When Should I Replace Filters, Fuses & Venting?
- Lint screen: Clean after every load; replace if torn or frame warped.
- Thermal fuse: If blown, the dryer won’t run/heat — replace and clear vent clogs that caused the overheat.
- Flexible vent hose: Replace damaged or crushed hoses; use rigid venting where possible for best airflow.
- Gas dryer ignition parts: If heat cycles off quickly or never ignites, inspect igniter and gas coils.
Common Dryer Parts & What They Do
- Heating Element
- Generates heat in electric dryers. Opens with age or overheating.
- Thermal Fuse
- Safety fuse that opens on overheat; dryer may not start or heat until replaced.
- High-Limit & Cycling Thermostats
- Regulate temperature and protect from overheating.
- Igniter (Gas)
- Glows to ignite gas. Weak igniter = no heat.
- Gas Valve Coils
- Open the gas valves during ignition; weak coils cause short heat cycles.
- Flame Sensor
- Verifies burner flame in gas dryers; failure = no heat.
- Drive Belt
- Turns the drum. A broken belt stops tumbling.
- Idler Pulley
- Keeps belt tension; worn bearings squeal.
- Drum Rollers & Glides
- Support the drum. Worn parts cause thumping or scraping.
- Blower Wheel
- Moves hot air through the drum and vent; cracked hubs reduce airflow.
- Motor
- Drives the belt and blower. Worn bearings overheat or hum.
- Moisture Sensor
- Detects wet clothes to end cycles at the right time.
- Door Switch
- Stops the dryer when the door opens; failure prevents start.
- Control Board/Timer
- Manages cycle logic; failure leads to erratic operation.

How to Find Your Dryer Model Number
Open the dryer door and check the frame, behind the door, or the cabinet rim. Some models place the tag on the rear panel or inside the lint filter housing. Enter that model number in the search box to view compatible parts.
Dryer Parts FAQ
Why is my electric dryer not heating?
Most often a failed heating element, blown thermal fuse, or faulty thermostat. Check venting first — restricted airflow causes overheating and failures.
Gas dryer warms and then goes cold?
Weak gas valve coils commonly fail after a few minutes. Inspect coils, igniter, and flame sensor.
What parts fix squeaking or thumping?
Worn drum rollers, idler pulley, or a cracked belt. A repair kit often restores quiet operation.
Do you charge restocking fees?
No — we never charge restocking fees on standard returns.
