the cabinet to see if there is a lint build up inside that needs to be cleaned. We also suggest cleaning the Duct where the filter fits down into. We hope this helps!

Dryer not heating
I followed video instruction in disassembling and set screws from each section into diferent small bowls in the order they were removed. Hardest part was some of the screws were really hard to get loose without stripping them and my control panel did not match video but I figured it out. Replacing the parts were easy and putting it back together. While it was apart I cleaned everything including fan blower wheel. Thanks for the right parts and your online video. With your help and a prayer this 62 year old woman fixed the problem and dryer runs like new.
I took the old lint filter out and put it in the garbage. I the put the new lint filter in the dryer. Problem solved

Doesn’t fit
The parts do not fit my dryer. The guide cover is about 1/4 in off. Screws don’t align with the holes. I can get one screw in but than Carly get the other one aligned. Lots of wasted time and frustration.
After trying duct tape to fix the tear, I decided to see if I could just order a new one. Part Select was the first company I found listed, so I ordered one. It was not expensive and it was delivered very quickly! It works so well s as me I’m a very happy customer!

Great service! The Right product!
This was the 2nd lint trap I ordered! The first was from a diffrent company and it was WRONG! No felt! This was the correct product I needed! The sales man I talked to made sure it was correct before I placed the order, which was a relief. In this world good customer service is hard to get but at partselect it was GREAT! I will definitely buy from them again! Thanks for GREAT SERVICE!

Right Part - Wrong Fit
I received the correct part which I ordered, however it does not correctly fit into the Dryer as it should. It does not go all the way down into the slot for the filter and sticks up from the slot the entire length of the filter about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch and drying the clothes they are catching on to the edges of the filter and preventing the process of drying without having to open and get the clothes being caught off the edges or top ends of the filter.
