GLEQ642CAS1 Frigidaire Dryer - Instructions

The dryer was heating but the drum would not turn. We opened it up to see what the problem was. As soon as we opened it, we saw the belt was broken. I ordered a new one and after two trips to the laundromat I was ready to get the dryer fixed. That weekend we tackled the job. First I did a Google Search on Westinghouse dryer repair, found several ....one with a video:-) Punched in our model number and they went through the whole procedure....while it took them only 10 minutes, we took a little longer. But they had great ideas how to hold the drum while repairing, etc. Being recently laid-off this was a fantastic find. I have no idea how much a service call would be on the dryer nor could I afford a new one at this time.... Great old American Know How got it done.

Dismantled the dryer to determine that the belt was broken. Called a local supply outlet to request a belt. They said they couldn't find one. Did an online search and found Part Select. Called with the model number and within three days the part was delivered. Replaced the belt and the dryer was working within an hour. Hardest part was getting the dryer out of the laundry room. I would certainly call PartSelect again if I needed a part.

Taking apart cleaning putting back together I don't have any h-t lube so ill be doing it again. Thanks for the part ill be calling again!

Simply pulled the old knobs off & put the new ones on.

It is disappointing that the knobs cracked at all. I guess all the repair guys who've come out since our kitchen remodel are right - nothing lasts anymore & expect a repair within 5 yrs.

I ordered on a Monday & the knobs were delivered the next day, even though I chose only standard shipping. I was very, very pleased with PartSelect.com.

Very easy, slipped the old one off and placed the new one on

This was the greatest part ordering experience I think I have ever encountered.

No problems with ordering, arrived on time and works beautifully.

Removed the timer know and inserted the new one in its place. less than one minute work.

Excellent response and fast delivery from Parts Select.

Will use again, if necessary.

well guys replacing the knob was no big deal, but i initially thought that the timer was bad. i jumped the gun and ordered the timer on a wednesday and discovered on thursday upon further investagation that the back of the dial shaft was cracked creating the whole problem, so i ordered that and everything is fine once installed (& the timer is on the way back). my advice is check thoroughly and order once, you get less laughter from your wife on this one. thanx mcsgt(robert)

Ordered the knob, received it immediately, pushed the knob on without the assistance of any tools. I am handyman challenged sothis was a huge accomplishment for me. Thanks!

Pulled old knob off and replaced with new knob. The hardest part of the repair was finding the part and partselect made that easy as well.

replaced the knob. The key was the photos. It was celar that the part you had was the one I needed beacuse the phots were clear and with enough angles to assure me I was orederig what I needed.

I grabbed the new knob I ordered from Partselect.com with my right hand, aligned it, and put it on. Works like a charm!

I had my landscape guy, who volunteered to look at the dryer since he's also an electrician, come in and take a quick look. he turned the knob, pulled it off and told me the inside was cracked so it would not grab the turn mechanism. Who knew? I got the model number from the dryer door, checked in on the internet for Fridgedaire parts, found Partselect.com, ordered part, came next day, knob fits, dryer works. end of story. THANK U!!!

I replaced this belt once before but it squeaked for over a year. This belt from Part Select was much better quality and now the dryer works perfectly, no squealing!

I simply put new knob on the little metal post where it belonged. Simple as pie.

i order the part on line came within 2 day push on knob that easy.
