DPXR475EW1WW General Electric Dryer - Instructions

1st I suspected it's just the timer knob so I ordered the knob. Soon as I was installing the knob it was too loose, when I inspected the timer stem it was also broke. So I ordered a timer. Soon as the timer arrived, I installed the timer and tested the dryer then it came on.

Replaced drum bearing part and white slides.The problem was that it was not the drum slide support. It appears to be the the drum rear bearing of whch I am now ordering. The bearing replacement is a little more difficult, but I have taken this on as a challenge

Faulty Door switch. Dryer would heat up so I knew it wasn't thermostat or element related.

After some research on the internet, I deduced the squeaking sound in our dryer was due to defective drum glides. I ordered a set of four of the white type, knowing only our model requires four glides, but not knowing there are two types for two locations. After disassembling the dryer I realized I needed more parts - two green slides and a new top bearing assembly. The dryer drum had eaten thru glides and into the plastic assembly. That was the reason for the squeaking noise - metal sliding against hard plastic. I ordered the additional parts directly from the manufacturer to ensure I got it right. After all the parts arrived, the repair was easy and took less than 30 minutes. I actually had my 17 year-old daughter do the work to teach her some skills. I just instructed her and stepped in on assembling the top that was just a bit tricky to put back on. Problem fixed.

TOO EASY to repair. WORKS GREAT>

Dryer would turn on when you pushed the "on" button, but as soon as you let go, it would turn off. Found the plastic door switch cracked (from slamming door closed). Unplugged the dryer. Unscrewed the two screws inside the top of the door to unfasten the top panel. Took the top panel off. Then unscrewed the two screws on the side to unlatch the front panel. Used plyers to take the 3 wires off the switch and slid the switch through the front of the door. Juat remember where the wires go. Then inserted new switch and connected the wires. Vacuumed out the dryer and reassembled. It took about 20 minutes and was easy! If I can do it, you can!!!

remove front and top cannover's from dryer.remove plastic inside bearing housing and plastic bearing slides replace worn out bearing slides with new ones. needed 4 bearings direction suggested only two....

We ordered a timer knob from partselect.com and within 24 hours received our new, better, stronger time knob in the mail. We were very impressed with the customer service of this company and will definitely recommend to friends.

opened the package when the part came,(the selection knob) stuck it in the timer hole and turned the dryer on...took less than 15 seconds.

Finding the part number on the site was very easy. Replacement came in a few days. Replacement was very easy. The only thing that might have been tricky was knowing to remove the old metal insert. That issue was covered in the helpful video making this a "no brainer".

I checked the part number on the knob. Found the 1-800 number on a label in the door of the dryer. Called the number and easily ordered the part. The customer service associate that answered my call said it would be here in 3-5 budiness days. To my surprise, it was on my doorstep the next day. I simply placed it where it needed to go and wah-la!! I had a working knob again. My phone call to parts service went very smoothly and delivery was extra speedy!! Very satisfied.

I took the visegrip pliers off the d shaft and simply slid the new knob on with ease. I never doubted my abilities!

It took less than 1 min.Thanks great part.

Pulled old knob straight off (not attached in any way) and then pushed new knob on to replace. It was that easy.

Removed and replaced knob.
